A Canadian and American team of Astronomers have used the 305-m wide Arecibo radio dish, the world's largest and most sensitive radio telescope, to uncover a dozen new super-fast-spinning pulsars. The team directed their search for these rare and exotic stars by pointing the Arecibo radio telescope towards massive star clusters, called Globular Clusters, orbiting our Milky Way galaxy. ... One of the most exotic residents in the Globular cluster system are the millisecond pulsars. ...

... Our Milky Way galaxy is host to a number of companions. These companions are gravitationally bound to the Milky Way and are stellar systems in their own right. They include a population of about 150 globular clusters (GCs) and some 30 dwarf satellite galaxies (DSGs). ... These DSGs are more extended and diffuse compared to GCs. In fact the larger satellites of the Milky Way (and other galaxies, for that matter) host their own small systems of GCs. ...

We present large field infrared images of a sample of 45 Herbig Ae/Be stars. Stellar parameters, such as age and mass, have been derived for all of them in a consistent way. The images have been used to identify stellar groups or clusters associated with the Herbig Ae/Be star. ... Mantained by: Leonardo Testi . ...

... Calculations of at least two runs with different values of a parameter are required in order to discover to what extent the results depend on the , if at all. ... In order to study how the final statistical distributions depend on the initial functions, the method of Green functions is used. ... Then we can restore any distribution on this parameter (with a certain accuracy) by summing the results for each interval with the appropriate weight. ...

... THE SIMPLEST MODEL. ... 13, Moscow 119992, Russia E-mail: san@sai.msu.ru Abstract: The analysis of the simplest model shows that an asteroid ­ rubble pile evolves, depending on the parameter V2d (where V is the average velocity of fragments and d is the average distance between fragments), either as a conglomerate of "independent mutually gravitating clusters" (when V2d < fm, where f is the gravitational constant and m is the average mass of a fragment) or as a "receding cluster" (when V2d > fm). ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... The next step up are true clusters, called open clusters . Open clusters (sometimes misleadingly called "galactic clusters") are groups of stars ranging in size from a few dozen stars up to tens of thousands. ... The youngest is about 1 or 2 million years old, while the oldest is about 6 or 7 billion years, making it just older than our own solar system. ... So by looking at the stars in the cluster we can tell pretty well how old they are. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...
