In this gallery are many images of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies which have recently been discovered and analyzed. ... The central surface brightness of this galaxy is 24.28 . Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ...

The problem of eXtremely-Metal Deficient (XMD) galaxy ages. ... Problem of ages of XMD galaxies is addressed through the comparison of colours of stars in their outer regions (where one can neglect the effect of recent star-formation activity), with model tracks of evolving stellar populations from, e.g., the popular package PEGASE.2 (Fioc Rocca-Volmerange 1999). For some of XMD galaxies, the contribution of nebular emission in the light of outer regions is negligible or invisible. ...

... 1994: . Deep CCD images of the bright gamma-ray bursts GRB790418 and GRB790613 localization regions were obtained for the first time. In both cases, a faint blue star-like object (V = 24.5 m , BV m ) was detected within the region of localization of gamma-ray bursts. ... Based on sixty daily instantaneous spectra of the object SS433, obtained on the RATAN-600 in April-May 1994, we traced its variability in four very powerful flares at five frequencies. ...

NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

... The analysis of two-dimensional galaxy distribution in the Jagiellonian Field (JF) was carried out by the wavelet technique. The positions of galaxies were taken from the Revised Jagiellonian Field Catalogue (RJFC) based on digitized scans of the JF original photographic plates. We discuss briefly the procedure of star/galaxy separation applied by us to the RJFC, the algorithm and the first results of mapping of the selected parts of the RJFC. ...
