Extractions: The Department of Astrophysics and Optics is part of the School of Physics at UNSW. It conducts both research and teaching in Astrophysics. It is one of the most active research groups in Australia. Research specialties include cosmology, large-scale structure in the Universe, star formation and the interstellar medium. In addition there is a strong instrumentation group, and the Department runs astronomical facilities in Antarctica and at Siding Spring Observatory, specialising in infrared and millimetre astronomy. Teaching is conducted at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. Vice Chancellor's and Newsouth Global Post Doctoral Research Fellowships The University is offering a number of Post-Doctoral Research Fellowships to attract outstanding post-doctoral scholars to conduct full time research at the University in any of its disciplines. Applications Close: Friday 14th October 2005 Upcoming Symposia and Talks Astrolunch Every Wednesday the Dept of Astrophysics meets to discuss their current research results - everyone is welcome!

Department of Astrophysics You are here: Home The Department of Astrophysics is located in the Rose Center for Earth and Space on the grounds of the American Museum of Natural History. The newest academic research department in the Museum, the department was formed to support the astronomy education activities of the Museum and to conduct research into astronomy and astrophysics. Additionally, the department provides scientific support for the exhibits of the Rose Center and Hayden Planetarium. Spotlight archive Planetary Nebula Mz3 click on the above image to view the full image. Sometimes stars are surrounded by beautiful gaseous nebulae. These can often be seen even with smaller telescopes and have become a favorite of amateur astronomers. Today, we believe that planetary nebulae are the ejected outer layers of aging middle-weight stars and that our Sun will, in about four and a half billion years, eject its own planetary nebula. Planetary nebulae come in many shapes but most of them are not spherical. Many theories try and explain why a spherical star might blow a non-spherical nebula. One of these theories says that a companion orbiting the aging star helped shape the nebula. Companions to the central stars of planetary nebulae, however, are relatively rare.
Astrophysics - Rensselaer Research in the astrophysics group includes astrobiology and the chemistry The astrophysics group makes use of groundbased telescopes located at world http://www.rpi.edu/dept/phys/Astro/astro.html
Extractions: ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS Research Activities Research in the astrophysics group includes astrobiology and the chemistry of the interstellar medium, as well as many areas of galactic and extragalactic astronomy. Research in astrobiology and interstellar chemistry describes the evolution of interstellar clouds into new solar systems . Current interest focuses on spectroscopic detection of organic molecules in interstellar dust and gas, and their contribution to the organic inventory of protoplanetary disks. Theoretical projects include simulations of protostellar collapse, multifluid magnetohydrodynamic shock waves, and shock chemistry. Research in galactic and extragalactic astronomy includes the structure and formation of the galactic halo, metallicity gradients in the galactic thick disk, properties of stars with strong Balmer absorption, optical properties of quasars, and astronomical data mining. The astrophysics group makes use of ground-based telescopes located at world class observing sites in Hawaii, Australia, Chile, and South Africa. We also have access to data from major satellite facilities, including the Hubble Space Telescope, Chandra, and the Infrared Space Observatory; and large ground-based astronomy projects, including the

Extractions: The Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is a NASA-funded project which maintains four bibliographic databases containing more than 4.4 million records: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Instrumentation, Physics and Geophysics, and preprints in Astronomy. The main body of data in the ADS consists of bibliographic records, which are searchable through our Abstract Service query forms , and full-text scans of much of the astronomical literature which can be browsed though our Browse interface . Integrated in its databases, the ADS provides access and pointers to a wealth of external resources, including electronic articles, data catalogs and archives. We currently have links to over 4.4 million records maintained by our collaborators.
