Observations of Interstellar Reddening in Cygnus and Perseus [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1965 The Object of the Edinburgh Spectrophotometry Survey is to determine the interstellar extinction law as precisely as possible and to search for intrinsic variations in it. The observations have been extended to early type stars up to a limiting magnitude of 11ṃ0 in regions extending from lII = 50° to lII = 200°.

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

Studying the Interstellar Medium of H II/BCD Galaxies Using IFU Spectroscopy
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 We review the results from our studies, and previous published work, on the spatially resolved physical properties of a sample of H ii/BCD galaxies, as obtained mainly from integral‐field unit spectroscopy with Gemini/GMOS and VLT/VIMOS. We confirm that, within observational uncertainties, our sample galaxies show nearly spatially constant chemical ...

The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe interstellar extinction law is important for interpreting observations and inferring the properties of interstellar dust grains. Based on the 993 prism/CLEAR spectra from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), we investigate the 0.6–5.3 μ m ...

ULTRA FAST EVOLUTION OF SAKURAI's OBJECT
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017 We model theoretical spectral energy distributions of the "born-again" V4334 Sgr for our grid of hydrogen-deficient model atmospheres with a range of Teff = 4000-5000 K and log g = 1.0 - 0.0.

Lactea: Web‐Based Spectrum‐Preserving Multi‐Resolution Visualization of the GAIA Star Catalog
Computer Graphics Forum, Volume 44, Issue 3, June 2025.Abstract The explosion of data in astronomy has resulted in an era of unprecedented opportunities for discovery. The GAIA mission's catalog, containing a large number of light sources (mostly stars) with several parameters such as sky position and proper motion, is playing a significant role in advancing astronomy research and has been crucial in ...

Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 We investigate the spatial distribution of chemical abundances in a sample of low metallicity Wolf‐Rayet (WR) galaxies selected from the SDSS. We used the integral field spectroscopy technique in the optical spectral range (3700 Å–6850 Å) with PMAS attached to the CAHA 3.5 m telescope.

Revisiting Variable Stars Near Globular Clusters South of −29° Declination
Astronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 2, February 2025.ABSTRACT We review an often‐cited but seldom‐accessed catalogue by Fourcade and Laborde (1966) of 785 variable stars near 47 southern Galactic globular clusters, and recover the locations of 85 stars that were not incorporated into subsequent variable star catalogues and hence have become “lost” to the literature.

AGN Obscuration and the Unified Model
Advances in Astronomy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 Unification Models of Active Galactic Nuclei postulate that all the observed differences between type 1 and type 2 objects are due to orientation effects with respect to the line of sight to the observer. The key ingredient of these models is the obscuring medium, historically envisaged as a toroidal structure on a parsec scale.

Interstellar velocity components towards reddened stars [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000 ABSTRA C T The paper analyses the profiles of interstellar features observed towards heavily reddened stars. All the features show spectacular Doppler-splitting but the radial velocities of the single components as well as the number of such components vary from feature to feature in the same spectrum.
