Abstract:

Combining observations of multiple CO lines with radiative transfer modelling is a verypowerful tool to investigate the physical properties of the molecular gas in galaxies. Usingnew observations and literature data, we provide the most complete CO ladders ever generatedfor eight star-forming regions in the spiral arms and inter-arms of the spiral galaxyNGC 6946, with observations of the CO(1-0), CO(2-1), CO(3-2), CO(4-3), CO(6-5),13CO(1-0) and 13CO(2-1) transitions. For each region, we use the large velocity gradientassumption to derive beam-averaged molecular gas physical properties, namely the gas kinetictemperature (TK), H2 number volume density (n(H2)) and CO number column density(N(CO)). Two complementary approaches are used to compare the observations with themodel predictions: x2 minimization and likelihood. The physical conditions derived varygreatly from one region to the next: TK = 10-250 K, n(H2) = 102.3-107.0 cm-3 and N(CO) =1015.0-1019.3 cm-2. The spectral line energy distribution (SLED) in some of these extranuclearregions indicate a star formation activity that is more intense than that at the centre of ourown Milky Way. The molecular gas in regions with a large SLED turnover transition (Jmax > 4) is hot but tenuous with a high CO column density, while that in regions with a low SLEDturnover transition (Jmax ≤ 4) is cold but dense with a low CO column density. We finallydiscuss and find some correlations between the physical properties of the molecular gas ineach region and the presence of young stellar population indicators (supernova remnants, HIIregions, HI holes, etc.). © 2013 The Authors.

Abstract:

We present the V light curves of δ Scuti type variable V350 Peg, obtained between August and October 2005 at the Ankara University Observatory (AUG) and the TÜBÍTAK National Observatory (TUG). By application of multiple-frequency analyses using Period04 to 7878 photometric V measurements (which are consist of our 747 V data and 7131 V data obtained at Monegrillo Observatory) of V350 Peg, a five-frequency solution was found to be fitted well to the data. In accordance with the computed Q values for V350 Peg, it was found that this star has probably radial mode with l=0 and g-mode oscillations. © 2009 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.

Abstract:

We present V band light curves of δ Scuti type variable CC And, obtained between August and December 2005 at the Ankara University Observatory (AUG) and the TÜBİTAK National Observatory (TUG). By application of multiple-frequency analyses using Period04 (V 1.0) to photometric observations of CC And, a seven-frequency solution was found to be well fitted to the data. In accordance with the computed Q values for CC And, it was found that this star has p-mode and g-mode oscillations. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
