Explanation: A mere 11 million light-years away, Centaurus A is a giant elliptical galaxy - the closest active galaxy to Earth. ... Centaurus A's central region is a jumble of gas, dust, and stars in optical light, but both radio and x-ray telescopes trace a remarkable jet of high-energy particles streaming from the galaxy's core. ...

... 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"). ...

... Programme . ... Abstract: Centaurus A provides us with our best chance of interpreting many of the phenomena that we see in active galaxies. ... The talk will concentrate on the nature of the non-thermal emission and the interactions between the non-thermal and thermal plasmas on kpc scales, and attempt to generalize from Centaurus A to other radio galaxies at greater distances. go back .

The aim of this research project is to understand the emission mechanism(s) in these active galaxies: . how much power is ultimately due to accretion onto supermassive black holes and how much is due to star formation processes ? ...

... The distributions of orbits eccenttricities and of angular momenta for the halo stars and the old disk population are considered. The distributions have gaps separating the halo from the disk and dividing the halo population into three groups. ... Рассмотрены распределения звезд гало и старого населения диска по величине эксцентриситета орбит и угового момента. Распределения имеют провалы, отделяющие гало от диска и делящие населения гало на три группы. ...
