... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

HI spectral-line observations of galaxies (Karen O'Neil) . Measuring the width, flux, etc. of the HI profile of two galaxies, using some combination of : dwarf emission line, HVC emission line, spiral emission line, and spiral absorption line. This project was designed to demonstrate the fundamentals of spectral line observing and position switching. ... The types of galaxies observed in this project are being kept open and will be determined when the project LST is known. ...

The Astronomical Catalog portion of CDBS contains several atlases consisting of both observed and model stellar,galactic, and emission line object spectra as well as HST standard stars spectra are available in STSDAS table format for use in the calibration of HST instruments, with synphot, with the exposure time simulators, or for any other purpose. this is it There are two independent directories containing the spectra of ultraviolet and optical standard stars. ... For details see K93MODELS . ...

... The R , I photometric observations of SBS 0335-052W were obtained occasionally during the study of SBS 0335-052 with the 3.5m telescope in Calar Alto on 1991 October 6. ... Aperture photometry was performed on the standard star observations using MAGNITUDE/CIRCLE task with the same aperture for all stars. ... For photometry of extended objects, we used the package SURFPHOT as well as dedicated software for adaptive filtering developed at the Astrophysical Institute of Potsdam (Lorenz et al. ...

... Using the self-consistent 3D hydrodynamical code in Kobayashi et al. (2007) , we simulate the star formation and chemical enrichment history of the Universe. ... We also predict the rates of supernovae and gamma-ray bursts, and the properties of the host galaxies, which will be observed with the ANU's new SkyMapper telescope. ...

Astronotes Armagh Planetarium's Stellar Blog! ... Space Flight . ... Earth Satellites . ... Leonid meteors seen from 13 km altitude aboard an aircraft during the 1999 Leonids Multi-Instrument Aircraft Campaign (Leonid-MAC). Comet Tempel-Tuttle provides the cometary debris for the Leonid meteor shower. ... Every 17-19 November Earth crosses Tempel-TuttleтАЩs orbit and the Leonids become visible. With clear, dark skies observers may see 10 to 15 Leonid meteors every hour on those mornings. ...

... Superb optical performance coupled with time proven computerized pointing and tracking has made the LX200 ACF series a best-seller in the high-performance telescope class. ... MeadeтАЩs new LX70 Series offers high-quality German equatorially mounted telescopes with slow-motion controls and heavy-duty steel tripods. ...
