Journal ArticleDOI
Existence and Nature of Dark Matter in the Universe
TL;DR: This chapter discusses the detection of nonluminous matter from its gravitational effects from studies of astrometric and single-line spectroscopic binaries and the results were taken much more seriously by contemporary and succeeding astronomers than the results of Oort and Zwicky.
Journal ArticleDOI
The origin and abundances of the chemical elements
TL;DR: A NATO Advanced Studies Institute on the Origins and Abundances of the Chemical Elements was held at the Institute of Astronomy, Cambridge, England from 23 July to 9 August 1974.
Journal ArticleDOI
Motions and structure of the filamentary envelope of the Crab Nebula
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured 132 line-emitting filaments in the Crab Nebula on direct plates taken with the 100 and 200-inch telescopes and showed that the motions are largely radial, each filament having a velocity approximately proportional to its distance from the expansion center.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of the single, cool, magnetic white dwarf GD 356 (GJ 1205) and set the most restrictive upper limit to the x-ray luminosity from any cool white dwarf -Lx less than 6.0 x 10(exp 25) erg s(sup -1), at 99.7% confidence, for a 1- keV thermal-bremsstrahlung spectrum.
