... As a summary I present a probable model for the evolution of the nearby starburst galaxies by taking into account observations of their large-scale and nuclear gas dynamics as well as numerical simulations of gas flows in galaxies. ... Thus, it is very likely that galaxy interaction plays an important role in the formation of bars . ... A good example is the barred starburst galaxy NGC 1808. ... In fact, one can nearly see the gas flowing toward the galaxy centre where it fuels the nuclear starburst...

The Steady State model of the Universe was proposed in 1948 by Bondi and Gold and by Hoyle. ... At the time the Steady State model was proposed, the Big Bang model was in trouble because the value of the Hubble constant was clearly bigger than the inverse of the age of the Universe. ... Thus the Steady State model has flat spatial sections like the critical density Big Bang model. ... The Steady State model has no adjustable parameters to correct for this error, but the Big Bang does. ...

The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

Abstract . A self-consistent model for the dynamical and chemical evolution of dense interstellar clouds is examined. The model includes the basic atomic and molecular constituents of dense clouds and the reactions in which they are involved. ... The results of one-dimensional modeling of the early stages of collapse of protostellar clouds of different masses under the action of ultraviolet radiation are presented. Astrophysical applications of the results obtained are discussed. ...

... In this poster we propose a hypothesis that within fixed assumptions about internal physics (opacity, thermodynamics, nuclear reactions) a strict relation between the surface helium abundance and the entropy of the adiabatic part of the convective zone exists for all solar models. This hypothesis is verified with models under simplified physics (Christensen­Dalsgaard 1988) and with six evolutionary models computed by Christensen­Dalsgaard (1992). ... 1990, Christensen­Dalsgaard 1991). ...

... The magnetic field of the Earth has been investigated by satellites for several decades now, and enough of it is known to model its average strength and shape during different levels of overall magnetic activity. Presently the most used empirical global magnetic field models are the Tsyganenko models (1987, 1989) , referred to as T87 and T89, respectively, although even these consist of several submodels. ...

... Abstract: We present an extensive study of the radiative transfer in dusty galaxies based on Monte Carlo simulations. ... We have explored the dependence of A_l on a conspicuous set of quantities (Hubble type, inclination, dust optical thickness, dust distribution and extinction properties) for a large wavelength interval, ranging from 1250A to the K band, thus finally providing a comprehensive atlas of dust extinction in galaxies, which is electronically available. ...
