We present ultraviolet, optical, near-infrared, Spitzer mid-infrared, and radio images of 14 radio-selected objects in M33. ... We have detected the majority of cluster candidates in M33 at all wavelengths. ... These results suggest that 11 of the 14 radio-selected objects are optically visible young star clusters with a surrounding H II region, that 2 are background objects, possibly active galactic nuclei (AGNs), and that 1 is a Wolf-Rayet star with a surrounding H II region. ...

... astro-ph/0003002 We cross-identified the ROSAT Bright Source Catalog (RBSC) and the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) to construct the RBSC-NVSS sample of the brightest X-ray sources (~0.1 counts s^{-1} ~= 10^{-12} ergs cm^-2s^-1 in the 0.1--2.4 keV band) that are also radio sources (S ~= 2.5 mJy at 1.4 GHz) in the 7.8 sr of extragalactic sky with |b| > 15deg and DEC > -40deg. ... We used the more accurate radio positions to make reliable X-ray/radio/optical identifications down to the POSS plate limits. ...

... Structure of Data . ... Catalog . ... In SAI OCL Catalog, we introduce our work on investigation of the Milky Way system of open star clusters. The main goal of our study is a search for new clusters using huge surveys. 168 new clusters have been already discovered by us using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS point source catalog. ... For 141 new clusters, we found their physical parameters using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS catalog and, for a number of clusters, our UBVRI CCD observational magnitudes. ...

Unlike at lower redshift, where there is a 40% detection rate, surveys for 21-cm absorption arising within the hosts of z 1 radio galaxies and quasars have been remarkably unsuccessful. ... In order to find this "missing" gas at high redshift, we have therefore undertaken a survey of z 2 radio sources, selected by optical faintness. ... The possibility that the other five could be located at lower photon rates cannot be ruled out, although zero detections out of five is not statistically significant. ...

... During the analysis of the surveys carried out on RATAN-600, it was found that almost one fifth of the detected sources shows significant radio flux variations. ... We used the data from "Cold" radio surveys carried out with RATAN-600 in 1980-1994 to search for radio sources with significant flux variability. ...

... The stars examined here were primarily culled from two lists of X--ray sources in Orion. ... The second region is two degrees in extent east--west and ten degrees north--south with Orionis being near the northern edge. ... In the end, two main regions were chosen for monitoring: stars near Orionis and stars northwest of the belt of Orion. ... The PSPC identified 22 sources within 15 of Orionis in addition to the sources listed in Table 1 , giving a total of 85 X--ray sources in the Orionis region. ...

... Galaxy Evolution home . ... The origin and evolution of radio sources . Radio sources and their environments . ... We are investigating how this interaction effects galaxy evolution in general as well as the feedback effect of the radio source on its host galaxy and AGN. ... One direct observational manifestation of this interaction is the existence of extended regions of emission-line gas which show a clear spatial relationship to the radio source itself. ...

... The overall globular cluster population is divided by gap in the metallicity function at [Fe/H]=-1.0 into two discrete groups with well-defined maxima at [Fe/H]=-1.60?0.03 dex, and -0.60?0.04 dex. ... Clusters with extremely blue horizontal branches occupy a spherical volume of radius ~ 9 kpc, have high rotational velocities ( V rot =77?33 km/s), have substantial and equal negative radial and vertical metallicity gradients, and are, on average, the oldest group (the old-halo subsystem). ...
