We present a quantitative investigation of the optical depth through spiral disks using BVRIJHK colors of 15 highly inclined Sab-Sc spirals and new models for radiative transfer in stellar disks. ... Preliminary comparisons of the observed optical and near-infrared (NIR) color gradients across galaxy dust lanes with predictions from radiative transfer models with slab and spherical shapes underscore the need for these realistic exponential disk geometries. ...

Detecting Bias in a Self-Organizing Map of Galaxy Photometry Data Zach Clayto , Peter Capa , Dan Maste 1 1 r 2 k 2 rs Ohio Wesleyan University, 2Infrared Processing and Analysis Center, California Institute of Technology Abstract High redshift (very distant) galaxy surveys record broad-band photometry for billions of galaxies in order to measure distances in a faster, more cost-effective way than spectroscopy. ... High-redshift galaxies can be identified efficiently in such a mapping. ...

You received images in the V and I-band of an unknown, partially resolved Milky Way dwarf satellite galaxy. Your task is to generate a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of this stellar system, find out what kind of stellar population it is made of (old, young?) and estimate its distance from the sun using well-known features identified in the CMD. ...

... Discovery of enrichment of the envelopes of post-AGB stars with heavy metals . As a result of monitoring carried out at the BTA telescope, a new phenomenon was discovered in the optical spectra of post-AGB supergiants with an emission at 21 ?m and an overabundance of carbon and heavy metals in the atmospheres - the splitting of the strongest absorption lines. ... Thus, we discovered for the first time the enrichment of the stellar envelope with heavy metals synthesized by the s-process. ...

... We consider the astrophysical evolution of the Galaxy over large time scales, from early stages (an age of ~10 8 yrs) to the end of traditional stellar evolution (~10 11 yrs). ... In the model considered, the basic stages of Galactic evolution are as follows. ... Essentially all other basic parameters of the Galaxy vary little. ... The final "stellar epoch" in the life of the Galaxy is completed ~10 13 yrs after its formation, when the evolution of the least massive stars comes to an end. ...
