but how come it produces so many frequencies? like how is THAT particular spectrum produced? the textbooks have explanations for how emission and absorption spectrum r produced but they dont explain a continuous spectrum :mad:
thats a nice diagram :)
so the clusters that turn off near the top r the younger clusters and the ones that turn off near the bottom right r older clusters?
how bout active and adaptive optics? u know how they use a wavefront sensor between the primary mirror and the final lens or something? then they detect how much the light has been distorted due to atmospheric turbulence, then send info to the computer. does the computer change the shape of a...
wat is the deal with these rep thingys? i have no idea wat u's r talking about :p
another question: do we need to know anything bout flare stars and novas and stuff to do with variables? each textbook has a little info on them in terms of how they are irregular variables. but the syllabus...
