This object is one of the closest stellar nurseries for both low and high - mass stars, at a distance of about 1350 light - years [1].

In addition, HESS has detected emissions from new classes of objects emitting very high energy gamma rays, such as stellar - mass black holes orbiting massive stars, and has characterized the absence of emissions from other classes of objects such as rapidly moving stars.

If the quality factor of the resonator is high, the mechanical energy will dissipate at a very low rate, and therefore the resonator will be extremely accurate at measuring or sensing objects thus enabling these systems to become very sensitive mass and force sensors, as well as exciting quantum systems.

It's providing the first look at these objects in focused, high - energy X-rays, helping to get better estimates of their masses and other characteristics.

With the mass of Jupiter, such an object would be under high pressure because of its own gravity.

It is many times higher than the Eddington limit, a basic physics guideline that sets an upper limit on the brightness that an object of a given mass should be able to achieve.

Furthermore, both of M22's black holes lie within just a couple of light - years of the cluster's center, a location consistent with high masses, because heavy objects should sink into the cluster's core.

To get powerful gravitational waves, you want objects each with a very big mass that are orbiting around each other at very high speed.

Different astrophysicists have employed the method for measurements to objects such as the Orion Nebula cluster, the Taurus star - forming region and high - mass star - forming regions throughout the Milky Way.

Images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope's Faint Object Spectrograph in 1996 offered some evidence to support earlier indications that either star could be a high - mass brown dwarf (Schultz et al, 1999).

Occasionally these objects look something like planetary nebulae, as in the case of the Crab Nebula, but they differ from the latter in three ways: (1) the total mass of their gas (they involve a larger mass, essentially all the mass of the exploding star), (2) their kinematics (they are expanding with higher velocities), and (3) their lifetimes (they last for a shorter time as visible nebulae).

Be stars are generally thought to feature unusually strong stellar winds, high surface temperatures, and significant attrition of stellar mass as the objects rotate at a curiously rapid rate.

Abstract: Based on more than four weeks of continuous high cadence photometric monitoring of several hundred members of the young cluster NGC 2264 with two space telescopes, NASA's Spitzer and the CNES CoRoT (Convection, Rotation, and planetary Transits), we provide high quality, multi-wavelength light curves for young stellar objects (YSOs) whose optical variability is dominated by short duration flux burs... ▽ More Based on more than four weeks of continuous high cadence photometric monitoring of several hundred members of the young cluster NGC 2264 with two space telescopes, NASA's Spitzer and the CNES CoRoT (Convection, Rotation, and planetary Transits), we provide high quality, multi-wavelength light curves for young stellar objects (YSOs) whose optical variability is dominated by short duration flux bursts, which we infer are due to enhanced mass accretion rates.

The new high - resolution simulations show that an oblique impact by an object with 10 percent the mass of the Earth can eject sufficient iron - free material into Earth - orbit to yield the Moon, while also leaving the Earth with its final mass and correct initial rotation rate.

By re-observing the photometric transit, we attempt to determine the transit parameters to high precision, and, by spectroscopic observations, to estimate the properties of the host star and determine the mass of the transiting object by means of radial - velocity measurements.

Engaging a muscle from its most optimal position and modulating the speed of contraction will result in the highest yield of actin - myosin cross bridges for contractile purposes, being less dependent on the mass of the object.

Working with images, objects and ideas from everywhere and anywhere — from mass culture to private life, from high - end philosophy to the diurnal routines of her feline companions — Ross - Ho sorts her gleanings in a studio world where improvisation and elaboration rule the day (and night).

Leirner creates her work out of discarded or scavenged mass - produced objects and materials, ranging from obsolete airline ashtrays to devalued currency; used stationery, envelopes, and mailers, to used shopping bags from museum stores and high - end airport boutiques; professional business cards; and all of the left - over components from multiple empty cigarette packs.

Curator Elizabeth Armstrong surveyed the vintage habitat of the forgotten Modernist scholar — his art and books; his high - tech - at - the - time Underwood Model 150 Typewriter, Polaroid Land Camera, and Graflex filmstrip projector; his clock radio and the other streamlined, mass - produced objects wearing their Deco heritage proudly; his ashtray overflowing with cigarette butts.

However, his high school fascination with mass media, film and other moving images have led Longo's career towards making photographs and 3D objects often based on film and television images.

If when three objects (A, B, C) are brought into thermal contact (a) heat flows from object A to object B, and heat flows from object B to object C, then object A is at a higher temperature than object B, and object B is at a higher temperature than object C, independent of the size, mass, heat capacity, etc. of the objects.
