... HST . ... Data . ... HST Overview . ... Regions with relatively low sensitivity will be multiplied by a large number in the calibration process, and so noise in these regions will also be amplified. ... Thus if the incorrect dark subtraction is made then residual dark signal can remain, making this region look "higher" (or lower) than the rest. Making a correct dark subtraction will remove this positive bias, but the noise of course will still be higher due to the lower sensitivity in this region. ...

... 640W A survey of ultracompact (UC) Hii regions has been carried out by searching for 6.669-GHz methanol maser emission from a sample of 535 IRAS-selected candidates. A total of 201 candidates exhibit methanol emission. These sources have been used, in conjunction with previously identified UC Hii regions, to provide a base for further studies of such regions. ... Methanol maser and/or radio continuum emission is found in 364 cases towards IRAS-selected regions. ...

Stromlo Professor Mike Dopita have used the Hubble Space Telescope to discover how a massive Black Hole in a nearby galaxy feeds itself. ... Earlier Hubble Telescope data obtained by another team member, Professor Holland Ford of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, had found a disk of gas rushing around the Black Hole at a speed of 500 kilometers a second. ...

I-GALFA View of a Galactic Tangent Region . ... Image featured in NAIC Newsletter #46 . I-GALFA image of hydrogen gas in a tangent region outside the Sagittarius arm. ... Because we are viewing this gas in a direction closely aligned with (tangent to) its orbital motion, it appears to be moving away from us (we are orbiting the Galactic center with a similar speed, but our own motion in a different direction). ... The gas near 60 degrees longitude is being viewed tangent to its orbital motion. ...

... It was shown in the early 1980's that spectral lines formed around 1-2.5 x 10 5 K were enhanced in radiance by factors up to 15-25 over the normal quiet Sun. From the dynamical viewpoint, this would suggest a pressure imbalance between the sunspot and the surrounding region. ... Here, the electron density was evaluated over a bright sunspot plume region using lines within the O V 760? multiplet. ... The derived densities in all four regions are indicated. ...

... region (region-7.9.3) [xmmsas_20080701_1801-8.0.0] . ... Local-background regions are in all cases annuli. ... Background regions of this shape should be chosen when there is no extended emission in the FOV, because OA-concentric regions are in general larger than source-concentric ones (thus offer better statisitics), yet sample everywhere approximately the same background level, because the value of the vignetting function is approximately the same at a given radius from the OA. fovbkgannulus =`no...

M100 is a challenging target. It has a diameter of 5.5 arcminutes and a total integrated magnitude of around 9.5. It is an excellent example of disk galaxy which has strong spiral structure. The Hubble pictures refer to only the inner 2.5x2.5 arcminutes of the galaxy, which corresponds to the brighter regions in the ground based blue CCD image.
