It is shown that general populations of globular clusters and metal-poor field stars are components at least of three subsystems occupying different volumes in the Galaxy. The thick disk and proto-disk subsystems are genetically associated with the Galaxy. ... It is argued that heavy-element enrichment and the collapse of the proto-galactic medium occurred mainly in the period between the formation of the proto-disk halo and thick disk subsystems. ...

... 2) Physics Department, University of Puerto Rico at Rio Piedras, P.O. Box 23343, San Juan, Puerto Rico 00931 . ... We report the density structure of the ultracompact HII regions G35.20-1.74, G9.62+0.19-E, and G75.78+0.34-H2O. The density profiles are derived from radio continuum emission at wavelengths from 6 to 0.3cm. In the case of G35.20-1.74, a cometary UC HII region with a core and a tail, the spectrum of the core varies as Snu~nu^(0.6), implying that the density structure is ne~r^(-2). ...

We make a comparative study between the physical parameters obtained from the CS and NH3 spectra, and their relationship with the H2O maser emission. ... We find that both the CS and the NH3 lines are significantly wider in regions with H2O masers than in other regions. ...

... Iron abundance in the atmospheres of components of the binary system 41 Draconis . ... 5B Iron abundances, FeI and FeII lines equivalent widths, and microturbulence velocities were found for the components of a highly eccentric spectroscopic and interferometric binary system 41 Dra from high resolution spectra obtained close to the periastron. Weighted mean values of iron abundances in the atmospheres are lgN(Fe) = 7.66 ± 0.03 and lgN(Fe) = 7.72 ± 0.03 for the component a and b, correspondingly. ...

We review the evidence, from rotational modulation, for association of plages and spots on active binaries. ... There is a similar lack of evidence for BY Dra systems. The results can be interpreted as evidence for: (a) the presence of active longitudes which persist on some RS CVn stars for several years, (b) high filling factors in MgII emission and (c) lower filling factors, and therefore greater contrast, in SWP emission. ...

... We propose that the bimodal nature of the kick velocity distribu­ tion of radio pulsars is connected to the dichotomy between hadronic stars (i.e. neutron stars with no quark matter content) and quark stars. ... Here we propose a scenario in which the low­velocity part of the distribution is connected with normal (hadronic) compact stars, and high­velocity part is formed by objects with some amount of quark matter inside (hybrid or strange stars). ...
