... Direct interactions of 40.75 kHz whistlers with ionospheric plasmas can excite lower hybrid waves to accelerate electrons and, subsequently, yield enhanced plasma lines with rather broad frequency spectra. In contrast, whistler waves propagating from the ionosphere into magnetsophere will interact and precipitate trapped energetic electrons from the inner radiation belts into the lower ionosphere, generating enhanced plasma lines with realtively narrow frequency spectra. ...

... Up: Data Analysis and Processing Techniques . ... Also, a method for quality control of CCD observations is suggested. ... Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

Pointing grid pattern: In a mosaic experiment, you observe a number of pointings - possibly a few to several hundred, depending on the size of the source of interest. ... For a well-illuminated dish, this spacing corresponds roughly to half-power point spacing between field centres. ... Field Naming Convention: When preparing the observe files for an ATCA mosaic experiment, you will create a `mosaic file'. ...

The first run of observations was performed in December 96 -- January 97 at the Italian-French site, Concordia, at Dome C (Antarctica). ...

We cannot observe the way the distant universe accelerates cosmic rays or produces energetic photons, but acceleration processes also occur on our Sun , though on a much more moderate scale. ... That is why such events are often missed by cosmic ray detectors near the equator, where the lowest energies are excluded by the Earth's magnetic field. The best detectors for observing solar particles are therefore those sensitive to the lowest energies of the cosmic radiation. ...

Marc White . ... Turbulent entrainment processes may play an important role in the outflows from young stellar objects at all stages of their evolution. In particular, lateral entrainment of ambient material by high-velocity, well-collimated protostellar jets may be the cause of the multiple emission-line velocity components observed in the microjet-scale outflows driven by classical T Tauri stars. ...
