Die anderen Teile sind Carina , Puppis und Pyxis . Argo Navis war das Schiff vom thessalischen Helden Jason und seiner Besatzung, den Argonauten aus der griechischen Sage. Es half bei der Suche nach dem goldenen Vlies des Widders und konnte sprechen und weissagen. Die hellsten Sterne der vier Teil-Sternbilder des Argo Navis besitzen immer noch eine durchgehende Bezeichnung mit griechischen Buchstaben, da Johann Bayer das Sternbild vor Nicolas Louis de Lacaille in seine Uranometria aufgenommen hatte. [bk6 , bk7 , bk10 ] Sternbild: Vela, das Segel des großen Schiffes, liegt im Band der Milchstraße. Die Sterne kappa und delta Velorum bilden zusammen mit iota und epsilon Cariane ein großes Kreuz, das von Unkundigen oft mit dem Kreuz des Südens weiter westlich verwechselt wird und deshalb Falsches Kreuz heißt. Die Fläche des Sternbildes beträgt 500 Quadratgrad und das Zentrum kulminiert jeweils etwa am 11. Februar um Mitternacht.

  • Giant H II Regions in the Merging System NGC 3256: Are They the Birthplaces of Globular Clusters?
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by CERN Document Server Paper I: To be submitted to A.J. Giant H II regions in the merging system NGC 3256: Are they the birthplaces of globular clusters? J. English University of Manitoba K.C. Freeman Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics, The Australian National University ABSTRACT CCD images and spectra of ionized hydrogen in the merging system NGC3256 were acquired as part of a kinematic study to investigate the formation of globular clusters (GC) during the interactions and mergers of disk galaxies. This paper focuses on the proposition by Kennicutt & Chu (1988) that giant H II regions, with an Hα luminosity > 1:5 1040 erg s 1, are birthplaces of young populous clusters (YPC’s ). × − Although NGC 3256 has relatively few (7) giant H II complexes, compared to some other interacting systems, these regions are comparable in total flux to about 85 30- Doradus-like H II regions (30-Dor GHR’s). The bluest, massive YPC’s (Zepf et al. 1999) are located in the vicinity of observed 30-Dor GHR’s, contributing to the notion that some fraction of 30-Dor GHR’s do cradle massive YPC’s, as 30 Dor harbors R136. If interactions induce the formation of 30-Dor GHR’s, the observed luminosities indi- cate that almost 900 30-Dor GHR’s would form in NGC 3256 throughout its merger epoch. In order for 30-Dor GHR’s to be considered GC progenitors, this number must be consistent with the specific frequencies of globular clusters estimated for elliptical galaxies formed via mergers of spirals (Ashman & Zepf 1993).

Called “Cool Stars, Stellar Systems, and the Sun,” the meeting empha- sized the solar stellar connection and focused discussion on “several topics … in which the similarity is manifest: the structures of chromospheres and coronae, stellar activity, and the phenomena of mass loss,” according to the preface of the resulting, “Special Report of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.” We could easily have chosen the same topics for this meeting. Over the summer of 1980, the group met again in Bonas, France and then back in Cambridge in 1981. Nearly 40 years on, I am comfortable saying these workshops have evolved to be the premier conference series for cool star research. Cool Stars has been held largely biennially, alternating between North America and Europe. Over that time, the field of stellar astro- physics has been upended several times, first by results from Hubble, then ROSAT, then Keck and other large aperture ground-based adaptive optics telescopes.

  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In
    Abasic requirement for studying the heavens is determining where in the sky things are. To specify sky positions, astronomers have developed several coordinate systems. Each uses a coordinate grid projected on to the celestial sphere, in analogy to the geographic coordinate system used on the surface of the Earth. The coordinate systems differ only in their choice of the fundamental plane, which divides the sky into two equal hemispheres along a great circle (the fundamental plane of the geographic system is the Earth's equator) . Each coordinate system is named for its choice of fundamental plane. The equatorial coordinate system is probably the most widely used celestial coordinate system. It is also the one most closely related to the geographic coordinate system, because they use the same fun­ damental plane and the same poles. The projection of the Earth's equator onto the celestial sphere is called the celestial equator. Similarly, projecting the geographic poles on to the celest ial sphere defines the north and south celestial poles. However, there is an important difference between the equatorial and geographic coordinate systems: the geographic system is fixed to the Earth; it rotates as the Earth does . The equatorial system is fixed to the stars, so it appears to rotate across the sky with the stars, but of course it's really the Earth rotating under the fixed sky. The latitudinal (latitude-like) angle of the equatorial system is called declination (Dec for short) . It measures the angle of an object above or below the celestial equator. The longitud inal angle is called the right ascension (RA for short).

  • The List of Possible Double and Multiple Open Clusters Between Galactic Longitudes 240O and 270O
    The list of possible double and multiple open clusters between galactic longitudes 240o and 270o Juan Casado Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona, 08193, Bellaterra, Catalonia, Spain Email: [email protected] Abstract This work studies the candidate double and multiple open clusters (OCs) in the galactic sector from l = 240o to l = 270o, which contains the Vela-Puppis star formation region. To do that, we have searched the most recent and complete catalogues of OCs by hand to get an extensive list of 22 groups of OCs involving 80 candidate members. Gaia EDR3 has been used to review some of the candidate OCs and look for new OCs near the candidate groups. Gaia data also permitted filtering out most of the field sources that are not member stars of the OCs. The plotting of combined colour-magnitude diagrams of candidate pairs has allowed, in several cases, endorsing or discarding their link. The most likely systems are formed by OCs less than 0.1 Gyr old, with only one eccentric OC in this respect. No probable system of older OCs has been found. Preliminary estimations of the fraction of known OCs that form part of groups (9.4 to 15%) support the hypothesis that the Galaxy and the Large Magellanic Cloud are similar in this respect. The results indicate that OCs are born in groups like stars are born in OCs. Keywords Binary open clusters; Open cluster groups; Open cluster formation; Gaia; Manual search; Large Magellanic Cloud. 1. Introduction Open clusters are formed in giant molecular clouds and there is observational evidence suggesting that they can form in groups (Camargo et al.

Very luminous extragalactic water masers, the megamasers, are associated with active galactic nuclei (AGN) in galaxies characterized by accretion disks, radio jets, and nuclear outflows. Weaker masers, the kilomasers, seem to be mostly related to star formation activity, although the possibility exists that some of these sources may belong to the weak tail of the AGN maser distribution. Aims. It is of particular importance to accurately locate the water maser emission to reveal its origin and shed light onto extragalactic star forming activity or to elucidate the highly obscured central regions of galaxies. Methods. We performed interferometric observations of three galaxies, NGC 3556, Arp 299, and NGC 4151, where water emission was found. Statistical tools have been used to study the relation between OH and H2O maser emission in galaxies. Results. The maser in NGC 3556 is associated with a compact radio continuum source that is most likely a supernova remnant or radio supernova. In Arp 299, the luminous water maser has been decomposed in three main emitting regions associated with the nuclear regions of the two main galaxies of the system, NGC 3690 and IC 694, and the region of overlap.
