Hubble Space Telescope Ultraviolet Images of Five Circumnuclear Star-forming Rings

We present UV (∼ 2300 Å) images, obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Faint Object Camera, of the central 20 of five galaxies containing circumnuclear star-forming rings. The five galaxies are from a well-defined Based on observations with the Hubble Space Telescope, which is operated by AURA, Inc. under NASA contract NAS 5-26555

An Efficient Strategy to Select Targets for Gas-dynamical Measurements of Black Hole Masses Using the Hubble Space Telescope1

Gas-dynamical studies using the Hubble Space Telescope are an integral component for future progress in the search for massive black holes in galactic nuclei. Here we present an extensive set of gas rotation curves obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph for the central regions of 23 disk galaxies. We find that the bulges of randomly selected, nearby spiral and S0 galaxies genera...

Pulsating red giant and supergiant stars in the Local Group dwarf galaxy Andromeda I

We have conducted an optical long-term monitoring survey of the majority of dwarf galaxies in the Local Group, with the Isaac Newton Telescope (INT), to identify the long period variable (LPV) stars. LPV stars vary on timescales of months to years, and reach the largest amplitudes of their brightness variations at optical wavelengths, due to the changing temperature. They trace stellar populati...

Ultraviolet Number Counts of Galaxies from Swift UV/Optical Telescope Deep Imaging of the Chandra Deep Field South

Deep Swift UV/Optical Telescope (UVOT) imaging of the Chandra Deep Field South is used to measure galaxy number counts in three near ultraviolet (NUV) filters (uvw2: 1928 Å, uvm2: 2246 Å, uvw1: 2600 Å) and the u band (3645 Å). UVOT observations cover the break in the slope of the NUV number counts with greater precision than the number counts by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Space Telescope ...

The dark side of star formation in the Antennae galaxies

We compare mid-infrared images of the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/39) from the Infrared Space Observatory, with optical images from the Hubble Space Telescope. The mid-infrared observations show that the most intense starburst in this colliding system of galaxies takes place in an off-nucleus region that is inconspicuous at optical wavelengths. The analyses of the mid-infrared spectra indicate ...
