... Electric Forces . 19.Motion in a Circle . ... In the absence of forces, motion in a straight line and constant velocity continues indefinitely. ... Each rotation the stone covers a distance . ... Since its velocity v equals the distance it moves in one second, one finds . ... while the actual motion brings it to some point D on the circle, whose center will be denoted by O. In the absence of forces, motion in a straight line and constant velocity continues indefinitely. ...

In order to measure the density of the Universe, it is necessary to sample a region that is larger than the scale on which the Universe becomes approximately homogeneous. ... When applied to clusters of galaxies we find a mass to luminosity ratio that implies a density of the Universe that is about 0.3 times the critical density. ... Thus the mass-to-muinosity ratio appears to vary with the size of the region measured, from 3 in the solar neighborhood to 30 in galaxies to 300 in clusters of galaxies. ...

where otherwise stated, constants are denoted by the following symbols and may be taken to have the values below Elementary charge Speed of light in vacuum Planck constant Permeability of vacuum Permittivity of vacuum Unified atomic mass constant Rest mass of proton Rest mass of electron Boltzmann constant Avogadro constant Gravitational ... Two space craft are travelling in opposite directions towards each other, one at speed u and the other at speed v with respect to the Earth. ...

... We have measured this "redshift" for the pink black holes, and allowed for it in our calculations. ... We see this effect in the emission from gas around these pink black holes, but it is far too small an effect to account for the pinkness. Thus the swirling motions of gas around or into the black holes cannot produc the colour. ... At first we thought that these things were normal blue black holes hidden behind clouds of interstellar dust, that absorbed the blue light and made them appear pink. ...

On 6 may 2001 the azimuth was parked at az=214.4 degrees and the dome was at 19 degrees za with motors off and the brakes on. At 7:40:49 the azimuth started moving do to the wind. ... The operators began moving the dome downhill at azimuth 258 degrees. The dome was at 18 degrees by the time the azimuth stopped moving. The azimuth rail had been greased the previous week. ... The red shows the dome position during this time (the top red line is 19 degrees and the bottom one is 18 degrees). ...

... Natalya V. Raguzova and Sergei B. Popov . ... We present a compilative catalogue of Be/X-ray binaries and candidates in the Galaxy and in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. This catalogue contains 160 sources and provides information on names and spectral types of optical components, distances, on spin characteristics of neutron stars, and on orbital and X-ray properties of binary systems. ...

The database contains references to the papers, data files and links to the Internet resources related to measurements and calculations of the optical constants in the wavelength interval from X-rays to radio domain. ... References to some useful books and reviews on the subject (e.g. the classical handbooks edited by E.D.Palik) and links to Internet collections of optical constants and personal WWW pages with related software were also placed in the database. You have arrived at our welcome page. ...

DIGITAL WDC EXCHANGE FORMAT . FOR OBSERVATORY 1.0 MINUTE VALUES 1. ... DATA-1 .. DATA-60 are 1-minute values of the given element for that hour. ... Typically, digital 1-minute values received by WDCs from organizations operating automatic magnetic observatory instruments are averages of more frequendy sampled values, e.g. 10-second point samples. ... If the method used to obtain 1-minute average values is important to a user, the WDC will assist in determining the exact procedure applied. ...

dfos = Data Flow Operations System, the common tool set for DFO . That initialization file sets up a standard set of global variables which must exist for dfos to run. ...
