We present radial velocities of the M8V-type, very low-mass star vB 10 obtained at four different epochs between 2001 and 2008. We use high-resolution (R ~ 20...
Infrared Signatures of the Inner Spiral Arms and Bar
Star counts from the Two-Micron Galactic Survey are used to determine the nature of peaks for 350> 1> 150 in the Galactic plane in the 2- m surface-brightness...
Infrared sources in the compact H II region G45.5 plus 0.1
Infrared photometric observations (1.25-10 microns) of the compact H II region G45.5 plus 0.1 are reported. Three new sources, which appear pointlike in nature...
Infrared Space Observatory Investigates the Nature of Extremely Red Hard X-Ray Sources Responsible for the X-Ray Background
We analyze very deep X-ray and mid-IR surveys in common areas of the Lockman Hole and the Hubble Deep Field-North (HDF-N) to study the sources of the X-ray...
Infrared Space Observatory Observations of IRAS 16594-4656: A New Proto-Planetary Nebula with a Strong 21 Micron Dust Feature
Based on ISO short-wavelength spectrograph (SWS)+long-wavelength spectrograph (LWS) observations, IRAS 16594-4656 is identified as a new member of the rare...
Infrared Spectral Fingerprint of Neutral and Charged Endo- and Exohedral Metallofullerenes
Small metal-containing molecules have been detected and recognized as one of the hybrid species that are efficiently formed in space, especially in the...
We present medium-resolution ( /A 500) absolute spectrophotometry of 15 bright and cool (N-type) carbon stars. The observations were made with a cooled grating...
Infrared spectroscopy and integrated molar absorptivity of C60 and C70 fullerenes at extreme temperatures
The detection of C60 and C70 fullerenes in young planetary nebulae and in reflection nebulae suggests that these molecules are more common in certain...
Infrared spectroscopy of fullerene C60/anthracene adducts
Recent Spitzer Space Telescope observations of several astrophysical environments such as planetary nebulae, reflection nebulae and R Coronae Borealis stars...
