Discover the cosmos! ... 2003 May 11 . M83: The Southern Pinwheel Galaxy from VLT . ... Explanation: M83 is one of the closest and brightest spiral galaxies on the sky. Visible with binoculars in the constellation of Hydra , majestic spiral arms have prompted its nickname as the Southern Pinwheel. Although discovered 250 years ago, only much later was it appreciated that M83 was not a nearby gas cloud, but a barred spiral galaxy much like our own Milky Way Galaxy . ... About APOD | ...

Next: Emission-line galaxies Up: The Hamburg/SAO Survey for Previous: Line parameter measurements . In total 108 new candidates and 5 known ELGs have been observed. ... Only 2 of the latter have good enough S/N ratio to identify absorption features enabling to measure their redshifts. The remaining 20 objects appeared to be either stars with characteristic absorption lines or stellar objects with featureless spectra where the signal-to-noise ratio was insufficient to identify lines. ...

... Luminous blue variable (LBV) stars are the most massive stars with 40-120 solar masses, which are passing the short stage of evolution losing their hydrogen envelopes before exploding as Supernovae. These are extremely rare objects, only about a dozen of the most massive LBVs are known in the Galaxy. ... In the spectral observations of stars with infrared circular nebulae, found in the Spitzer survey (24 microns), a new LBV star in the Galaxy was discovered. It was named MN112. ...

Neptune, which is not visible with the naked eye, was discovered by mathematical prediction in 1846 before being observed through a telescope. ... Tidal interactions between Neptune and Triton mean that in 100 million years these two bodies may come too close to one another causing Triton to be torn apart leaving Neptune with a ring system more spectacular than SaturnтАЩs. ...

... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

Giant radio galaxies constitute a class of radio sources with linear sizes on the megaparsec scale (Saripalli 1988). ... The Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (WENSS) has discovered several cases of "inner-double" or "double-double" giant radio galaxies: the findings suggest that such structures predominantly occur among the larger of radio galaxies. ... Close to the core of B0114-476, a narrow jet-like feature is seen directed toward the southern inner lobe which also has the brighter hotspots. ...

... Tidal influence on each of the galaxies in our sample is quantified by identifying and measuring the distance to the nearest companion, using a photometric technique with good completeness characteristics. ... Massnormalised starformation rates were derived using galaxy stellar masses estimated from zband luminosities Nearest companions were identified using the algorithm illustrated in Figure 1. ... Some of the lowredshift galaxies in our sample with close companions are illustrated in Figure 3. ...

. The SAMI Galaxy Survey has now observed more than a thousand galaxies from the nearby universe. I will give an overview of the SAMI Galaxy Survey data and discuss some of the work being done by RSAA on the emission line properties, in particular the complexities associated with identifying shocks and some of the interesting galaxy features we ve found to date.
