A re-analysis of the published longitudinal field measurements obtained with the low-resolution FORS1/2 spectropolarimeters finds that the measurements of all stars show more scatter from zero than can be attributed to Gaussian noise, suggesting the presence of a signal and/or systematic underestimation of error bars....

... These Frontier Fields will combine the power of HST with the natural gravitational telescopes of high-magnification clusters of galaxies. ... We are soliciting gravitational lensing maps for the last four Hubble Frontier Fields clusters (MACSJ0717.5+3745, MACSJ1149.5+2223, AbellS1063, and Abell 370) based upon the exceptionally deep HST FF imaging and other new ancillary data. ...

PENTICTON SOLAR RADIO FLUX VALUES (from SGD Explanation of Data Reports) Daily Solar Flux Values - Penticton -- Daily measurements of the integrated emission from the solar disc at 2800MHz (10.7cm wavelength) have been made by the National Research Council of Canada since 1947. ... The data are tabulated in two forms: the "observed flux" (S), and the "adjusted flux" (Sa). ... The "observed flux" values are useful in ionospheric physics and other terrestrial consequences of solar activity. ...
