... February 22, 1999 . NGC 1316: After Galaxies Collide . ... WFPC2 , HST , NASA . ... A preliminary inspection indicates that NGC 1316 is an enormous elliptical galaxy that started devouring a smaller spiral galaxy neighbor about 100 million years ago. ... Most elliptical galaxies have more and brighter globular clusters than evident in NGC 1316 . ... One hypothesis therefore holds that these globulars survive from an even earlier galaxy that was subsumed into NGC 1316. ... About APOD > . ...

... In collaborative work with David Garc?a Alvarez (an Observatory PhD student now at Harvard) and John Butler, an extensive study of the RS CVn binary HR1099 was completed leading to two papers; the first on Doppler imaging and the second on flare activity. Spectra for the Doppler imaging were taken at two different sites, Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO), Arizona, and Mount Stromlo Observatory (MSO), Australia, during the 1998 MUltiSIte COntinuous Spectroscopic (MUSICOS) campaign. ...

A team of U.S. and German astrophysicists have made the first ever detection of X-rays coming from a comet. ... Following the initial detection, the team reported repeated X-ray emissions from the comet over the next 24 hours. ... One preliminary theory is that X-ray emission from the Sun was absorbed by a cloud of gaseous water molecules surrounding the nucleus of the comet, and then were re-emitted by the molecules in a process physicists call "fluorescence." ...

ESO PR 06/96; 16 February 1996 . ... In the early morning of January 31, 1996, Japanese amateur astronomer Yuji Hyakutake made his second comet discovery within five weeks. ... Information about some earlier comet encounters may be found in the Appendix at the end of this Press Release. ... By a straightforward extrapolation of the current brightness, it would appear that Comet Hyakutake will reach magnitude 1 on March 25, 1996, at the time of the closest approach to the Earth. ...

Astronomers Detect Coolest Radio Star . ... The new radio-star is much smaller and colder than our Sun.€а With a surface temperature not much higher than that of a giant planet, and a size comparable to JupiterтАЩs, it is scarcely visible in optical light.€а Yet the radio flares seen at Arecibo show it must have a strong magnetic field, implying that the same could be true of other similar stars. ...
