We investigate the dust associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) N49 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) as observed with the Herschel Space Observatory. N49 is unusually bright because of an interaction with a molecular cloud along its eastern edge. We have used PACS and SPIRE to measure the far IR flux densities of the entire SNR and of a bright region on the eastern edge of the SNR where the SNR shock is encountering the molecular cloud. ...

... Cassiopeia A has been famous for being the youngest supernova remnant in the Milky Way for a long time. That changed in 2008 with the discovery of G1.9+0.3 by Stephen Reynolds at North Carolina State University. G1.9+0.3 is estimated to be 140 years old where as Cassiopeia A is estimated to be about 340 years old. б G1.9+0.3 is estimated to be roughly 26,000 light-years away whereas Cassiopeia A is around 11,000 light-years away. ...

On Nov 2 (b), strong evolution of the chain takes place during the LDE/CME event occurred in AR 7613 (see Figure 2 for details): new chain fragments are developed from the regions 1 and 2 eastward and westward respectively. (d)-(e) - Comparing the Nobeyama radio heliograms with the Yohkoh/SXT images, one can see that during three days the long-living chain between sources 1 and 2 coincides with a sharp SE boundary of the large coronal hole. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... 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. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... Finally, millimetre interferometry over long baselines, longer than a few hundred metres, is not possible except in the very best conditions, specifically a very dry atmosphere well below freezing at high altitude, otherwise atmos-pheric phase fluctuations are so large that they make observing impossible. I thought gloomily about these maxims as I drove from Sydney to Narrabri for a Compact Array observation at 3 mm wavelength on 3 km baselines and saw cloudy skies. ... It's just not right. ...

M33, the great spiral galaxy in Triangulum, is considered by many to be the ultimate test of an autumn night's transparency. Known for its low surface brightness (luminosity per unit area on the sky), many an amateur has spent long hours searching for it to no avail. ... The problem is that M33 is big ? too big. ... The trick to seeing it, whether with the naked eye, binoculars — or a telescope for that matter — is to use averted vision and scan the area very slowly. ...

... Here are some tips on how to get the best guiding out of our current system. ... NA2 Guider Tips . ... Optical double stars, late-type galaxies, and bipolar PNs may pose a problem for guiding, as will objects where you desire to observe a position away from the bright center (e.g., SNs near bright galaxies). ... Field Star is good if your object is too faint or asymmetrical for Boresight guiding, or if you need the slit to be off-center. ... Use Field Star guiding almost always. ...

If you have a good monitor, you can also see the very sharp trails left by some stars. The reddish, lava-like zig-zag trails on the right-hand side of the foreground are left by the light of cars moving between the telescopes. (larger jpeg , 1260k) .

... 2004: . ... An increase in star brightness is followed by a decrease in asphericity and wind velocity to the point where stationary and even accreting fraction of the wind appears in extremely bright objects together with a flowing out fraction. ... Based on an analysis of observations obtained with BTA and on the published data it was found that degree of abnormality of energy distribution in continuum of magnetic chemically peculiar stars increases with an increase of their rotation period. ...
