Ground-Based Mid Infra-Red Observations of Nearby Starburst and AGN Galaxies Bo jan Nikolic , Paul Alexander, Garret Cotter and Malcolm Longair Astrophysics Group, Cavendish Lab, Cambridge, U.K. Marcel Clemens Universita degli Studi di Padova, Italy Abstract. We present preliminary results of recent spatially resolved mid infrared (Mid-IR) spectroscopy with the MICHELLE instrument on UKIRT of NGC 7469, observed as part of a larger programme to study a sample of starburst and AGN in the Mid-IR. ...

Observatory, 125, 23­24, 2005 NEGATIVE REPORT OF OCCULTATION BY THE D-TYPE ASTEROID (773) IRMINTRAUD By Apostolos Christou and Mark Bailey Armagh Observatory An unusual negative observation is reported of the predicted occultation of the star HIP 186 by (773) Irmintraud on the morning of 21 July 2004. ...
