Integral field units enable resolved studies of a large number of star-forming regions across entire nearby galaxies, providing insight on the conversion of gas into stars and...

The Catalog of bright diffuse Galactic nebulae was compiled in the frame of a thesis investigating the spatial distribution and the geometrical properties of bright diffuse...

Photoelectric and spectroscopic observations of the protoplanetary object V1853 Cyg, a B supergiant with an IR excess, are given. The observations were carried out with a UBV...

Based on echelle spectra obtained at the prime focus of the 6-m telescope, the detailed chemical composition of one of the components of the bipolar nebula identified with the...

We estimate chemical abundances and ionization parameters in the nuclear region of a sample of 143 galaxies from the Palomar Spectroscopic Survey, composed by star-forming...

Accretion states, which are universally observed in stellar mass black holes in X-ray binaries, might be expected in active galactic nuclei (AGN). This is the case at low...

We analysed new wide-field, wide- and narrow-band optical images of IC 59 and IC 63, two nebulae that are externally illuminated by the early B-star {gamma} Cas, with the...

The light curves of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are powered by the radioactive decay of ^56^Ni to ^56^Co at early times, and the decay of ^56^Co to ^56^Fe from ~60 d after...

We present a 30-50GHz survey of Sagittarius B2(N) conducted with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) with 5 - 10 arcsec resolution. We analyze the spectra towards three...

Massive evolved stars lose a large fraction of their mass via copious stellar wind or instant outbursts. During certain evolutionary phases, they can be identified by the...

We investigate the degree of spatial correlation among extended structures in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). To this purpose, we work with...

Six Tautenburg 2-m Schmidt telescope plates have been used to derive proper motions for 12740 stars down to Blim=18.5 in the region centered at RA=83.45grad, Dec=-5.20grad of...

Arcuate mid-infrared nebulae known as stellar bow shock nebulae (SBNe) have been previously hypothesized to be supported by the strong stellar winds and/or luminosity of massive...

The Chandra Carina Complex contains 200 known O- and B-type stars. The Chandra survey detected 68 of the 70 O stars and 61 of 127 known B0-B3 stars. We have assembled a publicly...

The Chandra Carina Complex Project (CCCP) provides a sensitive X-ray survey of a nearby starburst region over >1deg^2^ in extent. Thousands of faint X-ray sources are found,...

We present a catalog of ~14000 X-ray sources observed by the ACIS instrument on the Chandra X-ray Observatory within a 1.42deg^2^ survey of the Great Nebula in Carina, known as...

This work presents UBV photometry of the stellar populations associated with seven superbubble nebulae and five classical H II regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Although...

A survey of extended objects in the Magellanic System was carried out on the ESO/SERC R and J Sky Survey Atlases. The present work is dedicated to the Small Magellanic Cloud and...

We analyzed a deep XMM-Newton observation of the radio-quiet {gamma}-ray PSR J2055+2539. The spectrum of the X-ray counterpart is nonthermal, with a photon index of...

We present a detailed study of McNeil's nebula (V1647 Ori) in its ongoing outburst phase starting from 2008 September to 2013 March. Our 124 nights of photometric observations...
