Recent observations of the rotation curve of M31 show a rise of the outer part that can not be understood in terms of standard dark matter models or perturbations of the galactic disc by M31's satellites. Here, we propose an explanation of…
We present mid-IR images of a 15'x15' field in the south-west part of the Andromeda galaxy M 31 obtained with the ISOCAM camera on board ISO. We also present a 20" resolution far-UV image of a larger field at 200 nm obtained with the…
In a recent analysis of the radio emission from the planetary nebula A30, Dgani, Evans & White (1998) claim that the emission, located in the inner region, is probably dominated by nonthermal emission. We propose a model to explain this. We…
We examine the magnetic field in NGC 4214, a nearby irregular galaxy, using multi-wavelength radio continuum polarization data from the Very Large Array. We find that the global radio continuum spectrum shows signs that free-free absorption…
We use CO and H alpha velocity fields to study the gas kinematics in the spiral arms and interarms of M51 (NGC 5194), and fit the 2D velocity field to estimate the radial and tangential velocity components as a function of spiral phase (arm…
We present a study of the magnetic field properties of NGC 4038/9 (the `Antennae' galaxies), the closest example of a late stage merger of two spiral galaxies. Wideband polarimetric observations were performed using the Karl G. Jansky Very…
In this paper, we present photometry of 53 globular clusters (GCs) in the M31 outer halo, including the {\sl GALEX} FUV and NUV, SDSS $ugriz$, 15 intermediate-band filters of BATC, and 2MASS $JHK_{\rm s}$ bands. By comparing the multicolour…
We aim to detect low-frequency radio emission from exoplanetary systems, which can provide insights into planetary magnetic fields, star-planet interactions, stellar activity, and exo-space weather. The HD 189733 system, hosting a…
We have used Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations to construct a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) for the bulge of M31 at a location ~1.6 kpc from the galaxy's center. Using scaled-solar abundance theoretical red…
In order to analyze the importance of the star formation rate in generating and amplifying magnetic fields in the interstellar medium we obtained deep total power and polarization maps at 4.85 GHz of three late type spiral galaxies NGC4236,…
Magnetic fields are essential to fully understand the interstellar medium (ISM) and its role in the disk-halo interface of galaxies is still poorly understood. Star formation is known to expel hot gas vertically into the halo and these…
We present multi-frequency VLA observations of the two radio galaxies 3C 129 and 3C 129.1 embedded in a luminous X-ray cluster. These radio observations reveal a substantial difference in the Faraday Rotation Measures (RMs) toward 3C 129.1…
We present a study of the X-ray properties of the nearby face-on Scd spiral galaxy M101 based on recent XMM-Newton observations. In this third and final paper in the present series, we focus on the spatial and spectral properties of the…
Effective radial migration and mixing of orbits throughout the stellar disk has been definitively established in the Milky Way, but not in any other galaxy. We show how such radial mixing can be measured (or strongly constrained) in M31…
Reconnection heating has been considered as a potential source of the heating of the interstellar medium. In some galaxies, significant polarised radio emission has been found between the spiral arms. This emission has a form of `magnetic…
We observed polarization of the SiO rotational transitions from Orion Source I (SrcI) to probe the magnetic field in bipolar outflows from this high mass protostar. Both 43 GHz $J$=1-0 and 86 GHz $J$=2-1 lines were mapped with $\sim$20 AU…
Magnetic fields are a good tracer for gas compression by shock waves, which can be caused by interaction of star-formation driven outflows from individual star formation sites as described in the chimney model. We study the magnetic field…
We study the synchrotron radio emission from extra-planar regions of star forming galaxies. We use ideal magneto-hydrodynamical (MHD) simulations of a rotating Milky Way-type disk galaxy with distributed star formation sites for three star…
The Radio Arc is one of the brightest systems of non-thermal filaments (NTFs) in the Galactic Center, located near several prominent HII regions (Sickle and Pistol) and the Quintuplet stellar cluster. We present observations of the Arc NTFs…
