... We present simple stellar collapse physical model which allow us estimate the time evolution of the most important physical parameters of Black Holes --- mass and specific angular momentum and disk formation time. ... The disk accretion play important role in acceleration of BH rotaion. The BH specific angular momentum can reach value more than $0.9$ for wide range of stellar envelop angular momentum. Then with out disk accretion in case of power low stellar envelop it limited by value $0.45$. ...

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. ...

It is now clearly understood that the problem of mass loss is crucially important both from the point of view of it’s influence on the evolution of stars and for the explanation of physical processes and observational data in active galactic nuclei (AGN). ... Absorption of the radiation by continuum opacity is responsible for such an evolutionary significant mass loss in cold massive stars. ...

... It is reasonable to expect that UV part of the irradiating spectrum is most influenced by the grain evolution (growth and sedimentation ) which marks the very initial stage of planet formation. 2 log J [erg s­1 cm­2] 1 0 -1 -2 -3 1000 BB 40 0 0 (A5 ) BB 20 0 00 (A5) Drai ne (A5 ) BP Ta u (A5) BB 40 0 0 (GS) BB 20 0 00 (GS) Drai ne (GS) BP Ta u (GS) Disk Model Density distribution is based on a 1+1D disk ...

... Mass loss Recipes | ... Mass Loss is the most important "driver" of stellar evolution in massive stars. ... The final goal is to predict mass loss over the entire evolution of a massive star at all cosmological epochs. ... Very Massive Stars are objects up to 300 times the mass of the Sun. ... Mass-loss rates increase dramatically when objects cross a critical Eddington Gamma factor (Vink et al. ... I have recently edited a book on "Very Massive Stars" including a mass-loss "chapter" . ...
