    A Polarized Accretion Disk Flare in OJ:287
    A very rapid swing in the polarization position angle (PA) in the optical region was observed in blazar OJ 287 during one night of our five nights UBVRI photopolarimetric monitoring in January 1991 with the Nordic Optical Telescope. During this PA swing the flux increased ~40% in five hours, while the polarization level was very stable and quite

    A 6.5-day periodicity in the recurrent nova V404 Cygni implying the presence of a black hole
    Two years after its outburst in 1989, the William Herschel Telescope has been used to find absorption features in V404 Cyg characteristic of a late G or early K star with a radial velocity curve of amplitude 211 +/- 4 km/s and period 6.473 +/- 0.001 days. The deduced mass function of 6.26 +/- 0.31 solar masses is a firm lower limit to the mass of

  • Refereed
    The radio source and bipolar nebulosity in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3516
    Results of radio continuum and optical emission-line observations of the type 1 Seyfert galaxy NGC 3516 are presented. The radio maps reveal an elongated one-sided curved structure, which comprises a series of small-scale 'blobs' and extends up to 4 kpc from the nucleus. This radio structure is aligned and cospatial with one side of the double

    Star formation in stellar systems
    The present volume on stellar formation discusses basic physical principles relevant to such processes, regions of recent star formation, galaxy formation and evolution, and the history of star formation in galaxies. Also discussed are OB associations and superassociations, triggered star formations, violent star formation in merging galaxies, and
