  • Young LMC star clusters as a test for stellar evolutionary models. 
    Subramaniam, A; Sagar, R (The European Southern Observatory, 1995-05)
    We compare the observed colour-magnitude diagrams (CMD) and the main sequence luminosity functions (LFs) of four Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) star clusters namely, NGC 1711, NGC 2004, NGC 2164 and NGC 2214 with the synthetic ...
  • Detection of optical pulsations from RX J0558.0+5353 
    Ashoka, B. N; Marar, T. M. K; Seetha, S; Kasturirangan, K; Bhattacharyya, J. C (The European Southern Observatory, 1995-05)
    We report the detection of optical pulsations at a period of 272.785+-0.003s from the newly discovered intermediate polar RX J0558.0+5353. This period nearly coincides with the X-ray period reported by Haberl et al. (1994). ...
  • Effects of aberration and advection on line formation 
    Peraiah, A (University of Chicago Press, 1991-10)
    The effects of inclusion of the aberration and advection terms in the equation of the line transfer are studied. Spherical shells whose ratios of outer (B) to inner (A) radii (B/A) are 2, 5, and 10 and with line-center ...
  • Thermal self-energies at zero momentum 
    Nieves, Jose. F; Palash, B. Pal (The American Physical Society, 1995-05)
    In general the zero momentum limit of thermal self-energies calculated in perturbation theory depends on the order in which the time and the space components of the momentum are taken to zero. We show that this is an ...
  • Strong-CP question in SU(3)c×SU(3)L×U(1)N models 
    Palash, B. Pal (The American Physical Society, 1995-08)
    We analyze two recent models based on the gauge group SU(3)c×SU(3)L×U(1)N where each generation is not anomaly-free but the anomaly cancels when three generations are taken into account. We show that the most general Yukawa ...
  • VLA observations of solar active regions at 6 and 20 CM 
    Alissandrakis, C. E; Kundu, M. R; Shevgaonkar, R. K (The European Southern Observatory, 1991-11)
    High-resolution observations are presented of two active regions at 6 and 20 cm over a period of 5 days, together with H-alpha and photospheric magnetic fields. The large-scale emission at 20 cm is associated with the ...
  • Study of faint young open clusters as tracers of spiral features in our Galaxy 
    Babu, G. S. D (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1991-09)
    Continuing the study of faint young open clusters as tracers of spiral features in the Galaxy, photoelectric and photographic photometry of 39 stars was done in the field of the faint open cluster NGC 2236 = OCl 501 in the ...
  • X-ray spectrum of the radio-loud quasar PKS 1217 + 023 
    Ghosh, K. K; Soundararajaperumal, S (EDP Sciences, 1991-12)
    A study of the X-ray (0.1-10 keV) spectrum from the radio-loud quasar, PKS 1217 + 023 is presented. This quasar was observed with Exosat on two epochs in January 29 and May 14, 1984. The data were obtained from the Exosat ...
  • Planetary nebulae - Origin and evolution 
    Mallik, D. C. V (Astronomical Society of Australia, 1991)
    The review describes some of the progress made in observations and their interpretation, particularly in the context of the evolution of the nebulae and the central stars. It includes a discussion on the improved determinations ...
  • EXOSAT observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 
    Ghosh, K. K; Soundararajaperumal, S (University of Chicago press, 1991-12)
    This study presents results of the X-ray spectra (0.1-10 keV) of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3516 on the basis of Exosat observations obtained on four epochs between 1985/308 and 1985/340. The soft X-ray (0.2-2 keV) flux of ...
  • H-alpha variability in the quiescent spectrum of the recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis 
    Anupama, G. C; Prabhu, T. P (Blackwell Publishing, 1991-12)
    The emission lines in the quiescent spectrum of the recurrent nova T Coronae Borealis are variable. Optical spectra recorded during the years 1985-90 show one full cycle of high and low states. After removing the slow ...
  • On the tidal disruption of a spherical galaxy 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Kochhar, R. K (Blackwell Publishing, 1991-12)
    The disruption of a satellite galaxy as it undergoes collision with a massive perturber is investigated by numerical simulations. The models are restricted by a constant pericentric distance. The disruption of the satellite ...
  • Ultraviolet variability of HD 62001 - The central star of the missing nebula V-V 1-7 
    Kameswara Rao, N; Gilra, D. P (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1983-03)
    IUE observations of HD 62001 do not confirm the ultraviolet variability of 0.15 mag seen from the ANS observations. These intriguing variations in ANS observations seem to be caused by a nearby (∼ 70 arcsec away) B star ...
  • The Influence of a Vertical Magnetic Field on Oscillations in an Isothermal Stratified Atmosphere. II. 
    Banerjee, D; Hasan, S. S; Christensen-Dalsgaard, J (University of Chicago Press, 1995-10)
    We examine the effect of a uniform vertical magnetic field on the modes of an isothermal stratified atmosphere. The present investigation is a continuation of earlier work by Hasan & Christensen-Dalsgaard in which this ...
  • Torsion, minimum time, string tension and its physical implications in cosmology 
    de Sabbata, Venzo; Sivaram, C (Springer, 1992-01)
    By introducing torsion in general relativity - that is physically considering the effect of the spin and linking the torsion to defects in the space-time topology - a minimum unit of time can be obtained. In this context ...
  • The X-ray spectrum of the superluminal quasar 1928 + 73 
    Ghosh, K. K; Soundararajaperumal, S (Blackwell Publishing, 1992-02)
    Exosat observations (0.1-10 keV) of the radio-loud quasar 1928 + 73, which displays superluminal motion, were made at four epochs between 1983/283 and 1984/009, and spectra of this source are obtained from the Exosat ...
  • Distribution of stars perpendicular to the plane of the Galaxy. II. 
    Chatterjee, S (EDP Sciences, 1995-06)
    We present here rigourous analytical solutions of the Boltzmann-Poisson equations concerning the distribution of stars perpendicular to the galactic plane. The number density of stars at the galactic disk is assumed to ...
  • On the eruption of prominences and disappearance of quiescent filaments 
    Singh, J; Gupta, S. S (Springer, 1995-05)
    We suggest the following heuristic model for the evolution of a quiescent filament. The middle part of the filament rises due to heating, while its ends remain anchored in the chromosphere; and a kink appears in the H alpha ...
  • Fading and variations in the spectrum of the central star of the very young planetary nebula SAO 244567 (Hen 1357). 
    Parthasarathy, M; Garcia-Lario, P; de Martino, D; Pottasch, S. R; Kilkenny, D; Martinez, P; Sahu, K. C; Reddy, B. E; Sewell, B. T (EDP Sciences, 1995-08)
    The optical spectrum of SAO 244567 obtained in 1971 shows that it was a post-AGB B1 or B2 supergiant at that time. It has turned into a planetary nebula (PN ) within the last 20 years. The IUE ultraviolet spectra obtained ...
  • BV photometry and Hα spectroscopy of the RS Canum Venaticorum binary UX Arietis. 
    Raveendran, A. V; Mohin, S (EDP Sciences, 1995-09)
    We present differential BV photometry of UX Ari obtained on 76 nights during 1989-94 and Hα spectroscopy obtained on 14 nights during the 1990-91 observing season. The migration of the phase of light minimum indicates a ...
