Detected Supernovae . The search have produced till now the detections of 4 SNe. ... This result highlights the power of infrared monitoring in detecting Obscured SNe and indicates that optical surveys are probably missing a significant fraction of SNe, especially in obscured systems such as starburst galaxies. ...

Credit: R Jay GaBany ( Cosmotography.com ) Explanation: One of the nearest supernovas of recent years was discovered late last month in the bright nearby galaxy M51 . ... The supernova has been identified as a Type II but has an unusual brightness history, creating speculation that is similar in nature to the brightest supernova of modern times: 1987A .

HI Distribution in the Region . of the Supernova Remnant G78.2+2.1 ( 2001 ). ... Based on RATAN-600 21 cm line observations with an angular resolution of 2.4' over a wide range of radial velocities, we analyze the neutral-hydrogen distribution in the region of the supernova remnant (SNR) G78.2+2.1. ... The brightness distribution of H I features at a radial velocity of +10 km/s after an extended background in the region of the Cygnus X radio source and SNR G78.2+2.1 has bee subtracted. ...

Armagh Observatory, 10 January 2003: A former resident of Armagh, Mr Terry Moseley, now President of the Irish Astronomical Association , was recently honoured by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) by having a minor planet named after him. The asteroid, the first to be discovered by David Asher, of the Armagh Observatory, was found at Siding Spring Observatory, Australia, on Boxing Day 1994. A reception to mark the event will be held at the Armagh Observatory on Wednesday 15th January. ...

... Massive stars, having 10-150 masses of the Sun, with metallicities Z tens to hundreds times less than that of the Sun (Zo), are the main regulators of the galaxy formation and evolution processes in the early Universe. ... In this galaxy, using the 6 m BTA telescope, a new massive blue variable star with high luminosity (>=10 5 Sun's luminocities in visible light) was found. As far as its properties are concerned, this star falls into an LBV (Luminous Blue Variable) class of stars. ...
