My research efforts have focused on three areas which are: . More than 200 extrasolar planets have been discovered around relatively nearby stars, primarily through the Doppler line shifts owing to the reflex motions of their host stars, and more recently through transits of some planets across the face of the host stars. ... Gravitational microlensing provides a novel technique to look for planets around lens stars, and this is the only technique currently capable of detecting Earth-mass planets. ...
... Complex astrophysical phenomena could now be studied spectroscopically: the X-ray absorption line forest intrinsic to Seyfert galaxies; the interaction between AGN jets and intracluster media; hot winds of starburst galaxies; stellar coronal plasmas; the charge -exchange emission of Mars' exosphere; the X-ray irradiation of protoplanetary disks; and the myst erious flat-topped spectral line shapes of O star winds. ... We estimate that Gen-X will be able to detect and resolve 20, 000 stars in NGC...
ST-ECF Instrument Science Report ACS 2003-001 The in-orbit wavelength calibration of the WFC G800L grism A. Pasquali, N. Pirzkal, J.R. Walsh March 5, 2003 ABSTRACT We present the G800L grism spectra of the Wolf-Rayet stars WR45 and WR96 acquired with the Wide Field Channel during the Servicing Mission Orbital Verification (SMOV) tests and the early Cycle 11 INTERIM calibration programme. ... The grism 1st order spectra of WR45 (left) and WR96 (right) are shown in Figure 6. ...
