... Future seminars . P a s t seminars . ... Radiation-driven winds from stars and Active Galactic Nucle" . ... It is now clearly understood that the problem of mass loss is crucially important both from the point of view of it’s influence on the evolution of stars and for the explanation of physical processes and observational data in active galactic nuclei (AGN). ... Absorption of the radiation by continuum opacity is responsible for such an evolutionary significant mass loss in cold massive stars. ...

... Here T is the index set, is the spatial process, is a realization of the process. ... A usual spatial point process is defined as (i.e., the index set is the points of ) or [the number of points within A ]; (i.e., the index set is the units of ), where both and T are random. ... The most important application of lattice models is statistical modeling of spatial images, which is widespread in astronomical image processing (restoration, segmentation, classification, reconstruction, etc.) ...

The complex interplay between regions of massive star formation and their surroundings is a determining component of galaxy evolution. Winds of massive stars and the resulting supernova explosions inject mechanical energy into the interstellar medium, redistributing gas within a galaxy. ... Return to list of thesis topics . ...

... The 7 and 15 um observations of selected fields in the Galactic Plane obtained with ISOCAM during the ISOGAL program offer an unique possibility to search for previously unknown YSOs, undetected by IRAS because of lower sensitivity or confusion problems. ... The main indications of the previous analysis are confirmed, but the criteria for selecting YSO candidates had to be revised to select only bright objects, in order to limit the contamination of the sample by Post-MS stars. ...
