... Abstract: We present Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations for spiral galaxies modelled as a stellar disk and a two-phase clumpy dust distribution. ... As a general result, clumpy models are less opaque than the corresponding homogeneous models. ... 0.00 0.15 0.50 0.1 0.5 1.0 2.0 5.0 10.0 0.25 X . ... We have also produced several homogeneous models, to compare to the clumpy models. ... Homogeneous and clumpy models with the same tauV have the same dust mass. ...

... Our resulting sample of ELGs presented in Tables 2 and 3 is not artificially biased to any specific type of galaxies. ... Since we are looking for selection of a sample of Case BCGs, it is interesting to examine how the detected BCGs are connected with Case emission-line codes. ... Altogether BCGs comprise about 60 % of all Case ELGs which display emission lines in our spectra, or about 44 % of all Case galaxies with some emission-line code. ... Among those with the code ``w'' about 40 % are BCGs. ...

We present a database of UV-to-FIR data of 83 nearby starburst galaxies. ... The NIR data are from new observations obtained at the NASA/IRTF and the Mount Laguna Observatory, combined with the published results from observations at the Kitt Peak National Observatory. ... In conjunction with IRAS and ISO FIR flux densities, all these data form a set of observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of the nuclear regions of nearby starburst galaxies. ...

... Figure 23: Binary pulsar fractions among the total number of pulsars   as a function of the mean kick velocity for a maxwellian distribution   (left-hand panel) and that fitting Lyne and Lorimer's data (right-hand panel). ... Therefore, the observed diversity and number of binary pulsars, while requiring a small kick velocity ( 100-150 km s ) to be present, are, at the same time, in strong contradiction with the presently derived high mean transverse velocities of pulsars. ...

... Fitting the observed dependence includes calculations of the polarization cross-sections averaged over particles orientation and size distribution, their normalization and the comparison of obtained dependencies with Serkowski's curve representing observational data for a chosen star. ... Variations of the polarization factors with wavelength are shown in Fig. 16 for homogeneous spheroidal particles with PF orientation. ... The distinction between prolate and oblate spheroids is also clearly seen. ...

Next: This Work Previous: Rotation Periods of ZAMS Stars . ... There are currently several groups involved in the studies of the rotation periods of PMS stars. ... Overall, there are about 100 rotation periods known for PMS stars. ... Furthermore, the stars with periods near 8 days also tend to have infrared excesses which can be interpreted as arising from disks. ... In the first interpretation, the gap occurs because locking mechanism holds stars at a eight day rotation period. ...

... In brief: the frequency-dependent radiative transfer equation is solved for a dust under assumption of spherically-symmetric geometry for its distribution taking into account particle size distribution and quantum heating effects for the very small dust particles. ...

... Armagh Observatory, College Hill, Armagh BT61 9DG, +44 (0)28 3752 2928 . ... A numerical simulation of the Oort cloud is used to explain the observed orbital distributions and numbers of Jupiter-family and Halley-type short-period comets. ... Virtually all observed Halley-type comets and nearly half of observed Jupiter-family comets come from the Oort cloud, and initially (4.5 Gyr ago) from orbits concentrated near the outer planetary region. ...

... The improvement will be more pronounced in our crowded Wide Field Camera (WFC) images, and may be increased further through use of a more sophisticated method of combining the individual dithered images. Our analysis allows us to check for point spread function shape variations in the HST Planetary Camera (PC) field. ... In crowded field images, we are deriving information about the faint end of the luminosity function (LF) from the texture of the image background. ...

... Within SAS, a tool is available to check the pile-up fraction in the pn data: epatplot . This tool compares the observed pattern distributions (derived from a pn calibrated and concatenated even list) with the calibrated models. ... The lower panel is the key element for the evaluation of the pile-up fraction: it shows the observed distribution of pattern as a function of energy (PI channel in Analog-Digital Units ), using the same color code. ...

Short-Period Comets: Origin and Terrestrial Impact Hazard . ... The model is consistent with the basic observed distributions of near-parabolic comets, short-period comets, Centaurs and high-eccentricity trans-Neptunian objects.This model requires that initial objects in the early Solar System are concentrated to the outer planetary region, and the physical lifetime of comets in the inner planetary region at the present epoch is an increasing function of initial perihelion distances. ...

A system of colliding galaxy clusters, nicknamed the Musket Ball Cluster, has been discovered.
