... Астронет | ... Star Forming Region S106 . ... Credit Copyright: GRANTECAN and IAC Explanation: Massive star IRS 4 is beginning to spread its wings. ... A large disk of dust and gas orbiting Infrared Source 4 (IRS 4), visible in dark red near the image center, gives the nebula an hourglass or butterfly shape. S106 gas near IRS 4 acts as an emission nebula as it emits light after being ionized , while dust far from IRS 4 reflects light from the central star and so acts as a reflection nebula. ...

... 2008 September 16 . W5: Pillars of Star Creation . ... JPL-Caltech , NASA . ... A likely reason for this is that the older stars in the center are actually triggering the formation of the younger edge stars. The triggered star formation occurs when hot outflowing gas compresses cooler gas into knots dense enough to gravitationally contract into stars. ... W5 is also known as IC 1848 , and together with IC 1805 form a complex region of star formation popularly dubbed the Heart and Soul Nebulas. ...

Next: Binary Radiopulsars with Black Up: Black Holes in Binaries Previous: Black Holes in Binaries . Two different types of stellar BH formation exist: (1) direct core collapse   of a massive star and (2) AIC of a NS. A BH of the first type presumably will have a mass comparable to that of the collapsing star and can be born both from a single star and in a binary system. ...

It is especially hard to explain this process of star birth in some spiral galaxies. ...

... If requested ( runbackground =Y), the task creates a background lightcurve, as well as a background spectrum for the imaging modes (FF, eFF, LW, SW) using background masks. ... The background masks are created by task badpixfind using threshold parameters, appropriate for the detection of real X-ray sources. ... As the GTIs strongly depend on the intended science this screening is not performed and only background masks, the lightcurve, and a GTI file are created by epchain . ...

... To move toward open analysis software, we plan to make the PROS regions subsystem available from processes outside of IRAF. We also plan to make the region descriptor parsing system available for purposes beyond the creation of masks, such as an interface to an image display program, accepting a region descriptor and generating commands to display the region on an image. ... Anticipating two kinds of new requirements, we reconsidered the design of the PROS region descriptor processing subsystem. ...

... The forcing by the solar wind is able to modify this field, creating a cavity called the magnetosphere. ... The outer boundary of the magnetosphere is called the magnetopause . In front of the dayside magnetopause another boundary called the bow shock is formed because the solar wind is supersonic. ... Solar wind and the magnetic field it carries along ( IMF ) modify the form of the magnetosphere, by pushing it in in the dayside and creating a long magnetotail in the nightside. ...

. This visible light wide-field image of the region around NGC 3582 was created from photographs taken through red and blue filters and forming part of the Digitized Sky Survey 2. The star formation region appears close to the center and is just one part of a vast complex of gas and dust in the southern Milky Way. The field of view is approximately 2.8 degrees across.

... To run the <LAYER> version of the example, select: flower.htm . ... However, if the page had several layers with absolute positions, and you wanted to place another layer in a relative position to one of the existing layers, you could use inline JavaScript to calculate the value for LEFT or TOP . ... In this example, there is really no need to use inline JavaScript to position the last flower layer, since you could just let the TOP value default to its natural value, as in the other flower layers. ...

In 1755, Immanuel Kant had the remarkable insight that stars and planetary systems form by the gravitational collapse and rotational flattening of interstellar clouds. Later in the 18th century, Marquis Pierre Simon de Laplace refined Kant s idea by suggesting that planets condensed from rings produced at the edge of a contracting disk while the Sun formed at the center a picture thereafter known as the Nebular Hypothesis. ...
