Comet Lovejoy Before Galaxy M63 . ... Credit Copyright: Damian Peach Explanation: Comet Lovejoy was captured last week passing well in front of spiral galaxy M63. Discovered only three months ago and currently near its maximum brightness, Comet Lovejoy can be seen near the Big Dipper from dark northerly locations before dawn with the unaided eye. ...

... 2010 June 7 . Comet McNaught Becoming Visible to the Unaided Eye . ... Explanation: A new comet is brightening and is now expected to become visible to the unaided eye later this month. ... Although predicting the brightness of comets is notoriously difficult, current estimates place Comet McNaught as becoming visible to unaided northern hemisphere observers in late June, before sunrise, and in early July, after sunset. ...

. The following is a list of the currently installed versions of the CIMA. The links refer to the CIMA version log page . Normal: version 3.0 - this is the next version of CIMA which has become the new default version --- NOTE that this version uses a new syntax for command file observations, uses new configuration files and needs source files with full velocity information . Old: version 2.2 - this is the old version of CIMA You can return to the main CIMA page by clicking here .

... What work is currently being done to improve the flux calibration accuracy for echelle modes? ... Starting early in Cycle 11, monthly offsetting for echelle modes was turned off to minimize these types of calibration problems. ... We are currently working on redetermining the echelle flux calibration so that it is self-consistent with the 2-D scattered light algorithm. Time dependence of the sensitivity - Sensitivity-monitor data for the echelle modes are currently under investigation. ...

... In 1930, Trumpler noticed that linear diameters (LD) of open clusters increase with distance (D) from the Sun. ... Since that time, the interstellar absorption has become one of the best studied factor in astrophysics, and we may hope that current OCL distance scales are free from this LD-D correlation. To verify if this is the case we have chosen several modern OCL distance scales and test them with the same clusters and the same angular diameters that Trumpler had used back in 1930. ...

... The ring current (e.g., Frank, 1967) consists of geomagnetically trapped 10 - 200 keV ions (mainly H + , He + , and O + ) and electrons that drift azimuthally around the Earth at radial distances of about 2-7 Re (Earth radii), overlapping the radiation belt region. ... This index can be used to monitor the development of geomagnetic storm (see also geomagnetic activity ), as the main signature (actually definition) of the storm main phase is the build-up of an enhanced ring current. ... Res., ...

... The star formation rate (SFR) of the current SF episode can be estimated from the total H luminosity. ... For the derived total flux F (H )=5.8 erg s -1 cm -2 we obtain a total H luminosity of 10 39 erg s -1 . ... The total mass of ionized gas can be obtained from the average mass density inside the H II region and its volume. An average mass density corresponding to the average electron density of 1 cm -3 within a volume with a diameter of 0.5 kpc yields a total ionized gas mass of 10 6 . ...

... Files in red?history) . ... Auroral Currents . 25H. Birkeland Currents . ... As noted earlier Kristian Birkeland, reporting in 1903 on his expeditions to the auroral zone, proposed that magnetic disturbances accompanying the aurora were caused by large electric currents flowing down the length of auroral formations. ... In later years these currents became known as the auroral electrojets , and considerable debate ranged over their cause and the way their circuit might be completed. ...

The C component of Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 . imaged by Apostolos Christou of Armagh Observatory on 4th April, 2006. ... About one month after its discovery the comet reached its closest point to the Earth (5.73 million miles). ... Current calculations indicate that the main component of the comet, designated SW3C, may reach maximum brightness around May 15th when its distance from the Sun and Earth will be about 93 million miles and 7.5 million miles, respectively. ...

M82 has an angular size of 9 x 4 arcminutes and has very high surface brightness. ... The high surface brightness is due to the very high star formation rate currently operative in M82. The interaction of this star formation pattern and the peculiar distribution of dust in M82 gives rise to its peculiar appearance and its misnomer label as an "exploding galaxy". The high star formation fuels vigorous hydrodynamic winds in the galaxy which can eject material to distances beyond the galaxy. ...

Next: Modes of Operation Up: CCD Scientific Performance Previous: Field of View . Thermal excitation of charge carriers from the valence to the conduction band creates a dark current signal which may vary with position in the array, and also has temporal shot noise variation. ...
