... 1Haynes+ A catalogue at 5 GHz of 915 sources in the Galactic plane is presented. Sources with a peak beam brightness temperature of at least 0.2 K above the surrounding background are included, except in confused regions; a point source of 0.2 K corresconds to 0.26 Jy. ... It was assumed that Hydra A was a point source with a peak flux density of 13 Jy at 5 GHz; this is equivalent to a mean beam brightness temperature of 10.0 K for a beamwidth of 4.1x4.4'. ...

Background regions of this shape should be chosen when there is no extended emission in the FOV, because OA-concentric regions are in general larger than source-concentric ones (thus offer better statisitics), yet sample everywhere approximately the same background level, because the value of the vignetting function is approximately the same at a given radius from the OA. fovbkgannulus =`no...

Henize 206 is a region of star formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud of the approximate scale of the Orion belt and sword. Our Spitzer Space Telescope infrared images and Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO) optical images show that the region is experiencing very energetic star formation. ... A few percent of the total flux from this brightest region in Henize 206 emanates from infrared peaks of subparsec scale. ...

I-GALFA View of a Galactic Tangent Region . ... Image featured in NAIC Newsletter #46 . I-GALFA image of hydrogen gas in a tangent region outside the Sagittarius arm. ... Because we are viewing this gas in a direction closely aligned with (tangent to) its orbital motion, it appears to be moving away from us (we are orbiting the Galactic center with a similar speed, but our own motion in a different direction). ... The gas near 60 degrees longitude is being viewed tangent to its orbital motion. ...

Galaxies are diffuse objects which are imaged against a background of finite brightness and noise. Galaxies which have the maximum contrast with respect to this background are the ones that are first discovered. ... These galaxies have been missed to date but active surveys for them are underway. ... In this page we present several examples of these newly discovered Low Surface Brightness galaxies as well as examples of high surface brightness galaxies. ...

... 2007 September 24 . A Galactic Star Forming Region in Infrared . ... Explanation: How do stars form? To help study this complex issue, astronomers took a deep image in infrared light of an active part of our Milky Way Galaxy where star formation is rampant. ... The image , though, taken last year by the Spitzer Space Telescope in infrared light , shows vast glowing fields of gas and dust, indicating that much of this dust is heated by forming stars. ...

... Science Users Information > Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Planetary Nebulae and HII regions in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5128 . ... NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

This diagram illustrates two block boxes, one above the other, with rectangular clipping regions of different dimensions. ... Both axes depict increments of 5px. The clipping region of the first P box lies entirely within it, offset 5px from the top and left edges of the P box, and 10px from the right and bottom edges. ... The clipping region of the second P box resembles that of the first in style and position, except that the right edge is 5px to the right of the P box's right edge. ...
