Solar High Resolution Studies . ... Dynamic magnetic fields continuously emerging from the solar interior on a wide range of scales, and their interaction with convectively-driven plasma flows, play a major role in shaping the whole solar atmosphere. Even though the fundamental spatial scales of turbulence and magnetic fields are still unreachable with present-day telescopes, polarimetric observations at the highest possible resolution will allow important insights into these issues. ...

... High-resolution Near-infrared Study of the Deeply Embedded Young Stellar Object S140 IRS 3 . ... P22P We explore the structures immediately surrounding the high-mass young stellar object S140 IRS 3 within the L1204 molecular cloud. ... The S-shaped structure of this feature can be well reproduced by a model assuming a precessing outflow from IRS 3a. Furthermore, we find several elongated features pointing away from IRS 3 in a southern direction. ...

... 640W A survey of ultracompact (UC) Hii regions has been carried out by searching for 6.669-GHz methanol maser emission from a sample of 535 IRAS-selected candidates. A total of 201 candidates exhibit methanol emission. These sources have been used, in conjunction with previously identified UC Hii regions, to provide a base for further studies of such regions. ... Methanol maser and/or radio continuum emission is found in 364 cases towards IRAS-selected regions. ...

... Radio astronomers at Arecibo Observatory observe a wide variety of phenomena in the Milky Way and in other galaxies. ... Some REU projects are carried out on pre-existing data, and others rely on obtaining new data. ... Deriving a new shape model from existing radar images has been a popular student project in past years, and there are data sets that could be used for this. We are collecting thermal infrared emission data for many of the near-Earth asteroids that are also observed with radar. ...

This is the first in a series of papers in which we describe and report the analysis of a large survey of Herbig Ae/Be stars in circular spectropolarimetry. Using the ESPaDOnS and Narval high-resolution spectropolarimeters at the Canada-France-Hawaii and Bernard Lyot Telescopes, respectively, we have acquired 132 circularly-polarised spectra of 70 Herbig Ae/Be stars and Herbig candidates. ...

. Although this design reduces the vignetting seen at the NA2 guider. We do not have a good feeling yet what the effect might be on scattered light at the focal plane.

Molecular clouds in the central 200 pc of the Galaxy (the Central Molecular Zone ) exhibit different (and more extreme) physical properties than those in the disk, yet because this is the closest galactic nucleus, detailed studies of this region can provide insight on galactic nuclei in general in the nearby universe. ... In this talk I will present a case study of one of the clouds - a dense and unusual cloud, GCM0.253+0.016 - also known as The Brick . ...
