... We compare our results with the GRANAT X-ray observations of the Galactic center (Churazov et al. ... It is instructive to compare our results for the Galactic center starburst with what might be expected for a continuous star formation, with the average rate characteristic for the whole Galaxy. For this continuous star formation model, we would expect to observe in the region of around the Galactic center about 10% of the total number of X-ray sources in the Galaxy. ...

... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

In 2001, Westerbork observations of the disturbed galaxy named VV-29 (alias Arp-188, UGC-10214) showed that there is second smaller galaxy (named VV-29c) that appears behind the western side of the main body of the distorted galaxy. ... The galaxy was featured as the May 2, 2002 Astronomy Picture of the Day . ... When VV-29 had its 15 minutes of fame in May 2002, it appeared under the name "The Tadpole Galaxy," but based on the images above, we will always think of it as "The CHAINSAW"! ...

It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms.

Study of galaxies in a nearby Lynx-Cancer Void: project and first results Pustilnik S.A. and Tepliakova A.L. (SAO) Dwarf galaxies residing in the very low density environment (voids) are expected in the frame of modern cosmological CDM models to form later and to evolve more slowely in respect of their counterparts in a more typical environment. The available data on evolution of void population are rather scarce and indirect. ...

... We publish 16 Doppler imaging temperature maps for the years 1994-2002 of the active RS CVn star II Peg. ... Through Doppler imaging we want to study the spot evolution of the star and in particular compare this with previous results showing a cyclic spot behaviour and persistent active longitudes. ... The derived temperature maps are quite similar to the ones obtained earlier with a different methods, the main differences occurring in the spot latitudes and relative strength of the spot structures....

THE ARGUMENT AGAINST LONG EXTRAGALACTIC DISTANCE SCALE Gaseous discs of S0 -- Sd galaxies appears to be gravitationally stable or close to stability. Dependence of the gravitational stability parameter of gaseous disc $M_g/M_c$ upon the color index $(B-V)^0_T$ which reflects a relative number of young stars, is found. Here $M_g$ is total mass of gas in a galaxy, $M_c$ - mass of gas which corresponds to marginal stability of gaseous disc at distances from center. ...
