We present visible and near-infrared spectra of the nucleus of comet 28P/Neujmin 1, obtained in 2001, 2002, and 2003, while it had no detectable coma. The...
Nuclear Spirals as Feeding Channels to the Supermassive Black Hole: The Case of the Galaxy NGC 6951
We report the discovery of gas streaming motions along nuclear spiral arms toward the LINER nucleus of the galaxy NGC 6951. The observations, obtained using the...
Nuclear Star Formation Activity and Black Hole Accretion in Nearby Seyfert Galaxies
Recent theoretical and observational works indicate the presence of a correlation between the star-formation rate (SFR) and active galactic nucleus (AGN)...
Nuclear star formation in the hotspot galaxy NGC 2903
We present high-resolution near-infrared imaging obtained using adaptive optics and HST/NICMOS, and ground-based spectroscopy of the hotspot galaxy NGC 2903...
We present calculations that account for the infall of matter onto the heart of a starburst, a condition thought indispensable for causing the large...
Nucleosynthesis and the Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution of the Carina Dwarf Galaxy
The detailed abundances of 23 chemical elements in nine bright red giant branch stars in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy are presented based on high...
Number density of filaments in a random Gaussian field
The BBKS (Bardeen, Bond, Kaiser and Szalay) expression for the number density of maxima above a threshold in a random Gaussian field (RGF) is used to develop a...
In this paper, we present one method of numeric analysis for the star test with MatLab (ANPEM), applied to reflecting telescope. ANPEM finds the difference...
Numerical determination of the cutoff frequency in solar models
Context. In stratified atmospheres, acoustic waves can only propagate if their frequency is higher than the cutoff value. The determination of the cutoff...
