Proper motions in a sunspot group with a δ-configuration and close to the solar disk center have been studied by employing local correlation tracking techniques...
On the Nature of Disks at High Redshift Seen by JWST/CEERS with Contrastive Learning and Cosmological Simulations
Visual inspections of the first optical rest-frame images from JWST have indicated a surprisingly high fraction of disk galaxies at high redshifts. Here, we...
Several facts regarding the structure of NGC 604 are examined here. The three main cavities produced by the mechanical energy from massive stars, which in NGC...
On the Origin of Lopsidedness in Galaxies as Determined from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G)
We study the m = 1 distortions (lopsidedness) in the stellar components of 167 nearby galaxies that span a wide range of morphologies and luminosities. We...
On the Origin of the Color-Magnitude Relation in the Virgo Cluster
We explore the origin of the color-magnitude relation (CMR) of early-type galaxies in the Virgo Cluster using spectra of very high signal-to-noise ratio for six...
On the Origin of the Type II Spicules: Dynamic Three-dimensional MHD Simulations
Recent high temporal and spatial resolution observations of the chromosphere have forced the definition of a new type of spicule, "type II's," that are...
On the Pair-instability Supernova Origin of J1010+2358
The first (Population III) stars formed only out of H and He and were likely more massive than present-day stars. Massive Population III stars in the range 140...
On The Parent Population of Radio Galaxies and the FR I-FR II Dichotomy
We test the hypothesis that radio galaxies are a random subset of otherwise normal elliptical galaxies. Starting with the observed optical luminosity functions...
On the Possible Existence of Short-Period g-Mode Instabilities Powered by Nuclear-Burning Shells in Post-Asymptotic Giant Branch H-Deficient (PG1159-Type) Stars
We present a pulsational stability analysis of hot post-asymptotic giant branch (AGB) H-deficient pre-white dwarf stars with active He-burning shells. The...
