... Most of the spirals discussed in the following are well-known starburst galaxies (M 82, NGC 253, etc.) In addition to their nuclear activity, which makes them so popular, the selected galaxies have several other phenomena in common, such as bars, gas outflow, and possibly nuclear rings. ... I compare the group of nearby starburst galaxies with distant ultra-luminous galaxies (Arp 220, NGC 6240, etc.), in which strong tidal interactions cause the radial gas inflow. ...

... Листок 1 (32K) | ... The conjecture, (RH), made by Riemann in 1859, that all nontrivial zeros of ?(s) lie on the line Re(s)=1/2, is still open. I will give an introduction to the theory of the Riemann zeta function, with an emphasis on facts relevant to (RH), in particular equivalent formulations. Generalizations to Dedekind's zeta function and the Selberg class will be considered. ... The functional equation . Hardy's theorem (?(s) has an infinity of zeros on the line Re(s)=1/2) . ...

This widget allows you to offset the telescope. ... Offset type : one of "Object Arc", "Object Arc XY" or "Boresight". ... This is motion on the sky or instrument, so don't worry about cos(dec). ... If you want to move that point (e.g. center your object along a different bit of the slit), then use a boresight offset. ... Note that a +X object xy offset will move the sky in the -X direction on the focal plane, because you are centering something in the +X direction on the boresight. ...
