The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

... July 13, 1996 . M81: A Bulging Spiral Galaxy . ... Explanation: Few stars are still forming in the old giant spiral galaxy M81. The blue regions in this picture - representing ultraviolet light - highlight regions of bright young stars and star formation and appear rare than in M74 and M33 . ... M81 is therefore classified as spiral galaxy type "Sab" on the Hubble Sequence of Galaxies . ... A massive density wave circulates around the center of spiral galaxies. ... About APOD | ...

... This represents the first HI selected sample covering the core and the outskirts of a local cluster of galaxies. ... Optically selected samples miss a considerable number of low luminosity, low surface brightness galaxies underestimating by almost a factor 2 the number of HI rich galaxies present in the cluster volume. ... Right: The g band luminosity function for galaxies in the A1367 volume as obtained from the optically (circles) and HI (histogram) selected sample. ...

The Big Bang was not an explosion from a single point, with a center and an edge. ... Each dot represents a "galaxy". Two of the galaxies have a ring of red photons moving out from them. Most of the photons are cosmic microwave background photons that were present since the Big Bang but which have been traveling freely only since 0.0003 Gyr after the Big Bang. ... However, all parts of the Universe started with CMBR photons, not just the two green galaxies. ... FAQ | ...

... Colours of stars and galaxies hold information on intrinsic and extrinsic parameters, such as stellar temperatures and galaxy populations, selective absorption and colour changes due different dust contents and inclination angles of galaxies, as well as galaxy redshifts and evolution. ... The colour magnitude diagram of 65000 galaxies to which all above-mentioned quantities and others contribute can only be explained by comparison with simulations. ... Colours are also of technical help. ...

Decomposition of Galaxy Images and Galaxy Rotation Curves Mosenkov A.V.*^, Savchenko S.S.*, Sotnikova N.Ya.* ... The DECA (DEComposition Analysis) code is designed to investigate images of galaxies in an automatic regime (using the simple 'bulge+disc' model) as well as in manual mode for more detailed images and/or for multicomponent structures. ... The GRCF package was created for performing the galaxies rotation curve decomposition using the models of the bulge, the disc, and the dark halo. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... MRAO Telescopes . AMI . ... This is a cosmic microwave background (CMB) telelescope with a difference, in that it is designed to survey the sky looking for galaxy clusters by means of the ?shadows? they cast against the CMB. This shadowing, the so-called SZ effect, is a remarkable phenomenon because it is independent of redshift, allowing AMI to find clusters which are so far away that their own emission would be too faint to detect ? ...
