Forty Years of X-Ray Binaries
In 2012 it was forty years ago that the discovery of the first X-ray binary Centaurus X-3 became known. That same year it was discovered that apart from the High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) there are also Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs), and that Cygnus X-1 is most probably a black hole. By 1975 also the new class of Be/X-ray binaries was discovered. After this it took 28 years before ESAs INTE...
متن کاملMean Motion Resonances in the Transneptunian RegionPart II: The 1 : 2, 3 : 4, and Weaker Resonances
The stability of orbits in the transneptunian region is numerically computed. It is found that, in analogy to the asteroid belt, there exist many chaotic layers associated with thin mean-motion resonances. These are either moderateand high-order resonances with Neptune or three-body resonances with Neptune and Uranus. The orbital eccentricity chaotically increases at the thin resonances, allowi...
متن کاملProduction of trans-Neptunian binaries through chaos-assisted capture
The recent discovery of binary objects in the Kuiper Belt opens an invaluable window into past and present conditions in the trans-Neptunian part of the Solar System. For example, knowledge of how these objects formed can be used to impose constraints on planetary formation theories. We have recently proposed a binary object formation model based on the notion of chaosassisted capture (CAC). In...
متن کاملAstronomy & Astrophysics Orbits of new Hipparcos binaries . I
We present first orbits for 6 new Hipparcos binaries. The orbits were determined from speckle interferometric measurements collected mainly at the 6 m BTA telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory in Zelenchuk. Three of the systems, HIP 11352, HIP 14075 and HIP 14230, have late Gor early K-type components, while HIP 14669 = GJ 125, HIP 106972 = GJ 4210 and HIP 111685 = GJ 4287 have M-t...
متن کاملA Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information
Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...
