THE IMF LONG AGO AND FAR AWAY: Faint Stars in the Ursa Minor dSph Galaxy
The dwarf spheroidal galaxy in Ursa Minor is apparently dark-matter dominated, and is of very low surface brightness, with total luminosity only equal to that of a globular cluster. Indeed its dominant stellar population is old and metal-poor, very similar to that of a classical halo globular cluster in the Milky Way Galaxy. However, the environment in which its stars formed was clearly differe...
متن کاملPolarimetric observations of southern hemisphere young solar-type stars
A report is given on some linear and circular polarimetric observations of young solar-type stars. Despite a somewhat high level of instrumental polarization, the measurements were able to detect polarizations ∼ 0.0001 or 0.01%. Temporal variability has been discovered for 59 Vir with an indication that circular polarization is also present. A polarization at a level of p ∼ 1% was found associa...
متن کاملRadio observations of IRAS selected southern hemisphere classical Be stars
We present the first radio observations of a sample of 13 optically and IR bright southern hemisphere classical Be stars made from the Australian Telescope Compact Array at 3.5cm and 6.3cm simultaneously. One star, δ Cen was detected at 3.5cm and a second, µ Cen was also thought to have been detected; further observations of this source are required to confirm this detection. No sources were de...
متن کاملAbundance analyses of a sample of five faint blue stars in the galactic halo
High resolution optical spectra of five faint high galactic latitude B-type stars, identified from a magnitude limited survey, have been analysed using LTE model atmosphere calculations. All targets have small projected rotational velocities (≤30 km s−1) and hence may be evolved objects. This is supported by their chemical compositions, which indicate that they are old Population II stars; two ...
متن کاملFlickering faint galaxies : few and far between
Optical variability in galaxies at high redshift is a tracer of evolution in AGN activity, and should provide a useful constraint on models of galaxy evolution, AGN structure, and cosmology. We studied optical variability in multiple deep CCD and photographic surveys of blank fields for galaxies with Bj = 20− 25 mag. Weakly variable objects are far more common than strongly variable ones. For o...
