the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame
this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...
15 صفحه اولStructural Parameters of the M87 Globular Clusters
We derive structural parameters for ∼ 2000 globular clusters in the giant Virgo elliptical M87 using extremely deep Hubble Space Telescope images in F606W (V) and F814W (I) taken with the ACS/WFC. The cluster scale sizes (half-light radii rh) and ellipticities are determined from PSF-convolved Kingmodel profile fitting. We find that the rh distribution closely resembles the inner Milky Way clus...
متن کاملThe Fundamental Plane of Gamma-ray Globular Clusters
We have investigated the properties of a group of γ-ray emitting globular clusters (GCs) which have recently been uncovered in our Galaxy. By correlating the observed γ-ray luminosities Lγ with various cluster properties, we probe the origin of the high energy photons from these GCs. We report Lγ is positively correlated with the encounter rate Γc and the metalicity [Fe/H] which place an intima...
متن کاملStructural Parameters for Globular Clusters in NGC 5128. II: HST/ACS Imaging and New Clusters
We report the first results from an imaging program with the ACS camera on HST designed to measure the structural characteristics of a wide range of globular clusters in NGC 5128, the nearest giant elliptical galaxy. From 12 ACS/WFC fields, we have measured a total of 62 previously known globular clusters and have discovered 69 new high-probability cluster candidates not found in any previous
متن کاملNewly Discovered Globular Clusters in the Outer Halo of M31
We present nine newly discovered globular clusters in the outer halo of M31, found by a semi-automated procedure from an INT Wide Field Camera survey of the region. The sample includes a candidate at the largest known projected galactocentric radius yet from M31.
