This is a copy of a Press Release from E.S.O. The most recent ESO observations of bright Comet Hyakutake have shown rapid changes in the innermost coma, within a few hundred kilometres from the cometary nucleus. This result has only become possible because of the unusual combination of a bright comet being near the Earth, together with the excellent imaging quality of the ESO 3.5-metre New Technology Telescope (NTT). ... Go to the ESO Homepage for Comet Hyakutake . ESO/La Silla | ...

... The previous example, Chapter 12, "Expanding Colored Squares Example," illustrates how to expand and contract the clipping region of a layer without changing the wrapping width of the layer.

Next: Format of the Up: Auxiliary Data Previous: Description of the . For convenience in table handling only values for single lines or doublets (most of the observed cases) can be entered. If higher multiplicities are actually needed small changes have to be made in the table and program format. Possibility for 50 different atomic transitions. N.B. : in case of doublets, columns 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 refer to the reddest component, and columns 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 to the bluest. ...

... Kernel . ... This article is part of the LWN Porting Drivers to 2.6 series . The kernel's handling of device interrupts has been massively reworked in the 2.6 series. ... If no interrupt handler for a given IRQ has been registered, the kernel knows that any interrupt on that number is spurious. ... If your interrupt handler recognizes and handles a given interrupt, it should return IRQ_HANDLED . ... can also be used; handled should be nonzero if the handler could deal with the interrupt. ...

This is a primer on how to use the new AO observing system called CIMA, Control Interface Module for Arecibo. ... Spectral line observers will choose the correlator configuration to setup the correlator. ... The CIMA gui has the observing executive which receives the start and apply commands and makes them happen. ... Remember as to the control of the IF/LO system, the telescope pointing system and the interim correlator, this GUI is a house of cards on top of the old vxworks command line interface. ...

... In less then one day "Mir" station will finish its flight. ... Besides, the operability of motion control systems will be tested to ensure further dynamic operation at the final stage of "Mir" complex. ... The final third burn is given in daily orbit 2 using the "ProgressM1-5" 8 control engines and its main engine with the trust of 300 rg/s. Thus, to peform deorbit maneuver the OC"MIr" real-time tested manuevers involving control engines and their combination with the main engine are used. ...
