... 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. ...

... While this has been true for me in the last few months, that is not the only reason why it has been such a long time since the last occasion that a SN was discovered with my backyard 41cm telescope.

... Posts tagged ?false discovery? ... Without an optical afterglow, a galaxy within the 2 arc second error region of a GRB x-ray afterglow is identified as a host galaxy; however confusion can rise due to the facts that 1. the edge of a galaxy is diffused, 2. multiple sources could exist within 2 arc second error region, 3.the distance between the galaxy and the x-ray afterglow is measured by projection, and 4. lensing causes increase of brightness and position shifts. ...

... A tussle in the distant Universe. This Hubble Space Telescope image shows evidence for a merger between a quasar and a companion galaxy.
