Next: Star Formation Rate and Up: No Title Previous: Calculation of Evolutionary Tracks . To start calculations, we choose the distributions of the initial binary parameters: the mass of the primary ZAMS component, , binary mass ratio, , orbital separation a . ... whereas the mass ratio distribution is not. ... The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

... casa::Normal . ... Normal ( RNG *gen, Double mean=0.0, Double variance=1.0) . Construct a random number generator for a normal distribution. virtual . ... Returns a value from the normal distribution. virtual Double . ... These function allow you to manipulate the parameters (mean & variance) described above through the base class. virtual Vector < Double > . ... The second and third arguments define the parameters for this distribution as described in the synopsis. virtual casa::Normal::~Normal . ...

Colour transformations are supplied only for the three visual bandpass filter (U, B, V). ... compute the colour term (mag1-mag2) in the instrumental system . select the applicable colour transformation . ... the correct branch of the colour transformation is selected: . match the value of the optional parameter branch (if not set the default value 0 is used) to the value in the column BRANCH of the CCF COLOURMAG extension. the correct interval of the colour transformation is selected: . ...

... Fitting the observed dependence includes calculations of the polarization cross-sections averaged over particles orientation and size distribution, their normalization and the comparison of obtained dependencies with Serkowski's curve representing observational data for a chosen star. ... Variations of the polarization factors with wavelength are shown in Fig. 16 for homogeneous spheroidal particles with PF orientation. ... The distinction between prolate and oblate spheroids is also clearly seen. ...

... The Radon transform (also known as the Hough transform) is formulated as a family of line integrals through a two-dimensional function. ... The Radon transform provides us with a simple means of computing the FF plane of the autochirplet transform, by using the Wigner distribution, and arriving at a transform space that tells us basically the same information as the chirplet FF-plane, except that we benefit from the greater resolution of the Wigner distribution. ...

The models provided are: . abs - absorption of x-rays by neutral gas with solar abundances. parameter 1 = . ... parameter 2 = . ... normalization - logarithmic value of the flux density at 1 keV in units of keV cm -2 s -1 keV -1 . ... normalization - logarithmic value of the normalization of the gaussian in units of keV cm -2 s -1 . ... absorption ( params )* model ( params ) . ... A single value for the normalization (i.e., fixed normalization) will force the program to use that value. ...
