. This diagram illustrates the relationship between the reference pixel and device pixels (called "dots" below). The image depicts a high resolution (large dot density) laser printer output on the left and a low resolution monitor screen on the right. For the laser printer, one square reference pixel is implemented by 16 dots. For the monitor screen, one square reference pixel is implemented by a single dot. Return to image.

... Empirical and theoretical modeling of 3-D structures in the solar corona is confronted by the tremendous amount of data needed to represent phenomena with a large dynamic range both in size and magnitude, and with a rapid temporal evolution. Octree representation of the 3-D coronal electron distribution offers the right compromise between resolution and size, allowing computation of synthetic images of the solar corona. ... The time interval between images is one day. ...

Description and Technical Details . In 1980s two medium-size horizontal solar telescopes 50/35000 cm with large spectrographs Czerny-Turner made by Carl Zeiss Jena were installed in the Ondњejov observatory. The Czerny-Turner-spectrographs in the Ondњejov observatory called HSFA1 and HSFA2 according to the German name Horizontal-Sonnen-Forschungs-Anlage ("horizontal device for solar research") have been explored for more than two decades. ...

... Armagh Observatory, College Hill, Armagh BT61 9DG, +44 (0)28 3752 2928 . ... This is the first in a series of papers in which we describe and report the analysis of a large survey of Herbig Ae/Be stars in circular spectropolarimetry. Using the ESPaDOnS and Narval high-resolution spectropolarimeters at the Canada-France-Hawaii and Bernard Lyot Telescopes, respectively, we have acquired 132 circularly-polarised spectra of 70 Herbig Ae/Be stars and Herbig candidates. ...

The Doppler shift is the effect of sound increasing or decreasing in pitch as an object moves towards or away from you. ... Light works the same way, except light is shifted to redder colours when an object is moving away, and to blue colours when an object is travelling towards us. ... Almost every object he observed had its light stretched to redder colours, indicating essentially everything in the Universe was moving away from us. ... So the Hubble constant tells us how old the Universe is. ...
