A Test of Galaxy Evolutionary Models Via Angular Sizes M. Im S. Casertano, R. E. Griffiths, & K. U. Ratnatunga (The Johns Hopkins University) The relationship between angular size, magnitude, and redshift of faint galaxies is explored as a potential tool to distinguish between different galaxy evolutionary models. ... The mild lumi­ nosity evolution model predicts more luminous galaxies of large angular size at high redshift, as does a standard no evolution model. ... 25) with redshift higher than z ? ...

A comparative study of type I and type II supernovae . ... Sternberg State Astronomical Institute, Moscow, U.S.S.R. (Received 26 November, 1985) . ... No significant difference between SNe I and SNe II has been found in their radial distribution and frequency of outbursts in spiral galaxies. ... The radial distribution of type Ia SNe in spiral galaxies is only slightly steeper than the one for SNe II, while SNe Ib/c are more concentrated towards the central regions. ...

Do LIRGs follow the Tully-Fisher relation? ... For a small we can say majority of investigate i Conclusion number of galaxies in our sample, that the T-F relation holds. ... The purpose of this research was to study the LIRGs (Luminous Infrared Galaxies) and see if they follow the Tully-Fisher relation. The LIRGs are different to normal galaxies in the fact that they emit 90% of their light in infrared. ... The faster the galaxy rotates, the wider is the emission line in velocity. ...

... We have studied scaling relations (virial mass versus CO luminosity, luminosity versus size, linewidth versus size) for molecular clouds in the 30 Dor and N 159 regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud. ... The study of molecular clouds in the Galaxy has resulted in a number of scaling relations between global cloud properties such as mass, density, luminosity, size and velocity dispersion (e.g. Larson (1981) , Scoville & Sanders (1987) , Solomon et al. ...

The ESA/ESO Astronomy Exercise Series 2 . The Distance to Messier 100 as Determined by Cepheid Variable Stars . ... The small variations in distance to the individual Cepheid variable stars in the Cloud are negligible compared with the much larger distance to the SMC. ... In this way Cepheid variable stars can be used as one of the 'standard candles' in the Universe that act either as distance indicators themselves or can be used to calibrate (or set the zero point for) other distance indicators. ...

It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...
