We present Spitzer 3.6-160 О?m images, Spitzer mid-infrared spectra, and JCMT SCUBA 850 О?m images of the Sombrero Galaxy (NGC 4594), an Sa galaxy with a 109 Msolar low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN). The brightest infrared sources in the galaxy are the nucleus and the dust ring. ...

The process of determining the number and characteristics of sources in astronomical images is so fundamental to a large range of astronomical problems that it is perhaps surprising that no standard procedure has ever been defined that has well understood properties with a high degree of statistical rigour on completeness and reliability. ... In this analysis we present results from testing such algorithms as implemented in the SExtractor, Selavy (Duchamp), and sfind tools on simulated data. ...

Central Astronomical Observatory at Pulkovo of Russian Academy of Sciences PUL Analysis Center Pulkovo IVS Analysis Center (PUL) 2009 Annual Rep ort Zinovy Malkin, Natalia Miller, Elena Popova Abstract This report briefly presents the PUL IVS Analysis Center activities during 2009 and plans for the coming year. The main topics of the investigations of PUL staff in that period were ICRF related studies, computation and analysis of EOP series, and VLBI2010 related issues. ...

Should you need to know the radio environment in/around your observing band, you can remotely access yesterday's Hill-top monitoring plots and average spectra taken from the Gregorian Dome during the commissioning phase ( Present Environment ). If you are on-site, you may use various users' facilities available from ARTS-RFI to go through the accumulated hill-top database since mid-1995. ... The group can be reached at "rfi-grp@naic.edu" .

... 1Wills Accurate measurements of relative flux density have been made between frequencies of 468 and 5009 MHz for 300 radio sources selected from Parkes catalogue. ... Excluding the incertainties in scaling these flux densities to an absolute system, rms errors vary from 0.24 Jy and 2.4 % at 635 MHz to 1.8 % at 2700 MHz; uncertainties in "absolute" scaling are thought to be about 45 %. ... Some sources whose spectra may be useful for flux density calibration are noted. ...

The srcinten task provides PROS users with a tool to compute count rates for point sources in the ROSAT High Resolution Imager (HRI). ... Corrected upper limits are cited at locations where the count rate falls below the source detection threshold. ... Srcinten is a new PROS task that computes and applies the above correction factors to the net counts in a user-specified aperture. ...

... We present near infrared broad band (J,H and K) and narrow band (H2 S(1)1-0 and Brackett gamma) images, and high resolution molecular observations (C{34}S(2-1), (3-2), (5-4) and {13}CO(2-1)) around the highly variable H2O maser located between the S235 A and B optical nebulosities. These observations are part of an on-going search for the sources of excitation of H2O masers in regions of star formation or, alternatively, for the earlieast evolutionary phases of massive stars. ...
