It is supported by 15 EU member states, including new member states, and thus integrates the entire European optical interferometry community. ...

This page is devoted to information on Supernova 1998T in NGC 3690 . Information on the original web pages for many of these images can be found on the Supernova links web page. ... According to http://www.cv.nrao.edu/~jhibbard/a299/a299.html and http://www.ifa.hawaii.edu/postdocs/vacca/images/arp299buv.html it follows that Arp 299 (aka Mrk 171) is made up of IC 694 (UGC 646471) on the east and NGC 3690 (H-247-1) (UGC 646472) on the west. ...

... Sternberg Astronomical Institute , Moscow University . ... Present edition unites two parts of Catalogue of interacting galaxies by B.A.Vorontsov-Velyaminov: the first part (Part 1) containing 355 systems was published in 1959 [1] and the second one (Part 2) with 497 objects - in 1976 [2].Thus two published parts of Catalogue include 852 interacting systems. ... All new of them (1162 by number) were taken from the comments to the galaxies in Morphological catalogue by Vorontsov-Velyaminov et al.[ ...

... The distance scales of the objects are matched both by comparing the first derivatives of the angular velocity determined separately from radial velocities and proper motions and by the statistical-parallax method. ... Good agreement between the inferred 0 and our calculations based on space velocities suggests that the Lindblad relation holds throughout the entire sample volume. ... Brandt and Blitz (1993) published the distances and radial velocities for a total of 206 H II-regions. ... Astron. ...
