EVOLUTION OF GALACTIC DISCS: TWO MODES OF STAR FORMATION ABSTRACT We develop the model of the evolution of surface gas density, stellar density, star formation rates and chemical composition of galactic disc taking into account the gravitational instability of rotating gaseous layer in the scales of several kpc. ... In the model we took into account the gas return from evolved stars, a radial movement of the gas in a spiral arms and accretion of the gas into the galactic disc. ...

Yu.V.Lunyova, A.F.Kholtygin . Chemical evolution of the system of galactic planetrary nebulae , Astrophysics , 45 , 451-463 (2002) . Chemical evolution of the system of galactic planetary nebulae beginning from the early age of the Galaxy is investigated. We calculate radial and vertical abundance gradients of C, N, O, Ne, Ar, Cl and S depending of different ages of the central star of the nebula. It have been founded statistically significant dependence of abundance gradients with the age of central star.

As an example for an observation of a stellar corona, a simulation of the response of RGS was performed. The input spectrum was a two component Mewe-Kaastra plasma, with solar abundance, and temperatures of 0.35 and 2 keV. ... The following image shows an intensity display of the measured spectrum with dispersion coordinate as measured in the spatial dimension on the RGS Focal Camera (RFC) along the abscissa, and the energy response of the CCDs along the ordinate. ...

Different regimes of gravitational lensing depend on masses of lens and correspond roughly an angular distance between images. If a gravitational lens has a typical stellar mass, this regime is named as microlensing because a typical angular distance between images is about microarcseconds in the case if sources and lenses are located at cosmological distances. ...

You Can Make Stellar Images Brighter . Articles | ... A few months ago I wrote an article titled "You Can’t Make Them Brighter". So why am I now writing that you can make them brighter. ... The image of a focused star is actually a small disk called the Airy disk, named after the 19 th century scientist Sir George Airy. ... For a given aperture, a smaller Airy disk means that the light is focused to a smaller disk and is therefore brighter. ... www.astronomy.net . About Astronomy Net | ...

... Previous: Substepping and its Application to HST Imaging . ... This is a preliminary report on an application of the co-addition technique based upon the Richardson-Lucy algorithm. The combination of high signal-to-noise ground-based images obtained with the ESO NTT using SUSI with high angular resolution HST FOC f/96 images gives new insights on the properties of galaxy cores and their potential time variability. Cores of galaxies are one of the main thrusts of present extragalactic research. ...

Pulsars (from PULSAting stARs) were discovered, albeit accidentally, by Jocelyn Bell at Cambridge in 1967. ... In addition, some pulsars are known to be members of binary systems in which the companion is another neutron star, a white dwarf and even a main sequence star. ... PSR B1913+16: . ... Although subsequent pulsar surveys with better sensitivity to short period objects have found a large number of similar objects, for 24 years PSR B1937+21 stayed as the most rapidly rotating neutron star known. ...

UPPER PANEL: The gas surface density map in log scale. The red circle in the center represents the central protostar. The development of spiral structure in the protostellar disk is evident. Dense protostellar/protoplanetary clumsp form within the spiral arms and are driven into the protostar by the action of gravitational torques. LOWER PANEL: The mass accretion rate onto the protostar as a function of time. The mass accretion rate is characterized by very short ( . ...

... 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. ...

... The circumnuclear GASEOUS disks are often decoupled from the circumnuclear stellar disks and are even stronger inclined to the outer disk planes; in fact, we have found a considerable `population' of inner polar rings. Inner gas polar rings are found as in spiral galaxies with the massive outer gas disks co-planar to the main symmetry planes (e.g. NGC 2841, Sil'chenko et al. 1997, and NGC 7217, Sil'chenko & Afanasiev 2000) as well in many lenticular galaxies (Fig. ...
