Dust in galaxies can be mapped either by the FIR/submillimeter emission, the optical or infrared reddening of starlight, or the extinction of a known background source. ... We find that distant galaxies are predominantly in low-extinction sections marked by the color maps, indicating that their number depends both on the cloud cover of Spitzer-resolved dust structures, mostly the spiral arms, and a diffuse, unresolved underlying disk. ...

. You can compare any two versions of a file that is under the control of SCCS with the sccsdiff command: /usr/sccs/sccsdiff -r version -r version s. filename . Using this command produces a line by line difference between the two versions of the file. Results are shown in the same format as that produced by the diff command. Examples .

The theory predicts that the oscillation period should be proportional to the square root of the oscillating mass, including the mass of the clip. Note that gravity plays no part here: the oscillation period would be the same on the Moon or in zero-g. Denoting square root by SQRT, we have . ...

... In short, ROMAFOT performs the best fit by comparing a given pixel to the value of the PSF at the centre of the pixel. This approximation is valid if the pixel size is small compared with the scale length of the point images. ... With the commands below the integral of the PSF over the pixel area is computed via the Gauss - Legendre integration formulae which are characterized by a high precision for a correspondingly small number of subpixels where the PSF must be calculated. ...

... In order to compare the number of different evolutionary stages obtained and X-ray luminosity of the chosen X-ray sources with the observed galactic values we use the sum of C/O+O/C , where C and O are the calculated and observed values of a given binary type, respectively. If we make comparison for a number of different binary species (for example, we compare the number of CV, number of X-ray pulsars,   total X-ray luminosity of LMXB, etc.), we write this criterion in the form: . ...
