This huge elliptical galaxy NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is the closest such galaxy to Earth, at a distance of about 12 million light-years. Observations with ESO s Very Large Telescope in Chile have discovered a new class of dark globular star clusters around this galaxy. ... Normal globulars are marked in blue and globulars showing similar properties to dwarf galaxies are in green. The dark globulars appear very similar to other globulars around this galaxy but contain much more mass. ...

... Physical Properties of Crystals . ... The course is an introduction into crystal physics and consists of two introductory parts devoted to the basics of crystallography and tensor analysis and six main chapters in which the physical phenomena in anisotropic medium are described by the example of the elastic, electrical and magnetic crystal properties. The effect of symmetry is also discussed. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal properties. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal optical properties. ...

... Spectra obtained with the 6-m telescope of SAO RAS are used along with archival data from Spitzer and several ground-based telescopes to infer a strength of PAH emission, age, properties of the UV radiation field, and metallicity of studied HII complexes. Physical properties (age, radiation field parameters, metallicity) are related to the F 8 /F 24 ratio used as a proxy for the PAH abundance in order to reveal factors that may influence the PAH evolution in HII complexes. ...
