... Science Users Information > Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Planetary Nebulae and HII regions in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5128 . ... NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

We present IRAC and MIPS images and photometry of a sample of previously known planetary nebulae (PNe) from the Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy's Evolution (SAGE) survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) performed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. Of the 233 known PNe in the survey field, 185 objects were detected in at least two of the IRAC bands, and 161 detected in the MIPS 24 ЮМm images. ... We also explore the potential value of IR PNe luminosity functions (LFs) in the LMC. ...

... We have "detected" many "pulsars" at 16.675 ms and 75 ms, as well as a a bona fide 343 ms pulsar based on quicklook (fold and single pulse): it turns out to be a blind detection of B2020+28 at a ~14 arcmin offset. I attach the two detection plots from Beam 3; it was detected more strongly in Beam 4. Known pulsars are listed only within 10 arcmin, so this was a true blind detection!) ... Pulsar Detection! ... This pulsar was not listed as "Nearby" on the quicklook plots. ...

home publications > mercury . ... Astronomy Beat . ... Nearly four centuries ago, Galileo's simple observations of Earth's planetary sibling, Venus, buoyed the proponents of a Copernican universe. ... The Italian astronomer had settled into a new house in Florence and had begun to observe Venus, which in November 1610 would have appeared as an evening star, bright in the western sky after dusk. ... From these two observations, Galileo inferred that Venus must orbit closer to the Sun than does Earth. ...

... The Stellar Oscillations Network Group (SONG) seeks to study p-mode (acoustic) oscillations in solar type stars. ... The observation of many solar-like stars will also help us to understand how solar p-modes are excited and damped. ... Naively, the two or three orders of magnitude improvement over this provided by the normal 1 second time resolution of the KPNO CCD cameras should be quite sufficient for such a detection. ...
