HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE DAILY REPORT #1912 PERIOD COVERED: 0000Z (UTC) 07/02/97 - 0000Z (UTC) 07/03/97 Daily Status Report as of 184/0000Z 1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED: 1.1 Completed Four Sets of WF/PC-2 6253 (Pure Parallel Archive Program) The WF/PC-2 was used to execute a pure parallel program taking ultraviolet observations running concurrently with prime science observations. ... The observations were completed as scheduled, and no anomalies were reported. ...

... A reality of faint and new ob jects of the catalog is evaluated. Radio sp ectra of NVSS ob jects are plotted and a new distribution of sp ectral indices is found. New information ab out a contribution of background of the faint radio sources with inverted sp ectrum and ab out a "sub-mJy" p opulation of the background radio sources in the cm range is found. ... Candidates of the most distant radio galaxies (z > 4 - 5) catalog are selected by colors from the SDSS counterparts. ...

... Up: Software Systems and Tools . ... The Starlink Software is a collection of astronomical packages and utilities comprising over 120 separate components. When built, the system needs between 500 and 650 MB disk space (without source) making it ideal for distribution on CD-ROM. Each component has been individually packaged into an easy-to-install bundle for users to obtain over the Internet via a ``point and click'' WWW interface from the Starlink Software Store. ...

The Redshift Distribution of Flat-Spectrum Radio Sources at Low Flux-Densities J.P. McKean et al. ... The relative size and completeness of CLASS coupled with its stringent search criteria make it ideal for performing a lens statis- tics analysis. ... These results, as well as forming a vital part of the CLASS lens statistics analysis, will also contribute to our understanding of the at-spectrum radio source population at low ux-densities.. ...

... 172 ] Briefly, the count rate at the detector from a source at a redshift z is . ... Figure 55 shows the ``Green functions'' for the double compact binary merging rate   evolution assuming no collapse anisotropy. ... Another way that diverse peculiarities in the - distribution induced by the sources evolution could arise is connected with a possible non-monotonic character of the star formation rate in galaxies. ... 22 ] Figure  56 shows two-dimensional cuts through the parameter space. ...

... Section 3 of this report and the publication record of staff at the Armagh Observatory demonstrate the completion of a wide range of research projects and individual contributions to astronomical advances during 2004, in addition to the activities described in Sections 4 and 5 of this Annual Report. ... However, the announced flat funding for Financial Year 2004/2005 put severe constraints on the Observatory's ability to sustain its programmes of research, outreach and public understanding of...

... The distribution of redshifts among the DXRBS FSRQs identified so far (Figure 3) is quite similar to that of the 1 Jy and S4 samples. ... A more thorough comparison will have to await completion of our survey and the convolution of the redshift distribution with the WGACAT sky coverage. As has already been mentioned by Hook et al. (1996), selecting flat-spectrum sources is an efficient way of finding high-redshift, radio-loud quasars. ...

... It was found that the Sun lies 9?2 pc above the plane of hte Galactic disk in the direction of North Galactic pole and that F0-F9 stars contribute 0.0035 M /pc 3 to the density of the Galactic disk. ... We used this method to determine the scale height of the subsystem of F stars of the Galactic disk, Z 0 =160?10 pc. ... It is suggested that scale height of the metal-poor stars subsystem is due to the infall of the metall-poor intergalactic gas onto the disk. ...
