... We have mapped the 21-cm absorption in the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy NGC 1808 using the VLA AnB-hybrid array with a resolution of approx. 5.2" (= 275 pc). ... The velocity center of the absorption changes from about +120 km/s relative to the systemic velocity in the NW to -145 km/s in the SE, following the rotation pattern in the outer regions of the galaxy. ... The gravitational mass required to explain this fast rotation in the center of NGC 1808 is a few times 10^9 solar masses. ...

... A detailed study of NGC 3582 , also known as NGC 3584 and NGC 3576 , uncovered at least 33 massive stars in the end stages of formation, and the clear presence of the complex carbon molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). PAHs are thought to be created in the cooling gas of star forming region s, and their development in the Sun's formation nebula five billion years ago may have been an important step in the development of life on Earth. ...

... An analysis on new observational data taken with the MPFS and SCORPIO spectrographs indicates that we are dealing with the "galactic wind": the gas is blown above the galactic plane with the characteristic velocity of about 130km/s. The gas outflow is caused by a combined action of winds from the supernovae and young massive stars located in the galaxy's circumnuclear region. ... The most probable hypothesis is that the accretion of intergalactic gas clouds is feeding their star formation. ...

... We derive several relationships to obtain total IR luminosities from IR monochromatic fluxes, and we compare five different star formation rate (SFR) estimators for H II regions in M81 and M51: the UV, HЮБ, and three estimators based on Spitzer data. ... For the entire M81 galaxy, about 50% of the total SF is obscured by dust. ...

... 640W A survey of ultracompact (UC) Hii regions has been carried out by searching for 6.669-GHz methanol maser emission from a sample of 535 IRAS-selected candidates. A total of 201 candidates exhibit methanol emission. These sources have been used, in conjunction with previously identified UC Hii regions, to provide a base for further studies of such regions. ... Methanol maser and/or radio continuum emission is found in 364 cases towards IRAS-selected regions. ...

... This image shows clearly the 3-D structure of this star formation region: a large cavity, created by the radiation pressure from new-born stars located in the brightest area of the image, lies within a huge cloud of dust and gas. Identified as a truly indepedent star cluster, NGC 1980 is associated with this well-studied star formation region, around the brightest star seen at the bottom of this image, Iota Ori. ...

... It was shown in the early 1980's that spectral lines formed around 1-2.5 x 10 5 K were enhanced in radiance by factors up to 15-25 over the normal quiet Sun. From the dynamical viewpoint, this would suggest a pressure imbalance between the sunspot and the surrounding region. ... Here, the electron density was evaluated over a bright sunspot plume region using lines within the O V 760? multiplet. ... The derived densities in all four regions are indicated. ...

Background regions of this shape should be chosen when there is no extended emission in the FOV, because OA-concentric regions are in general larger than source-concentric ones (thus offer better statisitics), yet sample everywhere approximately the same background level, because the value of the vignetting function is approximately the same at a given radius from the OA. fovbkgannulus =`no...
