We present NOT optical observations of a clump (l = 127.9435 deg, b = +1.8298 deg), embedded in an extended, irregularly shaped, diffuse optical nebula. This condensation shows an emission-line spectrum typical of classic HII regions.…
We present the discovery of expanding spherical shells around low to intermediate-mass young stars in the Orion A giant molecular cloud using observations of $^{12}$CO (1-0) and $^{13}$CO (1-0) from the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45-meter…
Data from the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey reveal an abundance of HI shells and arcs in the disk of our galaxy. While their shape is suggestive of stellar winds or supernovae influence, very few of these structures have been examined in…
The properties of gas in the halos of galaxies constrain global models of the interstellar medium. Kinematical information is of particular interest since it is a clue to the origin of the gas. Until now mostly massive galaxies have been…
The morpho-kinematics of the circumstellar envelope of oxygen-rich AGB star R Leonis is probed using ALMA (Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) observations of the emission of molecular lines, including in particular CO(2-1) and…
Context. Outflows powered by the injection of kinetic energy from massive stars can strongly affect the chemical evolution of galaxies, in particular of dwarf galaxies, as their lower gravitational potentials enhance the chance of a…
We present the initial results of multi-epoch VLBI observations of the 22 GHz H2O masers in the Orion KL region with VERA (VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry). With the VERA dual-beam receiving system, we have carried out…
We report on a Chandra line spectrum observation of the O supergiant, Zeta Orionis (O9.7 Ib). A 73.4 ks HETGS observation shows a wide range of ionization stages and line strengths over the wavelength range of 5 to 26 A. The observed…
Circumstellar shells around AGB stars are built over long periods of time that may reach several million years. They may therefore be extended over large sizes (~1 pc, possibly more), and different complementary tracers are needed to…
A study of [C II] 158 micron and HI 21-cm spectroscopic images plus high velocity resolution optical and ultraviolet spectra has shown the structure of the Orion Nebula to be different from that found from the study of those data…
The HR Del nova remnant was observed with the IFU-GMOS at Gemini North. The spatially resolved spectral data cube was used in the kinematic, morphological and abundance analysis of the ejecta. The line maps show a very clumpy shell with two…
Aims. The carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star TX Piscium (TX Psc) has been observed multiple times during multiple epochs and at different wavelengths and resolutions, showing a complex molecular CO line profile and a ring-like…
The HH 1/2 system has been observed with the two spectrometers on board the Infrared Space Observatory. Diffuse [CII] 158um emission indicate the presence of a Photo-Dissociation Region (PDR) which is only in part due to the external Far-UV…
Stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) lose considerable amounts of matter through their dust-driven stellar winds. A number of such sources have been imaged by Herschel/PACS, revealing a diverse sample of different morphological types.…
We obtained VLA 21-cm observations of the galaxy ESO 481-G017 to determine the environment and trigger of remote star formation traced by a HII region found 43 kpc from the galaxy (in projection). ESO 481-G017 is an early type spiral galaxy…
Within the last 10 years, strong, narrow Na I absorption has appeared at v_sun ~ -38 km/s toward the halo star HD 219188; that absorption has continued to strengthen, by a factor 2-3, over the past three years. The line of sight appears to…
Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) in Guizhou, China, we detect the 21cm neutral atomic hydrogen absorption in the young planetary nebula IC 4997. The absorption arises from a shell also associated with…
Studies of the abundances of deuterium in different astrophysical sites are of fundamental importance to answering the question about how much deuterium was produced during big bang nucleosynthesis and what fraction of it was destroyed…
We present mid-infrared photometry of the Orion Bar obtained with FORCAST aboard SOFIA at 6.4, 6.6, 7.7, 19.7, 31.5 and 37.1 \um. By complementing this observations with archival FORCAST and \emph{Herschel}/PACS images we are able to…
Spectral monitoring of the yellow hypergiant $\rho$ Cas with the by 6-m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory with a spectral resolution of R$\ge$60000 has led to the detection of new features in the kinematic state of its…
