Logging ...

Today was a logging day!

Updated the log notebook of the work on the first cluster of our sample ... yes, I started testing things and taking notes on paper sheets and now had to gather everything and pass it to the real log ... now it's done.

Also some reading at home. A new letter from Salvador-Sole about scaling relations on elliptical galaxies by formation though violent relaxation. Interesting idea, they proposed that the DM haloes scalling parameters are determined basically by their accretion history (see here) and now they extend the idea to elliptical galaxies. The main difference is that elliptical galaxies are not accreting constantly as DM haloes, but the matter infall after a major merger can be treated as this "accretion phase" of the DM haloes. (now I'll restart paper commenting here ...)

Yep, so some lines about it. I've stopped commenting paper, or more detailed comments on work here due to personal problems in 2006. Also missed some reading of Hogg's science blog (very interersting reading) and then I wanted to get the whole "story" again and had a lot of reading to catch up. I'm back to that! Now, more comments on papers and work and I'll be up to date with some blog reading. So David, don't be surprised if you get some new comments on old posts hehehehehehe

New week! New things!!
