A new acousto-optic radio spectrometer has observed the 1 - 2 GHz radio emission of solar flares with unprecedented sensitivity. The number of detected decimeter type III bursts is greatly enhanced compared to observations by conventional…
We present new, low-frequency images of the powerful FR I radio galaxy Hydra A (3C 218). Images were made with the Very Large Array (VLA) at frequencies of 1415, 330, and 74 MHz, with resolutions on the order of 20". The morphology of the…
The investigation of plasma motions in the solar chromosphere is crucial for understanding the transport of mechanical energy from the interior of the Sun to the outer atmosphere and into interplanetary space. We report the finding of…
We present results from the most comprehensive radio monitoring campaign towards the closest star to our Sun, Proxima Centauri. We report 1.1 to 3.1 GHz observations with the Australian Telescope Compact Array over 18 consecutive days in…
Direct imaging of the HR8799 system was a major achievement in the study of exoplanets. HR8799 is a $\gamma$\,Doradus variable and asteroseismology can provide an independent constraint on the inclination. Using 650 high signal-to-noise,…
We present observations of persistent oscillations of some bright features in the upper-chromosphere/transition-region above sunspots taken by IRIS SJ 1400 {\AA} and upward propagating quasi-periodic disturbances along coronal loops rooted…
Results of simultaneous {\it INTEGRAL} and optical observations of galactic microquasar SS433 in May 2003 are presented. The analysis of the X-ray and optical eclipse duration and hard X-ray spectra obtained by {\it INTEGRAL} together with…
We report quantitative analysis of the radial gradient of solar angular velocity at depths down to about 15 Mm below the solar surface for latitudes up to 75 degree using the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) observations of surface gravity…
We present observations of H_2 fluorescence at wavelengths between 1000 and 1200 A from the bright reflection nebula IC 63. Observations were performed with the Berkeley spectrograph on the ORFEUS-SPAS II mission. To the best of our…
Spectropolarimetric results of Fraunhofer lines between 516.3nm and 532.6nm are presented in local upper solar chromosphere, transition zone and inner corona below a height of about 0.04 solar radius above the solar limb. The data were…
New high resolution 6 cm observations have been made on Cepheus A using MERLIN, and combined with new VLA observations at 3.7 cm. Angular resolution with the latter was 200 mas, and with MERLIN was 60 mas, except for isolated unresolved…
Results of two years of continuous monitoring of flux density variations at 8.3 and 2.3 GHz of the Galactic Center super-massive black hole candidate Sgr A* are reported. The average RMS modulation indices are 6% and 2.5% at 8.3 & 2.3 GHz…
We consider a first important parameter of spicules as observed above the solar visible limb: their apparent diameter as a function of the height above the limb which determines their aspect ratio and leads to the discussion of their…
Small imines containing up to three carbon atoms are present in the interstellar medium. As alkynyl compounds are abundant in this medium, propargylimine thus represents a promising candidate for a new interstellar detection. The goal of…
The new transient X-ray pulsar XTE J0111.2-7317 was observed with Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics (ASCA) on 1998 November 18, a few days after its discovery with the Proportional Counter Array onboard the Rossi X-ray…
We present radio and infrared observations of 4 hyper-compact HII regions and 4 ultra-compact HII regions in the southern Galactic plane. These objects were selected from a blind survey for UCHII regions using data from two new radio…
Electron density diagnostics based on a line intensity ratio of Si X are applied to the X-ray spectra of Procyon, $\alpha$ Cen A$&$B, Capella and $\epsilon$ Eri measured with the Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (LETGS) combined…
