We present the discovery of debris systems around three Sun-like stars based on observations performed with the Spitzer Space Telescope as part of a Legacy Science Program, ``The Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems'' (FEPS). We also confirm the presence of debris around two other stars. ... ADS Citation Query . citations = 55 . citations vs. year [year,citations] . ...

... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

Studies of the Planck data set with optical and sub-mm follow-up observations give new insights about the early assembly of the first clusters, and the later evolution of their gas content as well as of their population of star-forming galaxies. ...

Observations of the local Universe clearly demonstrate that very active star formation phases (starbursts) are often associated with interacting and merging galaxies and that in these systems much of the short wavelength emission is absorbed by dust and re-emitted in the IR. ...

With the Square Kilometre Array planned to begin observations in around a decade and large neutral hydrogen multibeam surveys currently underway at Arecibo, the question of what we can learn about the evolution of galaxies through neutral hydrogen observations is very timely. ...

Next: M.E. Bailey, Director Up: Research Previous: C.S. Jeffery, Research Astronomer Contents . Dr Michael Smith has focused mainly on the earliest stages of stellar evolution: the processes leading to star formation from an initially unstable, collapsing cloud of gas, and the energetic outflows -- jets and winds -- associated with the formation and early evolution of protostars and pre-main-sequence stellar objects. ... Spectacular jets of molecules, however, betray its presence. ...
