Compact Elliptical Galaxies [PDF]
We summarize our present knowledge on low-mass high-surface brightness elliptical objects near massive galaxies that are often called M32-type or compact elliptical galaxies. The origin of the low mass of these objects is a controversial matter: is it intrinsic to their formation or produced, as classically believed, by tidal stripping from the massive

On the rotation of elliptical galaxies [PDF]
The tensor virial theorem is applied to models of early-type galaxies. First the theorem is applied to rotating elliptical galaxies whose constant-density surfaces are similar ellipsoids. A relationship is obtained between the observed rotations and the forms of generally triaxial galaxies.

Revealing the dynamical behavior of stars in a prolate or oblate elliptical galaxy
We consider the motion of a test particle (star) on the meridian plane (R,z) of an elliptical galaxy with an additional central nucleus component. The shape of the elliptical galaxy can be either prolate or oblate, or even spherical by simply changing ...

Planetary Nebulae and the Ionization of the Interstellar Medium in Galaxies
We discuss the role of planetary nebulae and their progeny in galaxy context in terms of ionization of the galaxy interstellar medium. This regards ionized gas outside the disk of spiral galaxies, the diffuse ionized medium in spiral galaxies, and the ...

Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.

Active Galactic Nucleus Feedback in an Elliptical Galaxy with the Most Updated AGN Physics. II. High Angular Momentum Case [PDF]
This is the second paper of our series of works of studying the effects of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) feedback on the cosmological evolution of an isolated elliptical galaxy by performing two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations.

In this paper, we present the simple, one-step, self-consistent, and fast resonance scattering model rsapec based on the AtomDB database. This model can be used as an alternative to the commonly used APEC model for fitting X-ray spectra with optically ...

Formation of Major Types of Galaxies Based on the Energy Circulation Theory
The standard cosmology can answer almost nothing about how the structure of a galaxy is formed. It expects a supermassive black hole at the center and dark matter in the halo to explain the circulation of stars and its velocity.
