... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

The Extragalactic ALFA Zone of Avoidance team is mapping the distribution of low-Galactic-latitude galaxies and large scale structures through detection of galaxies' 21-cm emission with ALFA. This Zone of Avoidance (ZOA) survey finds new HI galaxies which lie hidden behind the Milky Way, and also provides redshifts and other HI parameters for partially-obscured galaxies known at other wavelengths. ... Discovery and Follow-up of a Nearby Galaxy from the Arecibo Zone of Avoidance Survey. ...

... 09.03.2001 . ... March 09 2001 09:00 (Moscow time) . The operations scheduled on OC "Mir" for March 8 are complete. The recent telemetry data confirmed that the complex remains pressurised, the thermal mode is normal, the onboard systems perform norminal. Enough electricity is generated to maintain the onboard systems operation and measure orbit parameters. The OC "Mir" onboard systems were checked out, orbit radio monitoring performed. Currently, the OC "Mir" is in free drift. ...
