Star formation is often best manifested by bright H II regions.These are regions of hydrogen which have been ionized by ultraviolet photons which are emitted from massive stars (typically stars more than 20 times the mass of the Sun). ... A narrowband filter image centered on this wavelength will then readily reveal these H II regions and hence the current sites of star formation in a galaxy, The luminous blobs that can be seen here are all H II regions . ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

The classic solution for homogeneous sphere was suggested in 1899 by A.E.N. Love [ 330 ], in 1908 by G. Mie [ 342 ] and in 1909 by P. Debye [ 199 ]. ... Traditionally the theory of light scattering by a sphere is called the Mie theory. ... The exact solutions of the Mie problem for an optically active sphere (i.e. a sphere of optically active material [ 7 ]) and for a sphere with an optically active mantle were first obtained in 1974-5 by S. Bohren [ 158 , 159 ]. ...

... Sunspots are manifestations of magnetically disturbed conditions at the Sun 's visible surface. ... Sunspot appear often in groups, and the sunspot number R is defined as R = k ( f + 10 g ), where f is the total number of spots visible to the observer, g is the number of disturbed regions (single spots or groups of spots), and k is a constant for the observatory related to the sensitivity of the observing equipment. Sunspots display a clear 11-year cycle in their number and latitude. ...
