Telescope Planetary Camera Images of NGC 1316 ( Fornax A ) 1
We present HST Planetary Camera V and I band images of the central region of the peculiar giant elliptical galaxy NGC 1316. These high resolution Based on observations with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, obtained at the Space Telescope Science Institute, which is operated by AURA, Inc., under NASA Contract No. NAS 5-26555. The National Optical Astronomy Observatories are operated by the A...
متن کاملChandra X - ray Observations of NGC 1316 ( Fornax A )
2 Abstract We report the results of the Chandra ACIS sub-arcsecond resolution X-ray observation of the archetypal merger radio galaxy NGC 1316 (Fornax A). We confirm the presence of fine sub-structures in the hot Interstellar Medium (ISM). Some of these are likely to result from interaction with the radio jets, while others may be related to a complex intermingling of different phases of the IS...
متن کاملHubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations of hyperluminous infrared galaxies
We present Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 I-band imaging for a sample of nine hyperluminous infrared galaxies (HLIRGs) spanning a redshift range 0:45 , z , 1:34. Three of the sample have morphologies showing evidence for interactions and six are quasi-stellar objects (QSOs). Host galaxies in the QSOs are detected reliably out to z , 0:8. The detected QSO host galaxies have...
متن کاملHubble space telescope expansion parallaxes of the planetary nebulae
We have combined two epochs of Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 imaging data with ground-based expansion velocities to determine distances to three planetary nebulae (NGC 6578, NGC 6884, and IC 2448). We used two variants of the expansion parallax technique—a gradient method and a magnification method— to determine the distances. The results from the two methods agree to within the errors. A fourth...
متن کاملDrizzling Singly-Dithered Hubble Space Telescope Images: A Demonstration
The development of the IRAF/STSDAS package dither and its primary task, drizzle (Fruchter & Hook 1997), now give the HST user powerful tools for combining dithered images; however, these tasks do not provide a simple means for locating and removing cosmic rays, or other blemishes, from dithered images. Here we discuss several additional IRAF scripts that one of us (ASF) has written to simplify ...
