... The concerns here are similar to those for observing bright targets; saturation and blooming of the bright companion PSF must not impact the faint target. Also, one may need to consider subtracting the PSF of the bright object, and effects which limit the accuracy of that subtraction. If the bright companion will saturate and bloom, it will be necessary to rotate the CCD so that blooming along the CCD columns does not obliterate the faint target. ...

... Science Users Information > Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Planetary Nebulae and HII regions in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5128 . ... NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

These values are compared to the observed H II region luminosities, yielding an estimate for the mean fraction of H-ionizing photons that escape the local nebulae in this sample. We formally estimate that, overall, 0-51% of the ionizing radiation escapes the local H II regions and is available to ionize the warm, ionized medium in the LMC. ...

This diagram illustrates two block boxes, one above the other, with rectangular clipping regions of different dimensions. ... Both axes depict increments of 5px. The clipping region of the first P box lies entirely within it, offset 5px from the top and left edges of the P box, and 10px from the right and bottom edges. ... The clipping region of the second P box resembles that of the first in style and position, except that the right edge is 5px to the right of the P box's right edge. ...

HI spectral-line observations of galaxies (Karen O'Neil) . Measuring the width, flux, etc. of the HI profile of two galaxies, using some combination of : dwarf emission line, HVC emission line, spiral emission line, and spiral absorption line. This project was designed to demonstrate the fundamentals of spectral line observing and position switching. ... The types of galaxies observed in this project are being kept open and will be determined when the project LST is known. ...

... 227Wink This paper containes an investigation of 91 sources which appear to be point sources when observed with the angular resolution of the 100-m telescope at 4.9 GHz, teta_a = 2.6', and which we expected to be HII regions. The basic search list was prepared from the 4.9 GHz survey of the galactic plane by Altenhoff et al. ... In the present paper we list 4.9 GHz flux densities only for sources for sources for which we present new observations. ... source structure indicated . ...

... Sunspots are manifestations of magnetically disturbed conditions at the Sun 's visible surface. ... Sunspot appear often in groups, and the sunspot number R is defined as R = k ( f + 10 g ), where f is the total number of spots visible to the observer, g is the number of disturbed regions (single spots or groups of spots), and k is a constant for the observatory related to the sensitivity of the observing equipment. Sunspots display a clear 11-year cycle in their number and latitude. ...
