. Comment on J0126-0123 . No detection: this object has been studied with the Molonglo telescope at 408 MHz (Schilizzi & McAdam 1975) as a source with a size between 2 and 5 . It is near an Abell cluster (Owen & Ledlow 1997). The data could be confused with a strong radio source (3C 40) identified with a pair of galaxies at z=0.018, 170" from our field center.

On 19/20 October 1995 we used GRIM II to attempt spectroscopy of the 2.3 micron CO absorption band in stellar clusters. ... Read Noise Our typical backgrounds in 60s were about 100 DN (about 500 e), and so for faint objects our noise is utterly dominated by the read noise of about 110 e. We can think of three ways to improve this situation: integrate longer; reduce the read noise; or implement multiple reads. ... Flats The quartz lamps were too dim for flats. ...

These clusters are probably young versions of globular clusters, but they are commonly called super star clusters. Seven dwarf galaxies within 16 million light-years have formed super star clusters, with one of these galaxies, NGC 1569, possessing two young clusters. ... Super star clusters have a lot to tell us about star formation. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

. Authors: A.A. Suchkov , V.A. Marakov . Journal: Pis'ma Astron. Zh., 1976, v.2, p.38-385. Metallisity function of globular clusters in the Galaxy is constructed. It is found to have three "humps". This leads to a conclusion that there were three metal enrichment outbursts during the period of globular cluster formation. The constraints on the nature of metal sourses and on the early evolution of Galaxy are considered.
