2 unusual facts about VLA


Hubble Deep Field

Radio snapshot observations with the VLA ruled out one of these fields because it contained a bright radio source, and the final decision between the other two was made on the basis of the availability of guide stars near the field: Hubble observations normally require a pair of nearby stars on which the telescope's Fine Guidance Sensors can lock during an exposure, but given the importance of the HDF observations, the working group required a second set of back-up guide stars.

Vla

It comes in several flavours, such as chocolate, caramel, vanilla, banana, etc. and some are limited editions like orange (with an artificial orange flavour) sold only at the time of national events in the Netherlands like "koningsdag" or the world and European championships (as long as the Netherlands is still in the competition).

Addressin

The protein encoded by this gene is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule that interacts preferentially with the leukocyte beta7 integrin LPAM-1 (alpha4 / beta7), L-selectin, and VLA-4 (alpha4 / beta1) on myeloid cells to direct leukocytes into mucosal and inflamed tissues.

Associated Universities, Inc.

The Very Large Array (VLA), an array of 27 25-meter antennas, is located on the Plains of San Agustin about 50 miles west of Socorro, New Mexico.

GRS 1915+105

Observations with high resolution radio telescopes such as VLA, MERLIN and VLBI show a bi-polar outflow of charged particles, which emit synchrotron radiation at radio frequencies.
