We present a study of HII regions in M51 using the Hubble Space Telescope ACS images taken as part of the Hubble Heritage Program. We have catalogued about 19,600 HII regions in M51 with Ha luminosity in the range of L = 10^{35.5} erg/s to…
Sensitive spectral observations made in two frequency bands near 6.0 and 17.6 GHz are described for Orion and W51. Using frequency switching we were able to achieve a dynamic range in excess of 10,000 without fitting sinusoidal or…
Pictor A is a $\gamma$-ray emitting radio galaxy and has a bright hotspot called WHS, located $\sim$4 arcmin away from the nucleus. In this work, we present an analysis of its 16-year Fermi-LAT data and report the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry…
A three dimensional (3D) tomographic reconstruction of the local differential emission measure (LDEM) of the global solar corona during the whole heliosphere interval (WHI, Carrington rotation CR-2068) is presented, based on STEREO/EUVI…
We present consistent modelling of line and continuum IR spectra in the region close to the Galactic center. The models account for the coupled effect of shocks and photoionization from an external source. The results show that the shock…
We present imaging at 19, 25, 31, and 37 {\mu}m of the compact HII region complex G-0.02-0.07 located 6 pc in projection from the center of the Galaxy obtained with SOFIA using FORCAST. G-0.02-0.07 contains three compact HII regions (A, B,…
