The fields of the GSAOI detectors are shown as four green squares in each frame. ...

... Science . ... The goal is to bring together two communitities: the one working on star formation (mostly galactic) and the one working on the formation of young massive clusters (mostly extra-galactic).

... Архив семинара . ... Triggered Star Formation" . It is now well established that massive stars in star forming regions can trigger next generation of star formation. ... The young stellar objects (YSOs) in star forming regions have been identified using the near-infrared (NIR) and mid-infrared (MIR) observations. ... The age of YSOs, the morphology of the regions and the global distribution of YSOs indicate that the star formation can be triggered by either (RDI/ CC) of the processes. 40 мин. ...

The dotted line in diagram (a) shows the "cone of survival" according to the paper by Surdin and Arkhipova (1998) . ... The solid line is a regression stright line for the main sequence of clusters, and the dotted line parallel to it separates the sequence of clusters of anomalously small mass shown by open triangles. ...

... The survey uses HARP, a new submillimetre heterodyne array at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT), to map the J = 3 - 2 rotational transitions of CO and its isotopologues 13CO and C18O across 630 sq. arcmin of the Perseus molecular cloud, in four regions: NGC1333, IC348, L1448 and L1455. ... A new catalogue of 850 micron SCUBA clumps is identified using two automated algorithms, clfind and GaussClumps. ...

. The seminar is supported by the grant of Federal Programm "Integration" . annotation of talk . Yu.N.Efremov "GRBs and triggered star formation" . Evidences are presented that giant arcs of young stars and clusters are formed in the gas swepted-up by GRBs near their centres. Multiple arcs suggested that the source of GRBs progenitors is in the same region, this must be old massive cluster. The candidate cluster for the arcs in the LMC is suggested.

... LMC Project Outline . NGC 1818 Initial Results . ... The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is uniquely suitable for the study of massive star clusters at all stages of evolution. By combining HST observations of these clusters with N-body models we hope to understand the origin and evolution of rich star clusters in our own Galaxy, in the LMC, and beyond. ... We aim to combine our HST observations with N-body models to understand the formation and evolution of globular clusters. ...

In order to measure the density of the Universe, it is necessary to sample a region that is larger than the scale on which the Universe becomes approximately homogeneous. ... When applied to clusters of galaxies we find a mass to luminosity ratio that implies a density of the Universe that is about 0.3 times the critical density. ... Thus the mass-to-muinosity ratio appears to vary with the size of the region measured, from 3 in the solar neighborhood to 30 in galaxies to 300 in clusters of galaxies. ...
