... 2002 March 28 . Centaurus Galaxy Cluster in X-Rays . ... Like other immense galaxy clusters , the Centaurus Cluster is filled with gas at temperatures of 10 million degrees or more, making the cluster a luminous source of cosmic x-rays . While individual galaxies are not seen here, this false-color x-ray image from the Chandra Observatory does reveal striking details of the central region's hot cluster gas, including a large twisted plume about 70,000 light-years long. ...

New 12CO J = 4-3 and 13CO J = 3-2 observations of the N 159 region, an active site of massive star formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud, have been made with the NANTEN2 and ASTE submillimeter telescopes, respectively. ... The 13CO J = 3-2 data were newly taken for the present work. ... The N 159 E clump is associated with cluster(s) embedded, as observed at 24нјm by the Spitzer MIPS, and the derived high temperature, 80 K, is interpreted as being heated by these sources. ...

... Most stars form in clusters, so the simple picture of star formation needs to incorporate the impact that young stars have on their environments, and each other. One region we study is NGC 1333, shown to the left as seen by the Spitzer Space Telescope. This is a тАЬproto-typicalтАЭ star-forming region located тАЬonlyтАЭ 1000 light years away in the direction of the constellation Perseus. ... Copyright 2015 Adele Plunkett. ...

Stellar Clusters are very useful laboratories for empirically studying stellar evolution. ... All cluster stars are at the same distance . All cluster stars have the same physical age . ... CM diagram Young Cluster In this case we see the Main Sequence fully represented. The blue dots represent massive stars with short main sequence lifetimes. ... Thus, identifying the most massive star which is still on the main sequence is an effective means of determining the age of a stellar cluster. ...

... The TRACE images may be used without restrictions in publications of any kind. ... These two images, taken on 18 November 2000 at 15:54UT and 16:11UT, respectively, show such an event: the red circle in the image to the left shows a region where many loops are cooling, with bright loop tops (the intensity scales with the square root of the image to reduce the dynamic range). ...

Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Stars . ... Starbursts are short-lived events, stars are forming so quickly that the reservoirs of interstellar gas from which stars are coalescing would be used up on a timescale much shorter than the age of the galaxy . ... Strong stellar winds from giant new stars in the starburst region combine with the blasts of supernovae to push a mighty flood of extremely hot gas, a ?superwind? from the galaxy thousands of light years into intergalactic space. ...

home publications > mercury . ... Big Clusters, Tiny Galaxies . ... Astronomers struggle to understand why giant star clusters form in the tiniest of galaxies . ... These clusters are probably young versions of globular clusters, but they are commonly called super star clusters. Seven dwarf galaxies within 16 million light-years have formed super star clusters, with one of these galaxies, NGC 1569, possessing two young clusters. ... Super star clusters have a lot to tell us about star formation. ...

Dense regions reach a maximum size and then fall back into a bound object like a cluster of galaxies. Once the cluster is formed, its physical size remains essentially constant. The space-time diagram below . shows a dense region in blue on the left. ... The galaxies in the blue region are accelerating more just because the region is denser and therefore has higher gravitational forces. ... Tutorial : Part 1 | Part 2 | ...
