    Do all bright elliptical galaxies have active nuclei?

    The evidence is noted that (1) a flux density limited complete sample of X-ray emitting BL Lac type sources is now available from Schwartz and Ku (1983), that...

    IRAS 17423-1755: A BQ() star with a variable velocity outflow

    Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS) 17423-1755 has been identified as a BQ() star. Its more remarkable observed features are large radial velocities, huge line...

    Large-amplitude Prominence Oscillations following Impact by a Coronal Jet

    Observational evidence shows that coronal jets can hit prominences and set them in motion. The impact leads to large-amplitude oscillations (LAOs) in the...

    On the propagation and structure of interstellar jets

    The propagation of interstellar jets is examined by means of numerical modeling. The jets result from the injection of an overpressured supersonic beam of gas...

    Supersonic turbulence in giant extragalactic HII regions

    I discuss in this paper the more likely physical mechanisms that could provide the energy input for the supersonic motions observed in giant extragalactic HII...
