چکیده
We have obtained a good quality R∼400 0.8–2.5 µm spectrum and accurate photometry of Gl 570D, one of the coolest and least luminous brown dwarfs currently known. The spectrum shows that Gl 570D has deeper absorptions in the strong water and methane bands at 1. ′ than previously observed T dwarfs. Data analysis using model spectra coupled with knowledge of the well-understood primary implies that for the same surface gravity, Gl 570D is about 160 K cooler than Gl 229B. For an age range of 2–5 Gyr Gl 570D has an effective temperature in the range 784–824 K, a log gravity in the range 5.00–5.27 cm s −2 , and a luminosity in the range 2.88-2.98 × 10 −6 L ⊙ .

We monitored 3C 273 with VLBI at 15–86 GHz since 1990. We discuss component trajectories, opacity effects, a rotating jet, and outburst-ejection relations from Gamma-ray to radio bands.

The combination of mid-infrared and recent submm/mm measurements allows us to set up the first comprehensive spectral energy distribution (SED) of the circumstellar material around a young Brown Dwarf. Simple arguments suggest that the dust is distributed in the form of a disk. We compare basic models to explore the disk parameters. The modeling shows that a flat disk geometry fits well the obs...

We present a possible Cepheid-like luminosity estimator for the longduration gamma-ray bursts based on the variability of their light curves. We also present a preliminary application of this luminosity estimator to 907 long-duration bursts from the BATSE catalog.
