For single quantities, a confidence interval is estimated for the desired significance level. ... When the underlying distribution is normal, the ``Student's'' t and the distributions are used to estimate the confidence intervals for the mean and standard deviation, respectively. ... For this purpose the test variable . ... Special tables give the confidence interval for this test variable. ...

My main field of interest is modelling dust extinction and emission in the disk of spiral galaxies. Radiative transfer simulations are compared to optical, FIR and sub-mm observations to assess the dust mass, distribution relative to star and optical/emission properties. ... I'm also interested in the formation, evolution and survival of dust grains in high-redshift objects, and in comparing the extinction / emission properties of dust with observations of distant sources. ...

Orbital elements of all numbered planets have been determined in IAA all over again on the ground of available observations in the catalog of the Minor Planet Center. ... More detailed information on orbital elements used in the present volume of EMP and their accuracy is given in section "Information on new orbital elements". ... a) information on new orbital elements; . ...

We explore variations in dust emission within the edge-on Sd spiral galaxy NGC 4631 using 3.6-160 ЮМm Spitzer Space Telescope data and 450-850 ЮМm JCMT data with the goals of understanding the relation between PAHs and dust emission, studying the variations in the colors of the dust emission, and searching for possible excess submillimeter emission compared to what is expected from dust models extrapolated from far-infrared wavelengths. ...

... Scheming arXiv:astro-ph abstracts almost an year never offered me an occasion that the fit of the Poisson distribution is tested in different ways, instead it is taken for granted by plugging data and (source) model into a (modified) ? ... Abstract: goodness-of-fit tests based on the Cramer-von Mises statistics are given for the Poisson distribution. ... 2 statistic for testing the goodness of fit in astronomy and this D statistics is considered as a two sided test approximately distributed as a ? ...

... The idea of this page is, to list the publicly available software which was natively compiled with the programmers toolkit X332prog.zip (or later) that is in the distribution. We are not interested in PMX, EXceed, or Linux programs that may be displayed on the servers without problems, but software which someone without a network (or in case of e.g. a network game, of course with a network as well) is able to run on his own OS/2 system. ...

... The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize the time of a computer client or server to another server or reference time source, such as a radio or satellite receiver or modem. ... Information on the NTP architecture, protocol and algorithms can be found in the Further Information and Bibliography page. The Building and Installing the Distribution page presents an overview of the procedures for compiling the distribution and installing it on a typical client or server. ...

Next: Jets Up: M.D. Smith Previous: High-Mass Star Formation Contents . By contrast, stars of low mass like our Sun are formed within molecular clumps. Michael Smith has been investigating the clumps and the individual cores they contain within one nearby cloud near the star Rho Ophiuchi. With Stanke (Hawaii), Khanzadyan (Heidelberg) and Gredel (Calar Alto), he has determined the masses of over 100 protostellar cores and compared this to the distribution of masses for stars. ...
