... PPTA timeline . ... List of projects . ... RedGW . ... One of the main goals of pulsar timing array projects is to limit the existence of a background of gravitational waves (GWs). Jenet et al. (2006) developed a method to determine such a limit if (and only if) the pulsar timing residuals were statistically white. In the paper we used data from six pulsars from the PPTA project to obtain a limit. The remaining pulsars were rejected because their timing residuals were not white. ...

... Our resulting sample of ELGs presented in Tables 2 and 3 is not artificially biased to any specific type of galaxies. ... Since we are looking for selection of a sample of Case BCGs, it is interesting to examine how the detected BCGs are connected with Case emission-line codes. ... Altogether BCGs comprise about 60 % of all Case ELGs which display emission lines in our spectra, or about 44 % of all Case galaxies with some emission-line code. ... Among those with the code ``w'' about 40 % are BCGs. ...

... One of the most widely used tools of Fourier analysis is the Parseval theorem. It enables the experimentalist to view how the `energy' in the signal is distributed among frequencies. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithms have made power spectra one of the obvious diagnostics tools during data acquisition, and energy maps are a versatile alternative. ... The result is an energy map (Fig. 9), showing the distribution of energy corresponding to the wavelet map (Fig. ...

... The distribution of galactic RCB stars is controversial. Several authors have argued that they belong to a thick galactic disk, and are thus old Population I stars. However, they may alternatively belong to the even older galactic bulge (Population II). ... In either case, the populations are sufficiently old that RCB stars must have relatively low masses ( ). ... These are the only RCB stars for which a distance is known and hence for which an absolute magnitude can be deduced. ...

To construct two-dimension distribution of minor planets user should specify elements/ parameters/ function that will be plotted as abscissas and ordinates. In three-dimension case one should add to them the element plotted on Z axis. ... Though you may choose elements plotted along different axes at will, often there is good reason to plot such elements as a, n, or n" along X axis (two-dimension distributions) and to plot them along Y axis in three-dimension case. ...
