. The following is a list of the currently installed versions of the CIMA. The links refer to the CIMA version log page . Normal: version 3.0 - this is the next version of CIMA which has become the new default version --- NOTE that this version uses a new syntax for command file observations, uses new configuration files and needs source files with full velocity information . Old: version 2.2 - this is the old version of CIMA You can return to the main CIMA page by clicking here .

... As of October 1, 2009, the global rate for the STIS NUV-MAMA dark current has still been occasionally reaching values as high as 13500 counts/s. This high dark current will force use of a signficantly smaller buffer time than would be otherwise needed, and in many cases may push the count rate high enough to make time-tag observations impractical. ... However, we instead found for the NUV MAMA detector an initial global dark rate of between 9000 and 18000 counts/s (a mean of 0.013 counts/s/pixel). ...

... The ring current (e.g., Frank, 1967) consists of geomagnetically trapped 10 - 200 keV ions (mainly H + , He + , and O + ) and electrons that drift azimuthally around the Earth at radial distances of about 2-7 Re (Earth radii), overlapping the radiation belt region. ... This index can be used to monitor the development of geomagnetic storm (see also geomagnetic activity ), as the main signature (actually definition) of the storm main phase is the build-up of an enhanced ring current. ...

Using a combination of instruments on ESO's Very Large Telescope, astronomers have discovered the most massive stars to date, some weighing at birth more than 300 times the mass of the Sun, or twice as much as the currently accepted limit of 150 solar masses. The most extreme of these stars was found in the cluster R136 in the Tarantula Nebula. Named R136a1, it is found to have a current mass of 265 times that of the Sun. ...
