Next: The APM selected sample Up: Second priority candidates Previous: Second priority candidates . From the random selected subsample of second priority candidates we observed twenty six objects during the 6-m telescope runs (mainly those with R.A.< 11 h ) along with the observations of first priority targets. Altogether we found 12 emission-line objects: one appeared to be a QSO with z =3.15, and the rest are various types of ELGs. ... One object is an absorption-line galaxy. ...

... About ATNF overview . ... Both are consistent with earlier estimates, computed for the population of optically selected galaxies. This consistency occurs because, although the distribution of optical central surface brightnesses among galaxies is flat, we fail to find a population of galaxies with central surface brightnesses fainter than 24б  B - , even though there is no observational selection against them. Keywords: Galaxies: Luminosity Function, Mass Function; Surveys . ...

... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... About the Sky Map Online, professional edition . The professional version of the Sky Map Online was reflected as the tool for amateure astronomers and for professional astronomers It provides the creation of maps with the magnitude limit for stars up to 21-st magnitude (limit of the First POSS) and field size from several arcmins to 80 by 60 degrees, what makes possible to use it for the following goals: . ... Guiding stars selection. ... Such objects are not recommended to use as guiding stars. ...

... In one situation, we can use light from quasars to probe the material between us and them because that light may pass through one or more galaxies or gas clouds on its way to us. The gas inside the galaxies or the intergalactic clouds acts then as a filter, absorbing selected wavelengths from the quasar light. ... Light from a quasar must pass through clouds of gas and even faint galaxies -- each leaving its imprint on the light -- before we receive it here on Earth. ... Gravitational lensing . ...
