... 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. ...

... Since the reddening found for the stars in Table 13 was small, no reddening correction was attempted. ... These diamonds indicate the positions of very low mass, 3 Myr old, objects from the work of Burrows et al. ... This optical V versus R - I scheme is a very powerful method of detecting very low mass (VLM) objects. ... Because of this, young brown dwarfs are intrinsically no more difficult to observe in the optical than low mass stars at the age of Orionis. ...

... Keck spectropolarimetry, giving spectral coverage from Ly- to beyond CIII], and HST imaging of a sample of powerful radio galaxies with has been obtained. ... This is a short progress report on a rather extensive programme we are carrying out to study the structure and composition of high redshift radio galaxies (HzRG) -- and, by implication, the host galaxies of radio quasars -- using observations in the optical, IR and mm bands. ... An example of the NICMOS and WFPC 2 imaging is shown in Figure 2 ...

... arXiv.org . astro-ph . ... We fit the near-infrared to radio spectral energy distributions of 30 luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies with pure starburst models or models that include both starburst and AGN components to determine important physical parameters for this population of objects. In particular we constrain the optical depth towards the luminosity source, the star formation rate, the star formation efficiency and the AGN fraction. ...

You might wonder how a black hole could be found if nothing including light can escape from it. ... HDE 226868 is a massive blue supergiant star; its companion is believed to be a black hole, surrounded by an accretion disc of gases from HDE 226868 which are spiraling into the black hole. ... Three other objects -- LMC X-3 in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy, and A0620-00 and V404 Cygni in our galaxy -- are also believed to have black holes as one of their components. ...

. Back to the main page of the project . Our project of studing the properties of the Galaxy chemical evolution had started in 2001. The main object to study the Galaxy Evolution is the Ensemble of the Plnetary Nebulae (PNe) of our Galaxy.

... 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 project assumes creation of an international space observatory - the interferometer "Earth - Space - Space" in order to perform of astronomical investigations in millimeter, submillimeter and infrared regions with extremely high sensitivity (to a few nanoJanskies units of flux density in continuum spectrum) and extremely high angular resolution (to a parts of microsecond of arc or, possibly, nanosecond). ... radio-interferometric channels of the system "Space - Space", region 0.2 - 3 mm; . ...

... Low resolution, slitless spectral images were obtained at the Loiano Observatory in the wavelength window 3300-6420 ?, in order to identify in extragalactic objects targets displaying the most prominent features that characterise the spectrum of bright hot stars, WR and Luminous Blue Variables (LBV), and of nebular regions as well. We present the results with the well studied galaxy M 101, where the previously known H II regions with WR star signatures are easily identified. ...
