We present Spitzer 3.6-160 О?m images, Spitzer mid-infrared spectra, and JCMT SCUBA 850 О?m images of the Sombrero Galaxy (NGC 4594), an Sa galaxy with a 109 Msolar low-luminosity active galactic nucleus (AGN). The brightest infrared sources in the galaxy are the nucleus and the dust ring. ...

The process of determining the number and characteristics of sources in astronomical images is so fundamental to a large range of astronomical problems that it is perhaps surprising that no standard procedure has ever been defined that has well understood properties with a high degree of statistical rigour on completeness and reliability. ... In this analysis we present results from testing such algorithms as implemented in the SExtractor, Selavy (Duchamp), and sfind tools on simulated data. ...

Should you need to know the radio environment in/around your observing band, you can remotely access yesterday's Hill-top monitoring plots and average spectra taken from the Gregorian Dome during the commissioning phase ( Present Environment ). If you are on-site, you may use various users' facilities available from ARTS-RFI to go through the accumulated hill-top database since mid-1995. ... The group can be reached at "rfi-grp@naic.edu" .

... 1Wills Accurate measurements of relative flux density have been made between frequencies of 468 and 5009 MHz for 300 radio sources selected from Parkes catalogue. ... Excluding the incertainties in scaling these flux densities to an absolute system, rms errors vary from 0.24 Jy and 2.4 % at 635 MHz to 1.8 % at 2700 MHz; uncertainties in "absolute" scaling are thought to be about 45 %. ... Some sources whose spectra may be useful for flux density calibration are noted. ...

... Next: The PROS Big Up: Software Systems Previous: Data Reduction Software . ... The srcinten task provides PROS users with a tool to compute count rates for point sources in the ROSAT High Resolution Imager (HRI). ... Corrected upper limits are cited at locations where the count rate falls below the source detection threshold. ... Srcinten is a new PROS task that computes and applies the above correction factors to the net counts in a user-specified aperture. ...

... We present near infrared broad band (J,H and K) and narrow band (H2 S(1)1-0 and Brackett gamma) images, and high resolution molecular observations (C{34}S(2-1), (3-2), (5-4) and {13}CO(2-1)) around the highly variable H2O maser located between the S235 A and B optical nebulosities. These observations are part of an on-going search for the sources of excitation of H2O masers in regions of star formation or, alternatively, for the earlieast evolutionary phases of massive stars. ...

... During the analysis of the surveys carried out on RATAN-600, it was found that almost one fifth of the detected sources shows significant radio flux variations. ... We used the data from "Cold" radio surveys carried out with RATAN-600 in 1980-1994 to search for radio sources with significant flux variability. ...

... The presence of solid­state emission bands is compared to other indicators of circumstellar material, such as Hff emission, optical variability and sub­mm continuum fluxes. ... However, a strong dependence on spectral type of the central star seems to be present: stars with spectral type earlier than B9 show either amorphous silicate in absorption or infrared spectra dominated by PAH emission, whereas more than 70% of the stars of later spectral type show silicate emission. ...
