Star Clusters in Mergers
Star Clusters in Mergers

... What can we say about the Stellar Component in the Antennae ? In our 1999 paper, one of our primary difficulties was differentiating stars from clusters. This led us to conclude that the number of young star clusters in the Antennae was between 800 and 8000, a pretty big range ! Our new ACS data pr ...

... The slow and transient solar wind can only be resolved and understood properly by a direct probing close to its sources at a fixed heliographic longitude. It is a key advantage of the SO that from the corotational vantage point the temporal and spatial variations of the solar wind can unambiguously ...

... active field of research, and there are still numerous unanswered questions about it. However, we can sketch enough of the rough outline to get a basic picture of what must happen. In some sense, this will give us an idea of the initial conditions for a calculation of stellar evolution. Stars form o ...

So the elements that make up life itself reflect a variety of events that take place in the Universe. The hydrogen found in water and hydrocarbons was formed in the momen ...

... It has not been easy to find old T Tauri stars, in the 10- to 20-million-year range, because such stars are hard to identify with IR and optical techniques. Recently, surveys of X-ray emission, especially with the German ROSAT satellite, have enabled detection of many stars that appear to be old or ...

The applied shift agreed with the expected value for the difference in heliocentric correction, and the same shift was found for all ...
