Februar Lup Mon Pup Pyx Sex Vir Deklinationsbereic h: -35° ... 7° Fläche am Himmel: 1303° 2 Mythologie und Geschichte: Bei der nördlichen Wasserschlange überlagern sich zwei verschiedene Bilder aus der griechischen Mythologie. Das erste Bild zeugt von der eher harmlosen Wasserschlange aus der Geschichte des Raben : Der Rabe wurde von Apollon ausgesandt, um mit einem goldenen Becher frisches Quellwasser zu holen. Stattdessen tat sich dieser an Feigen gütlich und trug bei seiner Rückkehr die Wasserschlange in seinen Fängen, als angebliche Begründung für seine Verspätung. Um jedermann an diese Untat zu erinnern, wurden der Rabe samt Becher und Wasserschlange am Himmel zur Schau gestellt. Von einem ganz anderen Schlag war die Wasserschlange, mit der Herakles zu tun hatte: In einem Sumpf in der Nähe von Lerna, einem See und einer Stadt an der Küste von Argo, hauste ein unsagbar gefährliches und grässliches Untier. Diese Schlange soll mehrere Köpfe gehabt haben. Fünf sollen es gewesen sein, aber manche sprechen auch von sechs, neun, ja fünfzig oder hundert Köpfen, aber in jedem Falle war der Kopf in der Mitte unverwundbar. Fürchterlich war es, da diesen grässlichen Mäulern - ob die Schlange nun schlief oder wachte - ein fauliger Atem, ein Hauch entwich, dessen Gift tödlich war. Kaum schlug ein todesmutiger Mann dem Untier einen Kopf ab, wuchsen auf der Stelle zwei neue Häupter hervor, die noch furchterregender waren. Eurystheus, der König von Argos, beauftragte Herakles in seiner zweiten Aufgabe diese lernäische Wasserschlange zu töten.

  • Detection of Co Emission in Hydra I Cluster Galaxies
    DETECTION OF CO EMISSION IN HYDRA I CLUSTER GALAXIES W.K. Huehtmeier Max- Planek-Ins t it ut fur Radioastr onomie Auf dem Huge1 69 5300 Bonn 1 , W. Germany Abstract A survey of bright Hydra cluster spiral galaxies for the CO(1-0) transition at 115 GHa was performed with the 15m Swedish-ESO submillimeter telescope (SEST). Five out of 15 galaxies observed have been detected in the CO(1-0) line. The largest spiral galaxy in the cluster , NGC 3312, got more CO than any spiral of the Virgo cluster. This Sa-type galaxy is optically largely distorted and disrupted on one side. It is a good candidate for ram pressure stripping while passing through the cluster's central region. A comparison with global CO properties of Virgo cluster spirals shows a relatively good agreement with the detected Hydra cluster galaxies. 0 bservations Observations were performed with the 15m Swedish-ESO submillimeter telescope (SEST) at La Silla in January 1989 under favorable meteorological conditions. At a frequency of 115 GHz the half power beamwidth (HPBW) of this telescope is 43 arcsec. The cooled Schottky heterodyne receiver had a typical receiver temperature of 350 K; the system temperature was typically 650 to 900 K depending on elevation and humidity. An accousto-optic spectrometer (Zensen 1984) with a bandwidth of 500 MHz yielded a channel width of 0.69 MHz or about 1.8 km/s. In order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the integrated profiles usually 5 to 10 frequency channels were averaged resulting in a resolution of 9 to 18 km/s.

  • Molecular Gas Content of Galaxies in the Hydra-Centaurus Supercluster
    MOLECULAR GAS CONTENT OF GALAXIES IN THE HYDRA-CENTAURUS SUPERCLUSTER W.K. Huchtmeier ™ ** <$ '"" & ^ O Max-Planck-Institut fiir Radioastronomie Auf dem Hugel 69 , 5300 Bonn 1 , W. Germany • Abstract A survey of bright spiral galaxies in the Hydra-Centaurus supercluster for the CO(l-O) transition at 115 GHz was performed with the 15m Swedish-ESO submillimeter telescope (SEST). A total of 30 galaxies have been detected in the CO(l-O) transition out of 47 observed, which is a detection rate over 60%. Global physical parameters of these galaxies derived from optical, CO, HI, and IR measurements compare very well with properties of galaxies in the Virgo cluster. The Hydra I cluster (Abell 1060) is one of the nearest clusters and very similar to the Virgo cluster in many global parameters like type, population, size, and shape. Both clusters have comparable velocity dispersions (i.e. total mass) and are spiral rich. Hydra is well isolated in velocity space and appears more circular (Kwast 1966), and might be dynamically more relaxed, although the center may contain significant substructures (Fitchett and Meritt 1988) or projected foreground groups. Both clusters contain low luminosity central X-ray sources. We assume a distance of 68.4 Mpc for Hydra I in order to allow direct comparison with some (nearly) complete galaxy samples. The Centaurus cluster provides a valuable contrast to Virgo and Coma. It is intermediate in distance and in galaxy population type with a relatively well defined SO-dominated core and an extensive S-rich halo. Its richness class in the Abell scale is 1 or 2 which is richer than Virgo and poorer than Coma.

  • A Search for Ram-Pressure Stripping in the Hydra I Cluster B.A. Brown
    A search for ram-pressure stripping in the Hydra I cluster B.A. Brown (NASA GSFC) Abstract Ram-pressure stripping is a method by which hot interstellar gas can be removed from a galaxy moving through a group or cluster of galaxies. Indirect evidence of ram-pressure stripping includes lowered X- ray brightness in a galaxy due to less X-ray emitting gas remaining in the galaxy. Here we present the initial results of our program to determine whether cluster elliptical galaxies have lower hot gas masses than their counterparts in less rich environments. This test requires the use of the high-resolution imaging of the Chundru Observatory and we present our analysis of the galaxies in the nearby cluster Hydra I. Introduction A thorough understanding of the processes that drive x-ray emission in elliptical and SO galaxies has been long sought after. Characteristics intrinsic of individual galaxies have been examined, as well as environmental influences. Of particular interest, is whether ram-pressure stripping (an environmental influence) is an observable process in early-type galaxies found in groups and clusters. Ram-pressure stripping is one possible mechanism by which hot interstellar gas is removed from a galaxy. In this process, a galaxy moving though a galaxy cluster experiences a pressure upon its interstellar medium (ISM) by the intracluster medium (ICM). Ram-pressure can be expressed by P, = p,v2, where pe is the density of the intracluster medium, and v is the galaxy’s velocity (Gunn & Gott, 1972). This pressure could be sufficient enough to remove a significant amount of the ISM from the galaxy.

Some galaxy clusters exhibit shallow or even cored dark matter density profiles in their central regions rather than the pre- dicted steep or cuspy profiles, conflicting with the standard understanding of dark matter. NGC 3311 is the central cD galaxy of the Hydra I cluster (Abell 1060). Aims. We use globular clusters around NGC 3311, combined with kinematical data of the galaxy itself, to investigate the dark matter distribution in the central region of Hydra I . Methods. Radial velocities of 118 bright globular clusters, based on VLT/VIMOS mask spectroscopy, are used to calculate velocity dispersions which are well defined out to 100 kpc.

  • TSP 2004 Telescope Observing Program
    THE TEXAS STAR PARTY 2004 TELESCOPE OBSERVING CLUB BY JOHN WAGONER TEXAS ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY OF DALLAS RULES AND REGULATIONS Welcome to the Texas Star Party's Telescope Observing Club. The purpose of this club is not to test your observing skills by throwing the toughest objects at you that are hard to see under any conditions, but to give you an opportunity to observe 25 showcase objects under the ideal conditions of these pristine West Texas skies, thus displaying them to their best advantage. This year we have planned a program called “Starlight, Starbright”. The rules are simple. Just observe the 25 objects listed. That's it. Any size telescope can be used. All observations must be made at the Texas Star Party to qualify. All objects are within range of small (6”) to medium sized (10”) telescopes, and are available for observation between 10:00PM and 3:00AM any time during the TSP. Each person completing this list will receive an official Texas Star Party Telescope Observing Club lapel pin. These pins are not sold at the TSP and can only be acquired by completing the program, so wear them proudly. To receive your pin, turn in your observations to John Wagoner - TSP Observing Chairman any time during the Texas Star Party. I will be at the outside door leading into the TSP Meeting Hall each day between 1:00 PM and 2:30 PM. If you finish the list the last night of TSP, or I am not available to give you your pin, just mail your observations to me at 1409 Sequoia Dr., Plano, Tx.
