The Study of Nebular Emission on Nearby Spiral Galaxies in the IFU Era

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
A new generation of wide‐field emission‐line surveys based on integral field units (IFU) is allowing us to obtain spatially resolved information of the gas‐phase emission in nearby late‐type galaxies, based on large samples of HII regions and full two‐dimensional coverage.

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm

open access: yesAstronomische 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

open access: yesAdvances 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 ...

ULTRA FAST EVOLUTION OF SAKURAI's OBJECT

open access: yesOdessa 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

open access: yesComputer 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 ...

Interstellar velocity components towards reddened stars [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly 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.

Revisiting Variable Stars Near Globular Clusters South of −29° Declination

open access: yesAstronomische 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.

Modeling of Interstellar Dust Grains

open access: yes, 2008
Dust has two major effects on light passing through the Interstellar Medium - Interstellar Extinction and Reddening. Interstellar dust grains are typically a fraction of a micron, approximately the wavelength of blue light and hence light passing ...

An Empirical Extinction Curve Revealed by Gaia XP Spectra and LAMOST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a direct measurement of extinction curves using corrected Gaia XP spectra of the common sources in Gaia DR3 and LAMOST DR7. Our analysis of approximately 370,000 high-quality samples yielded a high-precision average extinction curve for the ...

Interstellar Reddening Towards S188, Hw4 and We1–6 [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1993
Photoelectric UBV photometry of stars was carried out in the angular vicinity (radius = 15′) of 3 planetary nebulae. An extinction distance relation was constructed for the line of sight towards each planetary nebula. This relation was verified by published data on nearby stars and star clusters. The distances derived are 850 ± 300 pc for PK 128 −04 1 (
