... A radio galaxy is a galaxy that emits an unusually big amount of energy at radio wavelengths. ... Inside of each galaxy with an active nucleus (radio galaxies are among them) there must be a system of a "central machine" responsible for the colossal amount of the emitted energy from radio to gamma ranges. ... Sometimes a radio source in an active galaxy may flare again if the needed conditions appear (a new portion of matter would fall into the furnace of the "central machine"). ...

... Galaxies, AGN, Cosmology . ... Ionized outflows in z~2.4 quasar host galaxies . ... The work analyses a sample of bright AGN at redshift 2.4, a cosmic epoch for massive galaxies and BH growth, when the most powerful, fast outflows are expected . ... These results, presented in the article " Ionized outflows in z~2.4 quasar host galaxies " to be published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, open the door to further analysis connecting molecular and ionized outflows to the AGN and host galaxy properties. ...

... 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. ...

ChASeM33 . The Chandra ACIS Survey of M33 - . ... The major sources of feedback into the ISM are massive OB stars, which inject energy via Lyman continuum photons, stellar winds and, finally, supernova explosions. ... SB interiors are generally more efficient than individual SNRs in converting thermal into kinetic energy of expansion, because radiative losses are smaller in SBs than for the same number of isolated explosions. ... 1) Is the diffuse hot ISM shaped predominantly by SNRs or by SBs? ...

... The mysterious music is played by the stars ... some very special ones, called "pulsars". Visit the Jodrell Bank Centre for Astrophysics to listen to more pulsars . ... The first pulsar was discovered by a woman from Northern Ireland, Dame Jocelyn Bell-Burnell (who was in Belfast a short while ago to give a beautiful talk about astronomy and poetry ) during her PhD, in 1967. ...

... Up: Science Data Pipelines . ... We designed and developed a package which simulates extragalactic point source data within a given field of view and SIRTF band. ... The simulator is modular and extensible to enable multi-wavelength simulations, has been optimized by utilizing parallel processing capabilities, and will be used to test pipeline software. ... The extragalactic simulator is capable of generating large numbers of galaxies within a given patch of sky for SIRTF pipeline testing. ...

... We found that 10 metal-poor globular clusters are greately distinguished for anomalously small masses on the "destruction rate-mass" plain. As it turned out, these poor clusters, situated 15 kpc farther from the Galactic centre, are somewhat younger than the bulk of the metal-poor globulars, and have anomalously red horizontal branches. ... At the same time, deficiency of distant massive clusters is noticeable with increasing distance from the galactic centre. ...
