... To determine a lower limit to the sensitivity of current observations to measurements of NS surface temperatures, we have used data from the Einstein Slew Survey (Elvis et al. 1990) to establish temperature limits for 275 pulsars which received nonzero exposure during the survey. ... Filled squares correspond to pulsars actually detected in the survey data; the smaller symbols correspond to upper limits to the count rates. ...

Observation and modelling of main sequence star chromospheres. ... We compare our calculations to recent high res­ olution observations for selected stars in a narrow spectral range ((R­I) џ =0.875\Sigma0.05); we show that Hff line profiles behave as expected, with a tight correlation be­ tween the line width and equivalent width. ... We show that the hydrogen series dominate the radiative cooling in the spectral lines (form 40% to 90%) for Hff emission line stars. ...

... The air just sit there and doesn't get stirred. ... Normally, the air is hottest near the ground and gets cooler as you go up. ... If it weren't for the temperature profile, convection wouldn't occur: Because the temperature decreases with altitude, cold air sits on top of hot air, allowing convection. ... The air above the ground is hot, the air above the water is cold. ... The land cools down faster than the sea, so the air above the ground is colder than the air above the water. ...
