... The metal abundance gradient in the disk of the Galaxy is found from stars with abundance determination from detailed analysis: d[Fe/H]/dR=(-0.05?0.01) kpc -1 . It is shown that the gradient can be explained by the fact that the disk is constituted of two metallicity groups of stars with an abundance jump between the groups. ...

... Comparative study of Tl-2201 single crystals with T c =30 and 110 K by means of X-ray structural analysis and NMR. Abstract: . The crystal structure of a tetragonal single crystal of Tl-2201 with T c =30 K has been determined by the X-ray diffraction technique ( a = 3.8717(3), c = 23.224(3) Angstrom, space group I4/mmm, Z = 2). The chemical composition is found to be Tl 1.90(1) Cu 0.10(1) Ba 2 CuO 6.18(4) . ... Structural parameters of Tl-2201 cuprates with various T c have been compared. ...

We present an extinction analysis of sight lines selected from all public FUSE observations of Galactic O and B stars. Over 90% of Milky Way extinction curves sampled from IR through UV wavelengths (UV coverage provided by IUE) conform to the CCM family of curves based on R(V), a single parameter linked to grain size (Cardelli, Clayton, Mathis 1989, ApJ, 345, 245; Valencic, Clayton, Gordon 2004, ApJ, 616, 912). ...

... Suspected G36.6-0.7 has the spectral index -0.8, it seems to be a background extragalactic source because the spectral index is too steep for SNR. ... During the last years the RATAN-600 has been used to carry out a new survey of the Galactic plane at 960 and 3900 MHz from l=342^o to l=19^o, |b| < 5.5^o, to search for new SNRs and to study the SNRs that have just been detected. Column (1) lists Galactic notation names of the new and well--known SNRs from Green's catalog; . ...

... Determination of Black Hole Masses via Correlations between their X-Ray Spectral and Timing Properties " . ... This fact strongly support our theoretically motivated idea that low frequency QPO for a particular BH state is inversely proportional to BH mass.Based on our scaling technique, we determine BH masses in H1743-322, GX 339-4, XTE J1650-500, XTE J1859-226, 4U 1543-47, 4U 1630-47, using independently known masses of XTE J1550-564, GRO J1655-40 and GRS 1915+105 as references. ...

... HD144941 is a B type hydrogen-deficient star. ... However, its H/He ratio puts it between the classifications of an extreme and an intermediate helium star, and its low C and N abundances make it unique amongst known H-deficient stars. ...

... The large body of near infrared observations presented in Testi et al. (1997; 1998) are analysed with the aim of characterizing the young stellar clusters surrounding Herbig Ae/Be stars. The results confirm the tendency of early Be stars to be surrounded by dense clusters of lower mass "companions", while Ae stars are never found to be associated with conspicuous groups. ... Only the most massive stars (10-20Msun) are found to be associated with dense (10^3 pc^-3) stellar clusters. ...

... 3.2 CTI correction In CCDs part of the charge released by an absorbed photon is lost during transfer to the readout node. This loss depends on several parameters, in particular on the position where the photon was detected, its energy, the temperature of the CCD, and the saturation of traps by charges preceding along the readout direction. ... The model accounts for the e ects of incomplete charge collection close to the detector surface. ...

... The effective temperature Te = 13700+ 500 and the surface gravity log g = 3.75 ± 0.25 were determined. ... It is shown that the ionization equilibrium for Fe I - Fe II and Mn I Hn II lines is maintained only for the second, more cool model. Out of 10 considered elements the largest overabundance was found for Mn (2.0 dex ), Ga (4.5 dex) and Hg (5.5 dex) . ... Hence it follows also that Y and Ce overabundance cannot exceed 2.5 dex. ...

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. ...
