This all-sky image shows the spatial distribution over the whole sky of the galactic haze at 30 and 44 GHz, extracted from the Planck observations. In addition to this component, other foreground components such as charged particles accelerated radially, known as synchrotron radiation, thermal dust, spinning dust, and extragalactic point sources contribute to the total emission detected by Planck at these frequencies. ...

... Iron abundance in the atmospheres of components of the binary system 41 Draconis . ... 5B Iron abundances, FeI and FeII lines equivalent widths, and microturbulence velocities were found for the components of a highly eccentric spectroscopic and interferometric binary system 41 Dra from high resolution spectra obtained close to the periastron. Weighted mean values of iron abundances in the atmospheres are lgN(Fe) = 7.66 ± 0.03 and lgN(Fe) = 7.72 ± 0.03 for the component a and b, correspondingly. ...

... MARX includes models of the AXAF mirrors, the low- and high-energy transmission grating assemblies (LETG and HETG), and the HRC and ACIS focal plane detectors. We discuss the role of MARX within the ASC Data System and present sample simulated images and spectra for two typical cosmic X-ray sources. ... A continuous emission measure model was constructed based on the published EUVE data (Dupree 1996); the peak emission occurred near 10 7 K. Simulations were run for both the HETG and LETG . ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the linear polarization of starlight due to extinction by aligned dust grains when the starlight traverses a medium with irregular magnetic fields. This medium is intended to represent the optically thick components of interstellar clouds which are observed to make little, if any, contribution to the polarization of starlight. ...

... 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"). ...
