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.

As part of an effort to enlarge the number of well-studied Magellanic-type galaxies, we obtained broadband op- tical imaging and neutral hydrogen radio synthesis observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy ESO 364-G029. The optical morphology characteristically shows a bar-like main body with a one-sided spiral arm, an approximately exponential light distribution, and offset photometric and kinematic centers. The H i distribution is mildly asymmetric and, although slightly offset from the photometric center, roughly follows the optical brightness distribution, extending to over 1.2 Holmberg radii −2 (where µB = 26.5 mag arcsec ). In particular, the highest H i column densities closely follow the bar, one-arm spiral, and a third optical extension. The rotation is solid-body in the inner parts but flattens outside of the optical extent.

Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 1998 Calibration of the Extragalactic Distance Scale By BARRY F. MADORE1, WENDY L. FREEDMAN2 1NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database, Infrared Processing & Analysis Center, California Institute of Technology, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA 2Observatories, Carnegie Institution of Washington, 813 Santa Barbara St., Pasadena CA 91101, USA The calibration and use of Cepheids as primary distance indicators is reviewed in the context of the extragalactic distance scale. Comparison is made with the independently calibrated Population II distance scale and found to be consistent at the 10% level. The combined use of ground-based facilities and the Hubble Space Telescope now allow for the application of the Cepheid Period-Luminosity relation out to distances in excess of 20 Mpc. Calibration of secondary distance indicators and the direct determination of distances to galaxies in the field as well as in the Virgo and Fornax clusters allows for multiple paths to the determination of the absolute rate of the expansion of the Universe parameterized by the Hubble constant.

  • 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.

  • Minor-Axis Velocity Gradients in Spirals and the Case of Inner Polar Disks?,??

Pizzella, L. Coccato, and F. Bertola Dipartimento di Astronomia, Universit`a di Padova, vicolo dell’Osservatorio 2, 35122 Padova, Italy Received 4 March 2003 / Accepted 3 June 2003 Abstract. We measured the ionized-gas and stellar kinematics along the major and minor axis of a sample of 10 early-type spirals. Much to our surprise we found a remarkable gas velocity gradient along the minor axis of 8 of them. According to the kinematic features observed in their ionized-gas velocity fields, we divide our sample galaxies in three classes of objects. (i) NGC 4984, NGC 7213, and NGC 7377 show an overall velocity curve along the minor axis without zero-velocity points, out to the last measured radius, which is interpreted as due to the warped structure of the gaseous disk. (ii) NGC 3885, NGC 4224, and NGC 4586 are characterized by a velocity gradient along both major and minor axis, although non-zero velocities along the minor axis are confined to the central regions. Such gas kinematics have been explained as being due to non-circular motions induced by a triaxial potential. (iii) NGC 2855 and NGC 7049 show a change of slope of the velocity gradient measured along the major axis (which is shallower in the center and steeper away from the nucleus), as well as non-zero gas velocities in the central regions of the minor axis.

  • Dark Energy and Extending the Geodesic Equations of Motion: Connecting the Galactic and Cosmological Length Scales
    General Relativity and Gravitation (2011) DOI 10.1007/s10714-010-1043-z RESEARCHARTICLE A. D. Speliotopoulos Dark energy and extending the geodesic equations of motion: connecting the galactic and cosmological length scales Received: 23 May 2010 / Accepted: 16 June 2010 c The Author(s) 2010 Abstract Recently, an extension of the geodesic equations of motion using the Dark Energy length scale was proposed. Here, we apply this extension to analyz- ing the motion of test particles at the galactic scale and longer. A cosmological check of the extension is made using the observed rotational velocity curves and core sizes of 1,393 spiral galaxies. We derive the density profile of a model galaxy using this extension, and with it, we calculate σ8 to be 0.73±0.12; this is within +0.049 experimental error of the WMAP value of 0.761−0.048. We then calculate R200 to be 206±53 kpc, which is in reasonable agreement with observations. Keywords Dark energy, Galactic density profile, Density fluctuations, Extensions of the geodesic equations of motion, Galactic rotation curves 1 Introduction In a previous paper [1], we constructed an extension of the geodesic equations of motion (GEOM). This construction is possible because with the discovery of +0.82 −30 3 Dark Energy, ΛDE = (7.21−0.84) × 10 g/cm [2; 3; 4], there is now a length 1/2 scale, λDE = c/(ΛDEG) , associated with the universe. As this length scale is also not associated with the mass of any known particle, this extension does not violate various statements of the equivalence principle.

  • Lopsided Spiral Galaxies: Evidence for Gas Accretion

We quantify the degree of lopsidedness for a sample of 149 galaxies observed in the near-infrared from the OSUBGS sample, and try to explain the physical origin of the observed disk lopsidedness. We confirm previous studies, but for a larger sample, that a large fraction of galaxies have significant lopsidedness in their stellar disks, measured as the Fourier amplitude of the m = 1 component normalised to the average or m = 0 component in the surface density. Late-type galaxies are found to be more lopsided, while the presence of m = 2 spiral arms and bars is correlated with disk lopsidedness. We also show that the m = 1 amplitude is uncorrelated with the presence of companions. Numerical simulations were carried out to study the generation of m = 1viadifferent processes: galaxy tidal encounters, galaxy mergers, and external gas accretion with subsequent star formation. These simulations show that galaxy interactions and mergers can trigger strong lopsidedness, but do not explain several independent statistical properties of observed galaxies. To explain all the observational results, it is required that a large fraction of lopsidedness results from cosmological accretion of gas on galactic disks, which can create strongly lopsided disks when this accretion is asymmetrical enough.

  • Exploding Star in NGC 2397 31 March 2008
    Exploding star in NGC 2397 31 March 2008 Camera for Surveys (ACS). One atypical feature of this Hubble image is the view of supernova SN 2006bc taken when it was still fairly faint and its brightness on the increase. Astronomers from Queen's University Belfast in Northern Ireland, led by Professor of Astronomy Stephen J. Smartt, requested the image as part of a long project studying the massive exploding stars — supernovae. Exactly which types of star will explode and the lowest mass of star that can produce a supernova are not known. When a supernova is discovered in a nearby galaxy the group begins a painstaking search of earlier Hubble images of the same galaxy to locate the NGC 2397, pictured in this image from Hubble, is a star that later exploded; often one of hundreds of classic spiral galaxy with long prominent dust lanes millions of stars in the galaxy. This is a little like along the edges of its arms, seen as dark patches and sifting through days of CCTV footage to find one streaks silhouetted against the starlight. Hubble's frame showing a suspect. If the astronomers find a exquisite resolution allows the study of individual stars in star at the location of the later explosion, they may nearby galaxies. Located nearly 60 million light-years work out the mass and type of star from its away from Earth, the galaxy NGC 2397 is typical of most spirals, with mostly older, yellow and red stars in its brightness and colour.
