These colorful pictures have become infused into popular culture and can found everywhere, from advertising to television shows to memes. But they also invite questions: Is this what outer space really looks like? Are the colors real? And how do these images get from the stars to our screens? Coloring the Universe uses accessible language to describe how these giant telescopes work, what scientists learn with them, and how they are used to make color images. It talks about how otherwise un-seeable rays, such as radio waves, infrared light, X-rays, and gamma rays, are turned into recognizable colors. And it is filled with fantastic images taken in far-away pockets of the universe. Informative and beautiful, Coloring the Universe will give space fans of all levels an insider's look at how scientists bring deep space into brilliant focus. 606 $aSpace photography$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01127787 606 $aSpace photography 615 7$aSpace photography. 615 7$aSpace photography. 676 $a778.3/5 700 $aRector$b Travis A$g(Travis Arthur),$01961096 701 $aWatzke$b Megan$01961097 701 $aArcand$b Kimberly$f1975-$01961098 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911108860903321 996 $aColoring the Universe$94722739 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04005oam 22010214 450 001 9911149518303321 005 20251116183853.0 010 $a9786613820044 010 $a9781462365951 010 $a1462365957 010 $a9781452757209 010 $a1452757208 010 $a9781282391611 010 $a1282391615 010 $a9781451994322 010 $a145199432X 035 $a(CKB)3360000000443046 035 $a(EBL)3014367 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000940041 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11519259 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000940041 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10947097 035 $a(PQKB)11228713 035 $a(OCoLC)698585595 035 $a(IMF)WPIEE2006130 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3014367 035 $a(IMF)WPIEA2006130 035 $aWPIEA2006130 035 $a(EXLCZ)993360000000443046 100 $a20020129d2006 uf 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aAltruism and Workers?

Assessing the likely stability of remittance flows could be a valuable input to the analysis of their external vulnerabilities. This paper argues that "altruism," as a motive to send money home, would contribute to the stability of these flows. Using a simple framework that relates workers' remittances to agricultural GDP, which is used as an indicator of economic "hardship" in the home country, evidence suggests that altruism could have played an important role in the flow of remittances to Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Pakistan, and Tunisia in recent years. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2006/130 606 $aEmigrant remittances$zMiddle East 606 $aEmigrant remittances$zAsia, Central 606 $aCurrency$2imf 606 $aEmigrant remittances$2imf 606 $aExchange rates$2imf 606 $aExports and Imports$2imf 606 $aExports$2imf 606 $aExternal position$2imf 606 $aForeign Exchange$2imf 606 $aForeign exchange$2imf 606 $aInternational economics$2imf 606 $aInternational finance$2imf 606 $aInternational Investment$2imf 606 $aLong-term Capital Movements$2imf 606 $aOutward remittances$2imf 606 $aRemittances$2imf 606 $aService exports$2imf 606 $aTrade: General$2imf 607 $aJordan$2imf 615 0$aEmigrant remittances 615 0$aEmigrant remittances 615 7$aCurrency 615 7$aEmigrant remittances 615 7$aExchange rates 615 7$aExports and Imports 615 7$aExports 615 7$aExternal position 615 7$aForeign Exchange 615 7$aForeign exchange 615 7$aInternational economics 615 7$aInternational finance 615 7$aInternational Investment 615 7$aLong-term Capital Movements 615 7$aOutward remittances 615 7$aRemittances 615 7$aService exports 615 7$aTrade: General 700 $aBouhga-Hagbe$b Jacques 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911149518303321 997 $aUNINA
