The young stellar objects (YSOs) in star forming regions have been identified using the near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) observations. ... The age of YSOs, the morphology of the regions and the global distribution of YSOs indicate that the star formation can be triggered by either (RDI/ CC) of the processes. 40 мин. ...

Next: A candidate young galaxy? Up: Results and discussion Previous: Current star formation rate . The integrated H I line flux, the characteristic widths of 21 cm line profile W 50 and W 20 (for a Hanning smoothing of 10.6 km s -1 ), and the derived H I mass for HS 0822+3542 are presented in Table 1 . The small H I mass 2.4 of this galaxy is consistent with its low optical luminosity. ... A rough estimation can be made also on the dynamical mass of HS 0822+3542. ...

... We consider the astrophysical evolution of the Galaxy over large time scales, from early stages (an age of ~10 8 yrs) to the end of traditional stellar evolution (~10 11 yrs). ... In the model considered, the basic stages of Galactic evolution are as follows. ... Essentially all other basic parameters of the Galaxy vary little. ... The final "stellar epoch" in the life of the Galaxy is completed ~10 13 yrs after its formation, when the evolution of the least massive stars comes to an end. ...

Distant globular clusters with anomalously small masses. ... We found that 10 metal-poor globular clusters are greately distinguished for anomalously small masses on the "destruction rate-mass" plain. ... Note that 10 distant clusters of anomalously small mass selected by us proved to be younger and with an average metallicity <[Fe/H]> = -1.36 ? ... It looks as if only far from the centre of the Galaxy, conditions are created that lead to formation of globular clusters with anomalously small masses. ...

Before you continue reading, you should know that this was not always the case, i.e. the Moon once was rotating with respect to the Earth, so that on every night a terrestrial observer (if there was one, because this was long, long before mankind appeared on our planet, and even before any major animals had appeared) saw another face of the Moon. ...
