... 2009 December 3 . Polar Ring Galaxy NGC 660 . ... A rare galaxy type, polar ring galaxies have a substantial population of stars, gas, and dust orbiting in rings nearly perpendicular to the plane of a flat galactic disk. ... Polar Ring galaxies can be used to explore the shape of the galaxy's otherwise unseen dark matter halo by calculating the dark matter's gravitational influence on the rotation of the ring and disk. Broader than the disk, NGC 660's ring spans about 40,000 light-years. ...

A rare galaxy type, polar ring galaxies have a substantial population of stars, gas, and dust orbiting in rings nearly perpendicular to the plane of the galactic disk. ... The polar ring component can be used to explore the shape of the galaxy's otherwise unseen dark matter halo by calculating the dark matter's gravitational influence on the rotation of the ring and disk. Broader than the disk, NGC 660's ring spans about 40,000 light-years. ...

... To avoid extensive numerical calculations in the statistical simulations, we treat the continuous evolution of each binary component as a sequence of a finite number of basic evolutionary states (for example, main sequence, red (super)giant, helium (Wolf-Rayet) star,     hot WD), in which stellar parameters significantly differ from each other. ... Figure 2: Schematic representation of the typical evolutionary track of a massive binary system with normal and compact star stages indicated. ...

Seven months ago, on Mar 19, 2008, at 09:12 Moscow time, a new star appeared on the sky. The Sun had already risen over the Russia, but people of the Western hemisphere might be able to see by their eyes a faint starlet near one of Bootes constellation stars. This starlet appeared and faded by an order of magnitude in a minute. Astronomers named it GRB080319B or, informally, the Naked-Eye Burst, as it was twice as bright as human eye can see a star. ...

The C component of Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 . imaged by Apostolos Christou of Armagh Observatory on 4th April, 2006. ... About one month after its discovery the comet reached its closest point to the Earth (5.73 million miles). ... Current calculations indicate that the main component of the comet, designated SW3C, may reach maximum brightness around May 15th when its distance from the Sun and Earth will be about 93 million miles and 7.5 million miles, respectively. ...

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. ...

Geomagnetic storms and substorms are a natural hazard similar to hurricanes, floods etc. ... Solar and geomagnetic activity also probably influences the Earth's climate and human health. ... Under southward directed IMF the Earth's magnetosphere is open to input from the solar wind flow. ... Since practical importance of solar wind measurements was recognized, a number of approaches was developed for prediction of the geomagnetic activity basing on the solar wind data. ...

... The fitting procedure will only converge to a unique solution if the components are linearly independent. ... The task calculates for each pair of component images and fails with an error if any is greater than 0.99. ... Hence components may be linearly independent in masked pixels yet still fail the test within the task. ... Finally, since the Poisson image values are necessarily all , negative values are not allowed in the model components. ...

... Archives . ... The PCA and ICA is used for separating mixed components with some assumptions. ... The need of source separation methods in astronomy has led various adaptations of decomposition methods available. ... I rarely come up with a paper which gathered and summarized component separation methods applicable to astronomical data. In that regards, the following paper seems useful to overview methods of reducing dimensionality for astronomers. [arxiv:0805.0269] . ... Chandra Blog . ...

We present results of new Monte Carlo calculations made with the DIRTY code of radiative transfer of stellar and scattered radiation for a dusty giant late-type galaxy like the Milky Way, which illustrate the effect of the attenuation of stellar light by internal dust on the integrated photometry of the individual bulge and disk components. ... In addition, we find that the structure of the dusty ISM affects more sensitively the observed magnitudes than the observed colors of both bulge and disk. ...

... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

More formally known as IC 2118 , the Witch Head Nebula glows primarily by light reflected from Rigel , located just outside the top right corner of the above image . ... The blue color is caused not only by Rigel's blue color but because the dust grains reflect blue light more efficiently than red. ...
