... Research . ... A rare hybrid morphology radio galaxy . ... In this project we will be able to investigate the environmental effect on star formation and galaxy evolution in individual galaxies falling into the cluster through radio observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN). Current models of galaxy evolution regulate the star formation rates within the simulated galaxies by invoking radio-mode feedback from AGN. ... Julie.Banfield@anu.edu.au . ...

... We have examined the evolution of merged low-mass double white dwarfs which become low-luminosity (or high-gravity) extreme helium stars. ... After a certain mass is accumulated, a helium shell flash occurs, the radius and luminosity increase and the star becomes a yellow giant. ... We conclude that the merger between two helium white dwarfs can produce a star with properties remarkably similar to those observed in at least one extreme helium star, and is a viable model for their evolutionary origin...

... The improvement will be more pronounced in our crowded Wide Field Camera (WFC) images, and may be increased further through use of a more sophisticated method of combining the individual dithered images. Our analysis allows us to check for point spread function shape variations in the HST Planetary Camera (PC) field. ... In crowded field images, we are deriving information about the faint end of the luminosity function (LF) from the texture of the image background. ...

The ESA/ESO Astronomy Exercise Series 2 . The Distance to Messier 100 as Determined by Cepheid Variable Stars . ... The small variations in distance to the individual Cepheid variable stars in the Cloud are negligible compared with the much larger distance to the SMC. ... In this way Cepheid variable stars can be used as one of the 'standard candles' in the Universe that act either as distance indicators themselves or can be used to calibrate (or set the zero point for) other distance indicators. ...

... The spectrum of the brightest star, our Sun, shows several dark gaps perpendicular to the flow of it’s colours (figure 1). These so called spectral absorption lines where discovered in 1802 by the English scientist William Wollaston. ... Some stars as Pollux show a spectrum similar to that of our sun with strong Ca II and Fe II lines, others as Sirius or Vega show strong absorption lines of hydrogen, others, as Mira show very complicated spectra due to molecular absorption lines (see figure 5). ...
