The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... To avoid extensive numerical calculations in the statistical simulations, we treat the continuous evolution of each binary component as a sequence of a finite number of basic evolutionary states (for example, main sequence, red (super)giant, helium (Wolf-Rayet) star,     hot WD), in which stellar parameters significantly differ from each other. ...

... The Impact of HST on European Astronomy . ... These range from the study of nearby planets, the processes of star and planet formation, the stellar and interstellar components of galaxies, the discovery that most, if not all, galactic nuclei harbor a massive black hole that profoundly affects their evolution, to the realisation that the universe as a whole is undergoing acceleration as a result of a yet unknown form of dark energy . ...

Understanding the early phases of assembly and formation of galaxies is a challenge. ... The IAU symposium 317 at the XXIX IAU GA in 2015 will take place at the verge of a revolution that is brought about by the availability of unprecedent new data, provided by the Gaia satellite, space telescopes (HST, Spitzer) and by a number of large ground-based spectroscopic and photometric surveys of the Milky Way, M31 and external galaxies. ...

Amanda Karakas One of the most important research fields in astrophysics is the study of the origin of the elements. ... Asymptotic Giant Blanch (AGB) Stars: For low and intermediate-mass stars (with initial masses between about 0.8 to 8 solar masses) the most important nucleosynthesis occurs when stars evolve off the main sequence to the giant branches. ... This indicates that these stars obtained their unusual abundances via mass transfer from a previous red giant star, that has long evolved away. ...

Radio sources and their environments . ... Observations of the local Universe clearly demonstrate that very active star formation phases (starbursts) are often associated with interacting and merging galaxies and that in these systems much of the short wavelength emission is absorbed by dust and re-emitted in the IR. ...

The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

An Ancient Universe: How Astronomers Know the Vast Scale of Cosmic Time . THE CHANGING UNIVERSE: EVOLUTION HAPPENS! . b) Changes in Stars . One of the great discoveries of modern science is that stars (like people) live only a measurable life-time and then die. Although the lives of the stars are enormously longer than the span of a human life, we can learn about the life story of the stars by studying them at many different stages in their life cycle, from birth to death. ...

Close binary systems of the RS CVn and Algol type are characterized by a highly variable radio emission, from typical flux densities of a few mJy during low-activity (quiescent) periods, up to 1 Jy during strong flares. The origin of this radio emission is attributed to the gyrosynchrotron mechanism. Several observations of these stars have shown an evolution of the radio spectrum during both the rising and decay phases of flares. ...

It is now clearly understood that the problem of mass loss is crucially important both from the point of view of it’s influence on the evolution of stars and for the explanation of physical processes and observational data in active galactic nuclei (AGN). ... Absorption of the radiation by continuum opacity is responsible for such an evolutionary significant mass loss in cold massive stars. ...

Kaloshin Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow, Russia The orbits of the major and minor planets of the Solar system indicate that their dynamic evolution is essentially influenced by the effects of orbital reso­ nance interactions. ... One may expect that the orbital resonances can exist not only in the Solar system, but also in other star systems. ...

A very important stage in a story of formation of any new science is the shift from discussion of situation which are possible but do not occur in practice due to some reason to recognition of real phenomena of interest. ...

... According to modern views on the evolution and origin of stars, most of the stars are members of binary systems. ... After the second explosion, the pairs tend to break up and neutron stars and/or black holes fly apart. High velocities of radio pulsars are apparently largely due to this effect. ...
