... Previous: Background Fluctuation Analysis from the Multiscale Entropy . ... A new measure of information is defined which is based on noise modeling and incorporates resolution scale. Properties of this measure are discussed. ... Additionally it allows for image noise modeling, and subsequent noise removal. ... Hence information- and entropy-based processing technologies will be necessary for the effective design and implementation of large, future generation, image databases. ...

... The large body of near infrared observations presented in Testi et al. (1997; 1998) are analysed with the aim of characterizing the young stellar clusters surrounding Herbig Ae/Be stars. The results confirm the tendency of early Be stars to be surrounded by dense clusters of lower mass "companions", while Ae stars are never found to be associated with conspicuous groups. ... Only the most massive stars (10-20Msun) are found to be associated with dense (10^3 pc^-3) stellar clusters. ...

The total radiative power output from the hot outer layers of six late-type stars (of different spectral types and luminosity class) is derived via an emission measure technique. This analysis was based on observational data from the spectral range 100A to 3000A obtained as a result of three separate satellite missions, i.e. Hubble Space Telescope, International Ultraviolet Explorer and the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer. ...

University Satellites and . Space Science Education . ... It is necessary to select a topic interesting from scientific point of view and simple enough to allow students understand and participate in all stages of experiment from measurements via data analysis to physical inference. ... Solar modulation effects and physical characteristics and analysis of the major solar events are possible only by joining data from space-born and surface particle and radiation detectors. ...

... The large projected area of these lobes has thus allowed us to carry out a unique experiment, in which we have used the Australia Telescope Compact Array to measure the polarisation and Faraday rotation of approximately 300 distant radio galaxies in the direction of Centaurus A. Approximately a third of these sources lie directly behind the lobes, while the remaining two-thirds have positions just outside the lobes, and allow us to account for foreground Faraday rotation in the Milky Way. ...

... The metal abundance gradient in the disk of the Galaxy is found from stars with abundance determination from detailed analysis: d[Fe/H]/dR=(-0.05?0.01) kpc -1 . It is shown that the gradient can be explained by the fact that the disk is constituted of two metallicity groups of stars with an abundance jump between the groups. ...

Using a robust method to identify Pre-Main Sequence (PMS) stars through their photometric excess in the Hн± band, we have recently studied the star formation history in several star burst clusters in the Galaxy, Small and Large Magellanic Clouds. ...

... The Science Operation Department is composed of Astronomers, Telescope Instruments Operators(TIOs) and Data Handling Administrators(DHAs). ... Astronomers have proposed several methods to quantitatively measure the amount of turbulence above the telescope, which the most common ones is Differential Image Motion Monitor (DIMM). In optical testing, the Hartmann test is the common method to test the quality of optical components. ... Hartmann mask consists of 48 lenses. ...

Operating of the superconducting integrated receiver channel of the TELIS atmospheric sounder. ... The noise temperature of the SIR was measured to be as low as 120 K, with an intermediate frequency band of 4 ­ 8 GHz in double sideband operation; the spectral resolution is well below 1 MHz. The SIR was implemented in the three-channel balloon-borne instrument TELIS (TErahertz and submillimeter LImb Sounder) that detects spectral emission lines of stratospheric trace gases (like ClO and BrO). ...

Общий астрофизический семинар САО (2013 год) . ... Temporal and Spectral Properties of Gamma-Ray Bursts" . ... We aim to characterize the observed variability of the prompt emission of GRBs over a large energy range via analysis of spectral lags and other temporal properties such as the minimum characteristic timescale that distinguishes scaling regions from regions of intrinsic noise in GRB samples taken from both the Fermi and Swift databases. ...

... X-ray Diffraction Effects in Defect ZnS Single Crystals. Abstract: . X-ray techniques have been used to investigate single ZnS crystals grown according to Bridgman by vertical oriented crystallization under an argon pressure of 5-6 MPa. ... Some reflections show multiple diffraction. ... The model of the multiple diffraction, based on the assumption that the effect increases when the phase invariant is equal to zero, has been considered. This model describes the experiment satisfactorily. ...

Intensity of atmospheric motions in the mabl retrieved from ocean surface radar imagery M. Mityagina E-mail: mityag@iki.rssi.ru Abstract. The paper is dedicated to the theory and practice of analysis of radar images of sea surface, obtained under unstable atmospheres. In this case, the sea surface reveals wind field variations in the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) caused by atmospheric convec-tive processes, accompanied by air motions with mainly vertical direction. ...

ON THE IMPACT OF THE GALACTIC ABERRATION ON VLBI-DERIVED PRECESSION MODEL Z.M. MALKIN Pulkovo Observatory Pulkovskoe Ch. ... Corrections to adopted precession rate are usually computed from the linear trends in long-term time series of celestial pole offset (CPO), which are the differences between the measured and the theoretical coordinates of the celestial pole. ... CONCLUSIONS We have estimated the impact of GA on parameters of precession-nutation model derived from VLBI observations. ...

With the new data, the astrophysical discussion started in Paper I was continued and focussed on the comparison of the olivine glass data with IRAS LRS spectra of O-rich circumstellar envelopes around Mira stars. ... The new olivine glasses point to the interesting consequence that the temperature for silicate dust grains at the inner edge of circumstellar envelopes must be considerably higher than the values often given in the literature....
