We present the results of our new low-resolution spectroscopic observations of the young compact planetary nebula Hb 12 performed in 2011-2020 with SAI MSU telescopes. We have measured the intensities of more than 50 nebular emission lines…

We present near-infrared long-slit spectra of eight optically-dim X-ray sources obtained with ISAAC on the Very Large Telescope. Six of the sources have hard X-ray emission with a significant fraction of the counts emerging above 2 keV. All…

We report the Chandra detection of hard X-ray emission from the Welch ring in W49A, an organized structure of ultra-compact (UC) HII regions containing a dozen nascent early-type stars. Two UC HII regions are associated with hard X-ray…

We report the detection of nebular emission lines in the optical and mid-infrared spectra of IRAS 17347-3139, a heavily obscured OH/IR star which may be rapidly evolving from the AGB to the PN stage. The presence of emission lines is…

On the basis of sub-arcsecond optical imaging we resolve and study the core components of the LMC OB association LH 39. The central star of the association, the rare transition object R84, is also investigated using CASPEC echelle…

We have obtained quasi-simultaneous ultraviolet-optical spectra for 22 out of 23 quasars in the complete PG-X-ray sample with redshift, z<0.4, and M_B<-23. The spectra cover rest-frame wavelengths from at least Lyman-alpha to H-alpha. Here…

In the first three papers of this series, about 200 objects in Camelopardalis and the nearby areas of Cassiopeia, Perseus and Auriga were suspected of being pre-main-sequence stars in different stages of evolution. To confirm the…

High-resolution optical spectra (UES/WHT) of the extreme metal-poor post-AGB star HR4049 were obtained at four different orbital phases. The spectra cover the wavelength region from 3650ang to 10850ang at a resolution of R=5.2x10^4. These…

Here, we present 6-9 um spectra of a sample of RNe, HII regions, YSOs, evolved stars and galaxies that show strong unidentified infrared bands, obtained with the ISO-SWS. The IR emission features show pronounced variations. 1) The 6.2 um…

We report extensive new photometry and spectroscopy of the highly variable young stellar object PTF 10nvg including optical and near-infrared time series data as well as mid-infrared and millimeter data. Following the previously reported…

We observed Circinus X-1 twice during a newly reached low-flux phase near zero orbital phase using the High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) onboard Chandra. In both observations the source did not show the P Cygni lines we…

On 2003 September 17 INTEGRAL discovered a bright transient source 3 degrees from the Galactic Center, IGR J17544-2619. The field containing the transient was observed by XMM-Newton on 2003 March 17 and September 11 and 17. A bright source,…

FS CMa type stars are a group of Galactic objects with the B[e] phenomenon. They exhibit strong emission-line spectra and infrared excesses, which are most likely due to recently formed circumstellar dust. The group content and…

The hot interstellar medium is an important part of the Galactic ecosystem and can be effectively characterized through X-ray absorption line spectroscopy. However, in a study of the hot medium using the accreting neutron star X-ray binary,…

Deep hard X-ray and near infrared observations of a type-2 radio-quiet QSO candidate at z=0.9, AXJ08494+4454, are reported. The 0.5-10keV Chandra X-ray Observatory spectrum of AXJ08494+4454 is hard, and is explained well with a power-law…

An object discovered during an infrared survey of the field near the quasar B2 0149+33 has an emission line at 2.25$\mu$m that we interpret as H$\alpha$ at a redshift of 2.43. The K-band image shows two compact components 10 kpc apart…

The first complete far-infrared spectrum (43-197um) of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 as observed with the LWS onboard ISO is reported. In addition to the expected ionic fine structure emission lines, the OH rotational lines at 79, 119 and…

(Abridged) We studied the brightness and spectral evolution of the young eruptive star V1647 Ori during its recent outburst in the period 2004 February - 2006 Sep. We performed a photometric follow-up in the bands V, R_C, I_C, J, H, K_s as…

We present a brief summary of observations of the transiting extrasolar planet, HD 209458 b, designed to detect the secondary eclipse. We employ the method of `occultation spectroscopy', which searches in combined light (star and planet)…

The optical star in the T Tauri triple system is the prototype of young sun-like stars in our galaxy. This complex and dynamic system has evidence for misaligned disks and outflows, and molecular material in a circumbinary ring that…
