... Early studies of PMS stars focused on T associations, especially Taurus-Auriga. However, one might expect low mass star formation to be different in OB associations. ... He identified Orion OB1a as the stars northwest of the belt. Orion OB1b is composed of the stars near the belt, including the belt stars and Orionis. ... He finds no perceptible distance change within the Orion OB1b association and finds the distance modulus to be 7.8 and 7.9 for Orion OB1a and OB1b respectively. ...

... We want to know time-scales, and sequences of events, and the ages of stars. ... We would, ideally, like to create a solar comparison sample by finding stars of essentially the same mass, composition, and age and then observing the range of behavior they exhibit. ... At best we can estimate a star 's age. ... Having to construct models that work consistently across a broad range of masses constrains the problem, and yet even for the nearest open clusters we do not know the age to even 10%. ...

... In collaboration with Drs Van Genderen (Leiden, Holland) and Sterken (Brussels, Belgium) papers XV and XVI in the series `Light Variations of Massive Stars' were published. These dealt with the brightness variations of several massive stars in the two nearest neighbour galaxies, namely six stars (R85, R99, R103, R110, R123 and R128) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and two (R42 and R45) in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). ...

... The processing of these associated images presents new challenges to the HST data processing pipelines, which heretofore operated only on single images. ... Stage 1 (CALNICA) calibrates individual exposures without information from other members of the association. ... Stage 2 of calibration (CALNICB) only operates on associated images that have previously gone through CALNICA processing, and creates combined images for each distinct (non-overlapping) pointing within the association. ...

... A. M. Neminsky, P. N. Nikolaev, and D. V. Shovkun . ... The temperature dependence of the magnetic field penetration depth lambda ( T ) is determined down to 0.2 T c by the ac-susceptibility measurements on the Rb 3 C 60 fine powder with small, about 1 K, variation in the grains' superconducting transition temperatures. The lambda ( T ) temperature dependence is exponential at low temperatures, which allows us to determine the energy gap Delta 0 =1.7 k B T c . ...
