DETERMINATION OF THE GALAXY CLUSTER ORIENTATION USING X-RAY IMAGES BY FOCAS METHOD
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue
Abstract
In our work we considered orientations of bright X-ray halos of the galaxy clusters (mainly Abell clusters). 78 appropriate clusters were selected using data from Xgal sample of extragalactic objects in XMM-Newton observation archive. Position angles and eccentricities of these halos were calculated applying FOCAS method. No privilegd orientations were found.

RESONANCES IN ASTEROID SYSTEMS
Today the following types of resonances in the rotation of celestial bodies in the solar system are known, namely orbital, spin-orbit and spin-spin resonances. This paper presents our computations of these types of reson...
THE ASYMMETRIC DRIFT AND THE ROTATION CURVE OF THE GALAXY
Asymmetric drift in the solar neighbourhood is studied by the means of the RAVE data. The asymmetric drift correction is applied to the SDSS data to measure the rotation curve of the Milky Way in the extended solar neigh...
