An ultra-luminous quasar with a twelve-billion-solar-mass black hole at redshift 6.30

open access: yes, 2015
So far, roughly 40 quasars with redshifts greater than z=6 have been discovered. Each quasar contains a black hole with a mass of about one billion solar masses ($10^9 M_\odot$). The existence of such black holes when the Universe was less than 1 billion

Current and future capabilities of the 74-inch telescope of Kottamia astronomical observatory in Egypt [PDF]

open access: yesNRIAG Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, Special Issue, PP. 271-285, (2008) - Egypt, 2014
In this paper, we are going to introduce the Kottamia Astronomical Observatory, KAO, to the astronomical community. The current status of the telescope together with the available instrumentations is described. An upgrade stage including a new optical system and a computer controlling of both the telescope and dome are achieved. The specifications of a

The infrared spectra of very large, compact, highly symmetric, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)

open access: yes, 2008
The mid-infrared spectra of large PAHs ranging from C54H18 to C130H28 are determined computationally using Density Functional Theory. Trends in the band positions and intensities as a function of PAH size, charge and geometry are discussed. Regarding the

The Pinhole/Occulter as a tool for X-ray astronomy [PDF]

open access: yes
The two X-ray transform telescopes on the Pinhole/Occulter Facility (P/OF) will provide sub-arcsecond angular resolution, high sensitivity imaging in hard X-rays for the first time, as well as improved capabilities for timing studies and spectroscopy ...

Stellar synthetic spectroscopy in the Virtual Observatory era [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Spectroscopy and Virtual Observatory, Proceedings of the EURO-VO Workshop, Eds.: M. Guainazzi and P. Osuna, Published by the European Space Agency., 2008, p.169, 2010
Arguments for including in the VO large grids of synthetic spectra fully covering the HR diagram are presented. One obvious need is that of population synthesis at all redshifts. Theoretical spectra have also the power to predict peculiar behaviors, that could remain unnoticed in observed spectra, or lead to erroneous conclusions.

Use of optical fibers in spectrophotometry [PDF]

open access: yes
The use of single or small numbers of fiber optic fibers in astronomical spectroscopy with the goal of greater spectrophotometric and radial velocity accuracy is discussed.
