... Stellar spectra provide astronomers with information that enables temperature, composition, radial motion, magnetic properties, rotation, and color to be determined. An indication (but not direct measurement) of stellar radius, mass, and absolute magnitude can also be obtained from spectral informat ...

Consequences of Neutrino Emission from a Phase
... In our study we did not consider the detail formation process from normal matter to quark matter. We simply assume that a neutron star suddenly undergoes a phase-transition. We use a 3D Newtonian hydrodynamic code to study the consequences of phase-transitioninduced collapse. This code solves a set ...

... The positions of emission lines and absorption lines are identically placed in the spectrum for the same gas. The wavelength is the same, the line appears bright in emission and dark in absorption. Atomic structure models are used to account for the composition link. The origin of spectral lines wer ...

... Whereas Alpha Centauri is 4.3 light years distant, the Sun is only 8 light minutes away from us. Consequently, astronomers know far more about the properties of the Sun than about any of the other distant points of light in the universe. A good fraction of all our astronomical knowledge is based on ...

Doomsday: When will it happen and what will cause it
... The thing we are wondering about in life, books, and sci-fi movies: Doomsday: When will it happen and what will cause it to happen? Some Mayans, Koreans, and Europeans believed that the world will end in the year 2012. However, it may seem impossible, it might also be true. That’s why I interviewed ...
