We compare atomic gas, molecular gas, and the recent star formation rate (SFR) inferred from HЮБ in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). ... This allows us to disentangle conversion factor effects from the impact of metallicity on the formation and star formation efficiency of molecular gas. ... At a fixed total gas surface density the SMC has a 5-10 times lower molecular gas fraction (and star formation rate) than large spiral galaxies. ...

... A universal physical relation for quasars . ... Harvey Tananbaum and his collaborators have first observed a relation between the soft X-ray and the optical/ultraviolet emission in AGN in 1979. Such relation is nonlinear, and it is usually parameterized as dependence between the logarithm of the monochromatic luminosities at 2500 †Е ( L 2500†Е ) and 2 keV ( L 2keV ) . ... Yet, the dispersion along the L 2500†Е тАУ L 2keV relationship is found to be rather high, typically ~0.35тАУ0.4 in log units. ...

... Most of the spirals discussed in the following are well-known starburst galaxies (M 82, NGC 253, etc.) In addition to their nuclear activity, which makes them so popular, the selected galaxies have several other phenomena in common, such as bars, gas outflow, and possibly nuclear rings. ... I will show that the gas dynamics in the outer and inner parts of these galaxies are strongly related to their starburst activity. ... NGC 253 . ...

... SUN MOON MERCURY VENUS MARS, JUPITER SATURN . ... Mars . ... Previously understood that magnetic fields were directly related to rotation, so when I read that Mars, like Venus, didn't have one, my understanding crumbled. What exactly causes magnetic fields in planets? ... RELATED TOPICS: MAGNETIC FIELD . Planetary magnetic fields are definitely related to rotation, but directly not so much. ...

A comparative study of type I and type II supernovae . ... Sternberg State Astronomical Institute, Moscow, U.S.S.R. (Received 26 November, 1985) . ... No significant difference between SNe I and SNe II has been found in their radial distribution and frequency of outbursts in spiral galaxies. ... The radial distribution of type Ia SNe in spiral galaxies is only slightly steeper than the one for SNe II, while SNe Ib/c are more concentrated towards the central regions. ...

... Scaling relations of galaxies: . ... 2007) . ... This research is now being extended to other clusters such as Hydra and Centaurus, by Ingo Misgeld . ... 2007 , Misgeld et al. 2008 and 2009 ) support a picture where the scaling relations of dwarf galaxies are shaped more by internal than external agents, given that colour-magnitude and magnitude-surface brightness relations agree quite well between the low-density Local Group environment and dense clusters like Fornax and Hydra. Misgeld et al. ...

Do LIRGs follow the Tully-Fisher relation? ... For a small we can say majority of investigate i Conclusion number of galaxies in our sample, that the T-F relation holds. ... The purpose of this research was to study the LIRGs (Luminous Infrared Galaxies) and see if they follow the Tully-Fisher relation. The LIRGs are different to normal galaxies in the fact that they emit 90% of their light in infrared. ... The faster the galaxy rotates, the wider is the emission line in velocity. ...

... Mindful of these biases, I can now explore the relations between the measured rotation periods and various other observables. The hypothesis behind monitoring stellar variability is that active stars have asymmetric spot distributions on their photospheres. ... They found that only stars with rotation periods greater than seven days show variations greater than 0.4 magnitudes at I. Bouvier et al . ... 1993a) demonstrated a relation between X--ray flux and spectral type in ZAMS stars. ...

The ESA/ESO Astronomy Exercise Series 2 . The Distance to Messier 100 as Determined by Cepheid Variable Stars . ... The small variations in distance to the individual Cepheid variable stars in the Cloud are negligible compared with the much larger distance to the SMC. ... In this way Cepheid variable stars can be used as one of the 'standard candles' in the Universe that act either as distance indicators themselves or can be used to calibrate (or set the zero point for) other distance indicators. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Mad Science . ... Or..why don't the planets orbit the sun in the same plane as the sun orbits the galactic center? ... The writer suggested that the angular momentum of the stars was related to the original cloud that collapsed to form them and not the galaxy angular momentum. ... As I understand the answer to 902372110.as, if the stars orbit is not related to the galaxy spin, then I would expect the stars to orbit the galaxy at a multitude of random orbits and no disk to form. ...

The distance modulus, mod0 [mag] is either computed from the distance catalogue or using the Tully-Fisher or Faber-Jackson relations. When measurements are available in the distance catalogue , mod0 is computed as the weighted average of those measurements. ... The Tully-Fisher relation uses the corrected total magnitude btc and the maximum velocity of rotation vmaxg . ... Another parameter, modz (redshift distance modulus), estimates the luminosity-distance using the redshift. ...
