The earlier findings on the radiative heating through the umbral walls in large sunspots are further investigated. No significant evidence for the umbra! heating has been found in small-sized sunspot umbrae.
Optical thickness of Rosette Nebula for Lyman Continuum is examined with W. Gebel's data. And the effective temperatures of the six exciting 0 stars of the nebula are obtained on the assumption that O stars emit black body radiation. The results are found to be generally in between Spitzers old and revised values.
A hyperbolic orbit is expanded in terms of F analogous to the eccentric anomaly of an elliptical orbit: τ p s i n q υ a n d τ p c o s q υ are expressed in terms of F. The true anomaly υ is expressed in terms of F, and F in terms of υ .
