... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... 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"). ...

An image of the grand design of spiral galaxy M100 obtained with NASA's Hubble Space Telescope resolves individual stars within the majestic spiral arms. ... Hubble has the ability to resolve individual stars in other galaxies and measure accurately the light from very faint stars. This makes space telescope invaluable for identifying a rare class of pulsating stars, called Cepheid Variable stars embedded within M100's spiral arms. ... 617) 495-7062 . Fax: (617) 495-7356 . ...

... The parameter pgdev allows the user to specify a pgplot device, but, in contrast to the pgplot standard, the file name should not be included, but instead supplied via the parameter plotfile . ... To write a colour postscript file called op.ps: pgdev=/cps plotfile=op.ps . However note that at present, if a colour postscript device ( pgdev = `/cps'), a fits file ( pgdev = `/fits') or a ppm file ( pgdev = `/ppm') are selected, the task in fact bypasses pgplot and writes the postscript file directly. ...

To Solve Dark Matter Problem Without Dark Matter Chongming Xu Lohrmann Observatory, Dresden, Germany In this paper, we point out the main character of dark matter: invisible and dissipationless (or fully transparent) to be the same as the one of the gravitational eld. There are several alternative gravitational theories to revise general relativity and Newtonian law to explain the rotation curve of the spiral galaxies without dark matter. ...

... 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. ...
