Results from 6m telescope observations of globular clusters in dwarf galaxies Sharina M. We consider properties of globular clusters in dwarf galaxies observed with the multi-slit unit of the SCORPIO spectrograph at the SAO 6m telescope. ... Studying GCs in dwarf galaxies at the faintest end of the galaxy luminosity function provides valuable information for a better understanding of galaxy evolution and evolutionary connection between globular clusters and nuclei of galaxies. ...

Born in the UK, and following degrees at the Univerities of Bristol and Sussex, Martin Elvis got his PhD under Prof. Ken Pounds at the University of Leicester (UK) in 1978 for work with the Ariel V satellite. Ariel V was only the 2nd satellite to be devoted to X-ray astronomy. ... His PhD thesis demonstrated that powerful X-ray emission was a normal feature of Active Galactic Nuclei (or "AGN"). AGN X-ray emission has been a lively area of research ever since. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... 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. ...

A team of U.S. and German astrophysicists have made the first ever detection of X-rays coming from a comet. ... Following the initial detection, the team reported repeated X-ray emissions from the comet over the next 24 hours. ... One preliminary theory is that X-ray emission from the Sun was absorbed by a cloud of gaseous water molecules surrounding the nucleus of the comet, and then were re-emitted by the molecules in a process physicists call "fluorescence." ...

... X-ray sources in galaxies: active nuclei, primodal black holes or microquasars . The last findings in observations of point-like X-ray sources in galaxies are reported. ... A new class of objects has been discovered - the Ultraluminous X-ray (ULX) sources, which could be as black holes of intermediate mass (100-1000 suns), being captured by galaxies and spiralling in because of dynamical friction, or microquasars (SS433-like stars), being orientated "face-on". ...

... We report on the preliminary results of experiments using a Bayesian cluster method to cluster objects present in photographic images of the POSS-II. ... We believe that the application of such algorithms to large-scale astronomical sky surveys can aid in cataloging the detected objects, and may even have the potential to discover new categories of objects. ... We have thus started to explore new clustering analysis and unsupervised classification techniques for this task. ...
