... 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. ...

... We publish 16 Doppler imaging temperature maps for the years 1994-2002 of the active RS CVn star II Peg. ... Through Doppler imaging we want to study the spot evolution of the star and in particular compare this with previous results showing a cyclic spot behaviour and persistent active longitudes. ... The derived temperature maps are quite similar to the ones obtained earlier with a different methods, the main differences occurring in the spot latitudes and relative strength of the spot structures....
