... The observed isotropy on the sky and non-uniform spatial distribution of gamma-ray bursts   (GRB) revealed by the BATSE   device onboard the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (e.g. Meegan et al. , 1992)[ 138 ] lend support to the idea of a cosmological origin of GRB (Prilutski and Usov, 1975;[ 165 ] Usov and Chibisov, 1975)[ 199 ] for which the best candidates could be merging binary NS+NS   or NS+BH   at high redshifts (z 1 -2), (Blinnikov et al. ...

Morphology and Models of Faint Galaxy Counts D.C. Koo University of California Observatories/Lick Observatory University of California, Santa Cruz Most models of faint galaxy counts continue to rely on transforming observed distributions of morphology of local galaxies to estimate the distribution of K corrections. ... For example, at B ё 24, our no­evolution models predict counts that are only 50% shy of the observed (Koo, Gronwall, & Bruzual 1993, ApJL, 415, L21). ...

Radio sources and their environments . ... Observations of the local Universe clearly demonstrate that very active star formation phases (starbursts) are often associated with interacting and merging galaxies and that in these systems much of the short wavelength emission is absorbed by dust and re-emitted in the IR. ...

The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

Next: M.E. Bailey, Director Up: Research Previous: C.S. Jeffery, Research Astronomer Contents . Dr Michael Smith has focused mainly on the earliest stages of stellar evolution: the processes leading to star formation from an initially unstable, collapsing cloud of gas, and the energetic outflows -- jets and winds -- associated with the formation and early evolution of protostars and pre-main-sequence stellar objects. ... Spectacular jets of molecules, however, betray its presence. ...

Chiaki Kobayashi, Ralph Sutherland How galaxies did form and evolution? - to answer this unsolved problem, we are simulating the formation and evolutionary history of galaxies in the Universe, including star formation, supernovae feedback, and chemical enrichment. Comparing the spacial distribution of elements within galaxies with observations, we will examine fundamental physical processes that drive galaxy formation. ...
