The cause of the shells is currently unknown, but possibly tidal tails related to debris left over from absorbing numerous small galaxies in the past billion years. Alternatively the shells may be like ripples in a pond, where the ongoing collision with the spiral galaxy to the right of NGC 474 is causing density waves to ripple though the galactic giant. ...

... HUBBLE DISCOVERS BLACK HOLES IN UNEXPECTED PLACES . ... Even more odd, these new black holes were found in the cores of glittering, "beehive" swarms of stars -- called globular star clusters -- that orbit our Milky Way and other galaxies. ... Supermassive black holes found by Hubble in the centers of galaxies represent about 0.5 percent of the galaxies' mass. Amazingly, the black holes now found in star clusters, which are 10,000 times less massive than a galaxy, also obey this trend. ...

We only see Gamma-Ray Bursts in very distant galaxies; galaxies so far away that it takes billions of years for their light to reach us. ... Astronomers think that Gamma-Ray Bursts are caused by the detonation of massive stars at the end of their lives. These blazing bursts of light are normally followed by a fainter afterglow. ...

... The parameter pgdev allows the user to specify a pgplot device, but, in contrast to the pgplot standard, the file name should not be included, but instead supplied via the parameter plotfile . ... To write a colour postscript file called op.ps: pgdev=/cps plotfile=op.ps . However note that at present, if a colour postscript device ( pgdev = `/cps'), a fits file ( pgdev = `/fits') or a ppm file ( pgdev = `/ppm') are selected, the task in fact bypasses pgplot and writes the postscript file directly. ...

... Research . ... A rare hybrid morphology radio galaxy . ... In this project we will be able to investigate the environmental effect on star formation and galaxy evolution in individual galaxies falling into the cluster through radio observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN).

To Solve Dark Matter Problem Without Dark Matter Chongming Xu Lohrmann Observatory, Dresden, Germany In this paper, we point out the main character of dark matter: invisible and dissipationless (or fully transparent) to be the same as the one of the gravitational eld. There are several alternative gravitational theories to revise general relativity and Newtonian law to explain the rotation curve of the spiral galaxies without dark matter. ...
