During a reconnection event on 7 August 2004, Cluster and Double Star (TC-1) were near the neutral sheet and simultaneously detected the signatures of the reconnection pulses. AT 22:59 UT tailward flow followed by earthward flow was detected by Cluster at about 15 RE, while earthward plasma flow followed by tailward flow was observed by…

The catalogue of astrometric (positions, proper motions) and photometric (B, V, R, r', J) data of stars in 192 fields with the ICRF objects has been compiled at the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine and the Astronomical Observatory of the Kyiv National University. All fields are located in declination zon…

ASCA and XMM-Newton observations of A2029
DOI: 10.1016/j.asr.2005.04.047 Bibcode: 2005AdSpR..36..752M

Hudaverdi, M.; Furuzawa, A.; Yamashita, K. +4 more

The X-ray data of A2029 obtained with XMM-Newton show no evidence of an embedded AGN in the central region of this cluster, which was suggested from the analysis of restored ASCA image data, although some hot spots are seen within or around the central cD galaxy. The absence of AGN at the cluster center is consistent with the result of Chandra obs…

Why we need wide-field imaging from space to understand galaxy formation [review article]
DOI: 10.1016/j.newar.2005.08.006 Bibcode: 2005NewAR..49..366S

Somerville, R. S.

Space-based imaging with the Hubble Space Telescope has demonstrated the many advantages of viewing galaxies from outside the Earth's atmosphere. Hubble has shown us the amazing complexity of galaxies in the nearby and high redshift universe in exquisite detail. However, because of the limited areas surveyed, the sample sizes remain relatively sma…

A first XMM-Newton look at the most X-ray-luminous galaxy cluster RX J1347.5 1145
DOI: 10.1016/j.asr.2004.12.002 Bibcode: 2005AdSpR..36..613G

Gitti, Myriam; Schindler, Sabine

We present the first results from an XMM-Newton observation of RX J1347.5 1145 (Z = 0.451), the most luminous X-ray cluster of galaxies currently known, with a luminosity LX = 6.0 ± 0.1 × 1045 erg s-1 in the (2 10) keV energy band. The cluster has an overall temperature of kT = 10.0 ± 0.3 keV and is not isothermal:…

Spacecraft exploration of asteroids
DOI: 10.1007/s11208-005-0006-5 Bibcode: 2005SoSyR..39...73S

Shevchenko, V. G.; Mohamed, R. A.

The past, current, and planned space missions for asteroid exploration are reviewed. The main results based on observations performed with satellites in near-Earth orbits (OAO-2, IUE, FIRSSE, IRAS, HST, Hipparcos, ISO, MSX) and space probes sent to particular objects (Galileo, NEAR, DS1, Stardust) are reported. Future space missions (MUSES-C, Rose…

Keck infrared observations of Saturn's main rings bracketing Earth's August 1995 ring plane crossing
DOI: 10.1016/j.icarus.2004.10.008 Bibcode: 2005Icar..174..241V

de Pater, Imke; Showalter, Mark R.; Lissauer, Jack J. +1 more

We present results of near-infrared (2.26 µm) observations of Saturn's main rings taken with the W.M. Keck telescope during August 8-11, 1995, surrounding the time that Earth crossed Saturn's ring plane. These observations provide a unique opportunity to study the evolution of the ring brightness in detail, and by combining our data with Hub…

Ward-Thompson, Derek; Nisini, Brunella; van Dishoeck, Ewine F. +1 more

We summarize the observations of the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) concerning the earliest stages of the stellar formation. The observations of samples of sources in different evolutionary stages are reviewed, addressing in particular how the physical and chemical properties of the protostellar environments change from the pre-stellar cores to …

Comparison of the Sacramento Peak Fe XIV Index with a Model Index Computed from Differential Emission Measure Maps
DOI: 10.1086/444556 Bibcode: 2005ApJ...633..518C

Newmark, J. S.; Cook, J. W.; Altrock, R. C.

We compare the Sacramento Peak Fe XIV 5303 Å green line index with a model index time series for the period of operations of the EUV Imaging Telescope (EIT) on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO), covering the years 1996-2002, from cycle minimum past the peak of the current activity cycle 23. We compute a differential emission meas…
