    A bar signature and central disc in the gaseous and stellar velocity fields of NGC 5448
    We analyse Spectrographic Areal Unit for Research on Optical Nebulae (SAURON) kinematic maps of the inner kiloparsec of the early-type (Sa) barred spiral galaxy NGC 5448. The observed morphology and kinematics of the emission-line gas is patchy and perturbed, indicating clear departures from circular motion. The kinematics of the stars is more

    A Black Hole in the Superluminal source SAX J1819.3-2525 (V4641 Sgr
    Spectroscopic observations of the fast X-ray transient and superluminal jet source SAX J1819.3-2525 (V4641 Sgr) reveal a best fitting period of P spect=2.81678+/- 0.00056 days and a semiamplitude of K2=211.0+/- 3.1 km s-1. The optical mass function is f(M)=2.74+/- 0.12 Msun. We find a photometric period of P photo=2.81730 +/- 0.00001 days using a

    A Black Hole in XTE J1118+480
    Spectroscopic observations of this X-ray nova with the new 6.5-m MMT on Dec. 1 & 4 show that it contains a black hole primary of at least 6 solar masses. Our prior photometric observations using the FLWO 1.2-m telescope showed that the X-ray nova was near its pre-outburst brightness (IAUC 7390) at V = 18.8 on Oct. 26.

    A calibrated Hα flux map of M33: HII region luminosity function, and recombination emission from the warm ionised medium
    We have used a flux-calibrated mosaiced CCD image of M33 in Hα emission to produce a catalogue of the positions and Hα luminosities of 9190 HII regions complete down to a limiting luminosity LHα of 1036 erg/s and constructed a luminosity function (LF) from this catalogue. In contrast to previously published M33 LFs we find the slope of the function

    A Catalog of li Abundances and Equivalent Widths in a Sample of Galactic C-Stars
    In the first two papers of this series, we derived and discussed the abundances of lithium in a sample of 161 galactic carbon stars. Here, we extend this sample to 203 stars and we present the spectra from which these abundances were derived, as well as a tabulation of the equivalent widths of the λ6708 Å feature. A comparison of our measurements

    A Chandra Survey for M31 X-ray Sources
    We have compiled a database of Chandra-HRC snapshot images covering most of the M31 disk. The database consists of 5 HRC fields. All fields were observed at 16 different epochs covering a baseline of nearly 2 years. The merged image has a mean total exposure time of 17 ks. These data were analyzed to measure the mean fluxes of ~130 sources, most of
