    The CCD magnitudes in Johnson UBV and Cousins RI photometric passbands for the afterglow of the long duration GRB 030226 are presented. Upper limits of a few mJy to millimeter wave emission at the location of optical are ...
  • Effect of mass segregation on mass function of young open clusters 
    Pandey, A. K; Mahra, H. S; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 1992)
    The effect of mass segregation on cluster mass function has been studied and it is found that the slope of the mass function is steeper in the outer part of the open clusters. Since derived dynamical relaxation time is ...
  • Emission from GRBs and their afterglows : Indian observations 
    Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2001)
    The study of Gamma-ray bursts, electromagnetically the most luminous events in the Universe though only for a few seconds, was revolutionized in 1997 when the Italian-Dutch X-ray satellite BeppoSAX started providing the ...
  • Emission-line CCD imaging of three southern symbiotic stars 
    Bhatt, H. C; Sagar, R (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1991-06)
    Symbiotic stars that are strong radio sources and have cool dust emitting in the IR are expected to have extended emission nebulae around them. In order to search for such emission nebulae, CCD imaging of three symbiotic ...
