The galaxy group Klemola 13 is composed of at least seven independent members including the starburst galaxy Tol 9. Our analysis using optical/NIR and Ha imaging together with optical spectroscopy suggests that it is interacting with some members of the group. We propose H I observations of Klemola 13 in order to map the distribution and kinematics

Context: .Satellite accretion events have been invoked for mimicking the internal secular evolutionary processes of bulge growth. However, N-body simulations of satellite accretions have paid little attention to the evolution of bulge photometric parameters, to the processes driving this evolution, and to the consistency of this evolution with

Context: .Shells in Elliptical Galaxies are faint, sharp-edged features, believed to provide evidence of a recent (˜ 0.5 - 2 × 109 years ago) merger event. We analyse the Globular Cluster (GC) systems of six shell elliptical galaxies, to examine the effects of mergers upon the GC formation history. Aims: .We examine the colour distributions, and

Aims.We study fast magnetohydrodynamic waves in a system of two coronal loops modeled as smoothed, dense plasma slabs in a uniform magnetic field. This allows us to analyse in a simple configuration the collective behaviour of the structure due to the interaction between the slabs. Methods: .We first calculate the normal modes of the system and

The observations were made on 2003 March 29, 30 and 31 with UVES, at the VLT Kueyen Telescope in Cerro Paranal Observatory (Chile). We used the standard settings in both the red and blue arms of the spectrograph, covering the spectral region from 3100 to 10400{AA}. (1 data file).

Time series of high-resolution images of the complex ac-tive region NOAA 10786 are studied. The observations were performed in G-band (430.5 nm) and in the nearby continuum (463.3 nm), on July 9, 2005 at the Swedish 1-meter Solar Telecope (SST) in La Palma. Granular proper motions in the surroundings of the sunspots have been quantified. A large
