Two molecular cloudlets have been detected and mapped in a partial survey of 12CO emission in a diffuse H I cloud toward Perseus. Previous observations of K I absorption and 21 cm emission had shown that the cloud is within 120 pc of the Sun, with a diameter of 14 pc, a total mass 1500 Msun, and temperatures as low as 30 K, making it a good

The direct identification of structure in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) is a major objective of observational cosmology. We present a detailed discussion of observations of such structure detected on a 5 deg scale in the CMB using beam-switching radiometers at 10, 15 and 33 GHz sited in Tenerife. This long-term experiment has reached

By adopting the thin flux tube model as representative of spatially unresolved magnetic elements in the photosphere of the Sun, we identify an adequate set of parameters for the model and derive the corresponding response functions (RFs) which inform about the variation of the emergent Stokes spectrum when such parameters are perturbed. We

In this report we review the prospects for Higgs physics at LEP2. The theoretical aspects and the phenomenology of Higgs particles are discussed within the Standard Model (SM) and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). The experimental search techniques are described and the discovery limits for Higgs bosons in the LEP2 energy range are
