As part of our ongoing Chandra/HST M31 transient program we report on two active sources recently detected in two Chandra ACIS observations. Source 1 We present two 5ks ACIS-I observations of the ongoing outburst of the M31 transient source CXOM31 J004217.0+411508 (r3-46). Using an absorbed powerlaw model with photon index = 1.7 and nH = 6.6e20

We report the discovery of gas streaming motions along nuclear spiral arms toward the LINER nucleus of the galaxy NGC 6951. The observations, obtained using the GMOS integral field spectrograph on the Gemini North telescope, yielded maps of the flux distributions and gas kinematics in the Hα, [N II] λ6584, and [S II] λλ6717, 6731 emission lines of

In this paper, we present one method of numeric analysis for the star test with MatLab (ANPEM), applied to reflecting telescope. ANPEM finds the difference between centers of the images of the annulus obtained with a Newtonian telescope and a Ritchey Chretiene telescope with 14 and 211 cm of diameter respectively. ANPEM allows to identify

We present numerical simulations of magnetoacoustic wave propagation from the photosphere to the low chromosphere in a magnetic sunspot-like structure. A thick flux tube, with dimensions typical of a small sunspot, is perturbed by a vertical or horizontal velocity pulse at the photospheric level. The type of mode generated by the pulse depends on

We present comparison of numerical simulation results of MHD wave propagation in two different magnitostatic models of sunspots refferred to as "deep" and "shallow" models. The "deep" model has convex shape of magnetic field lines near the photosphere and non-zero horizorntal perturbations of the sound speed up to the bottom of the model (7.5 Mm)
