X-ray astronomy primarily involves the study of plasmas with thermal temperatures in the range of 1E6 to 1E8 K. Such plasmas radiate the bulk of their energy in the X-ray regime, from ca. 0.1 to 10 keV. ... Apart from X-ray continuum emission, produced through processes such as e.g. thermal bremsstrahlung, a significant fraction of the total emissivity of hot thermal plasmas can arise from line emission. ... XMM's science objectives are described here in two parts: . General science objectives . ...

Clusters of galaxies are the largest gravitationally bounded structures in the Universe dominated by dark matter. We review the observational appearance and physical models of plasma structures in clusters of galaxies. ... The knowledge of the complex dynamical and feedback processes is necessary to understand the energy and matter balance as well as to constrain the role of the non-thermal components of clusters. ...

Abridged] We present the first direct comparison of the distribution of the gas, as traced by the [OI] 6300 AA emission, and the dust, as traced by the 10 micron emission, in the protoplanetary disk around three intermediate-mass stars: HD 101412, HD 135344 B and HD 179218. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... We've come a long way from cluster to cluster! ... Some of these objects turned out to be star clusters of various types, and other were true nebulae, or clouds of glowing gas. ... Therefore, by their reasoning, these spiral nebulae must be part of our own Milky Way. ... An established and respected astronomer, Heber Curtis, defended the idea that the nebulae were ``island universes'', clusters of stars and gas in their own right like the Milky Way. ...

Short-Period Comets: Origin and Terrestrial Impact Hazard . ... The model is consistent with the basic observed distributions of near-parabolic comets, short-period comets, Centaurs and high-eccentricity trans-Neptunian objects.This model requires that initial objects in the early Solar System are concentrated to the outer planetary region, and the physical lifetime of comets in the inner planetary region at the present epoch is an increasing function of initial perihelion distances. ...

... part 2 | ... Part 1 . The new concept of formation and development of the Solar system. ... Thus, the initial pulse of the rotation of a protosolar cloud of the solar system was determined as a result of the diversion of a part of the moment of the rotational pulse of the Galaxy. ... Besides this new approach to the pre-solar system as a system of the destroyed vortex structure, we can understand now a number of other peculiarities of the Solar system's structure. ...

Andromeda Nebula. In the XVIII century the great English astronomer William Gershel included this galaxy into the observed stars congestions. ... What is this nebula interested for? It is a great spiral galaxy 1,5 times more than our galaxy - The Milky Way. The Milky Way and Andromeda Nebula are the greatest objects of the local group of galaxies. ... Andromeda Nebula is not the nearest galaxy to ours but its structure looks like the structure of our Galaxy. ...

Microsymposium 34, MS047, 2001 SOME PROBLEMS OF THE EVOLUTION OF ASTEROIDS ­ RUBBLE PILE. ... Evidently, we can distinguish two processes: distant interactions, where there is no direct contact between separate fragments, and close contact interactions, where the fragments collide with one another. ... Such a rubble pile with a dust atmosphere differs from a cometary nucleus only in the absence of a volatile gas component, which is usually considered the cause of the appearance of cometary dust. ...
