PG 1553+113: Five Years of Observations with MAGIC
We present the results of five years (2005-2009) of MAGIC observations of the BL Lac object PG 1553+113 at very high energies (VHEs; E > 100 GeV). Power-law...
PHANGS-HST Catalogs for ∼100,000 Star Clusters and Compact Associations in 38 Galaxies. II. Physical Properties from Decision-tree-based Spectral Energy Distribution Fitting of NUV-U-B-V-I Photometry with Categorical Priors Set by Hα Emission, Cluster Mor
This paper is the second in a series presenting the catalogs and properties of the largest sample to date of ∼100,000 star clusters and compact associations, in...
Photoionization Models of Metal-poor Extragalactic H 0 Regions and the Primordial Helium Abundance
We discuss the effects of collisional enhancement of Balmer lines on the determination of the primordial helium abundance. To this aim, we present a...
Photoionization Models of NGC 2363 and Their Implications for the Ionizing Star Cluster
Using the photoionization code CLOUDY, we compute photoionization models for the giant extragalactic H II region NGC 2363 and compare them with optical...
We have compared direct estimates of the ionizing photon flux from the stars observed within the H II region NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud with its...
We present spherically symmetric and plane-parallel photoionization models of NGC 346, an H II region in the Small Magellanic Cloud. The models are based on...
Photoionization of the Diffuse Interstellar Gas in Spirals by Lyman Photons Escaping from H II Regions
The existence of an extended component of diffuse ionized gas (DIG) is a well-known property of spiral galaxies. The integrated ensuremath {{H}alpha }...
We carried out a photometric analysis of a sample of early-type galaxies in Abell~1689 at z = 0.183, using HST/ACS archive images in the rest-frame V band. We...
Photometric and colorimetric studies of target objects using small and medium-size telescopes
We report on follow-up studies of transient events and objects, which have been conducted in recent years using ground-based optical observations. BVRI...
