LIGHT SCATTERING BY MULTI-LAYERED NON-CONFOCAL ELLIPSOIDS IN THE RAYLEIGH APPROXIMATION V.G. Farafonov St.Petersburg University of Aerocosmic Instrumentation St.Petersburg, 190000 Russia Abstract The Rayleigh approximation is extended to the case of light scattering by multi-layered non-confocal coaxial ellipsoidal particles. ... The particles are assumed to be in a constant electric field, and a system of Laplace equations with corresponding boundary conditions is considered. ...

The EXTENDED mode (King profile) PSF is used to calculate the fraction assuming a fixed photon energy of 1.5 keV.

Next: Acknowledgements Up: Old neutron star distribution Previous: Discussion . Using ergodicity hypothesis, we show that the old neutron star population in the Galaxy under reasonable suggestions about initial space and velocity distributions of young pulsars can fill a thorus-like region extended up to several tens kiloparsecs above the galactic plane. ... The obtained distribution is undergone by the isotropy and homogeneity tests appropriate to gamma-bursts problem. ...

... Lucas (2000) also mentions the possibility of using the 183 GHz Water-Vapour Radiometers (WVRs) to correct for the emission. A correction based on the WVRs would largely remove the noise due to atmospheric emission, but would also add thermallike noise due to the noise within the radiometer itself. ... 125 100 K /m m K /m m 3 CORRECTING ALMA TOTAL-POWER OBSERVATIONS Each of the 12-m ALMA antennas will have a 183 GHz water vapour radiometer fed from the centre of the focal plane of the antenna. ...

... In this section, we develop a physical model of the secondary as a disk that is centrifugally supported in the radial direction and hydrostatically supported in the vertical direction. We assume that the disk is vertically isothermal and well mixed. ... where is the mean molecular mass of the gas, is the orbital period at the outer edge of the disk in years, and all of the mass of the secondary has been assumed to be concentrated near its center, so the Keplerian approximation is valid. ...

Hot subdwarfs are hots stars with masses somewhat less than that of the Sun. ... They are known as sdB stars because their spectra are dominated by hydrogen lines. ... Normally, a red giant will switch on core helium burning without losingthe layers of hydrogen around the helium core. sdOB stars are related to sdB stars, possibly being the sdB stars which have completed core helium burning and are evolving to become white dwarfs. ... Such stars are known as PG1159 stars and DO white dwarfs. ...

... The project assumes creation of an international space observatory - the interferometer "Earth - Space - Space" in order to perform of astronomical investigations in millimeter, submillimeter and infrared regions with extremely high sensitivity (to a few nanoJanskies units of flux density in continuum spectrum) and extremely high angular resolution (to a parts of microsecond of arc or, possibly, nanosecond). ... radio-interferometric channels of the system "Space - Space", region 0.2 - 3 mm; . ...
