This work is concentrated on the fitting of the Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) templates to the broad-band observational data of Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB) host galaxies, which were bright in submillimetre and/or radio wavelengths, namely hosts of GRB 980703, GRB 000210, GRB 000418 and GRB 010222. This is the first successful entire SED fitting, from optical to radio wavelengths, achieved for GRB hosts. I present constraints on their properties, including the need for high dust temperatures, high star formation rates (SFR) and low ages. I estimated very conservative and robust lower limits on the dust temperatures in a range from T 29 K to T 59 K. Their SFRs derived from infrared emission range from 179 to 1211 solar masses per year and it places GRB hosts in a category of highly star-forming galaxies. I propose that the seeming contradiction of high SFRs and blue optical colors of GRB hosts can be explained by their low ages in a range from 90 Myr to 2 Gyr.

A NEW NOVEL IN THE NATIONALLY BEST-SELLING RCN MILITARY SF SERIES! Leary and Mundy are back in another military science fiction adventure as they undertake a mission to a distant but critical star system. IT'S JUST A REBELLION IN A DISTANT STAR CLUSTER. SO THEY SAID. Captain Daniel Leary thinks that his marriage will allow him to slip into the quiet role of a naval officer in peacetime. His friend, the spy and cybrarian Adele Mundy, is content to be collating data in her library. But high officials of both superpowers are involved! Those who want Daniel and Adele to become involved in the Tarbell Stars claim that only they can prevent a war between the Republic of Cinnabar and its great rival, the Alliance of Free Stars. The conflict is political, but at the sharp end it means blazing warfare and cold-blooded murder. Daniel and Adele will be at the sharp end. The odds in ships and guns are badly in the enemy's favor. Daniel, Adele, and the crew of the Princess Cecile will do everything humanly possible, but that may not be enough against an enemy battleship. And even if Daniel and his companions succeed in battle, they can't be sure whether their employers really wanted them to win—or whether they even want them alive. All they can do is to race forward, hoping to come through into DEATH'S BRIGHT DAY.

The definitive—and salacious—history of the iconic hotel that Hollywood stars have called a home away from home for almost a century. “Fascinating; dishy, and glimmering with insight.... This is the definitive book about Hollywood’s most storied hotel.” — Cheryl Strayed, bestselling author of Wild Since 1929, Hollywood’s brightest stars have flocked to the Chateau Marmont as if it were a second home. An apartment building-turned-hotel, the Chateau has been the backdrop for generations of gossip and folklore: where director Nicholas Ray slept with his sixteen-year-old Rebel Without a Cause star Natalie Wood; Jim Morrison swung from the balconies; John Belushi suffered a fatal overdose; and Lindsay Lohan got the boot after racking up nearly $50,000 in charges in less than two months. But despite its mythic reputation, much of what has happened inside the Chateau’s walls has eluded the public eye—until now. With wit and insight, Shawn Levy recounts the wild revelries and scandalous liaisons, the creative breakthroughs and marital breakdowns, the births and deaths to which the hotel has been a party. Vivid, salacious, and richly informed, The Castle on Sunset is a glittering tribute to Hollywood as seen from inside the walls of its most hallowed hotel.

'There is a certain star I like above all others. It is named after us. It's called the Dog Star, and shines brighter than any other. If you are ever lost, look for the star. It will guide you home' This is the story of a loveable mixed breed dog named Burke who, shortly after he is born, misunderstands something his mother tells him, leading him to believe that he - like all other dogs - is immortal. Only, as we know, that's not true. In fact, in a cruel twist of fate, dogs tend to lead much shorter lives than their human counterparts. So, what happens when a dog like Burke finds out that he is not immortal as he was first led to believe? It sends him on a journey to understand the power of hope, of joy, and the heavy weight of grief. The book follows Burke as he moves from one home to another, trying to find a place to belong. And when he finally does, he is given the ultimate task: find his person, someone to love before Burke expires from this Earth. (Burke, as it turns out, is a bit of a drama queen.) The Stars Look Like Home i s a novel of found family, of finding happiness in the unlikeliest of places and fighting with all your might to keep it and above all this is a love story for our four legged friends.

Bloomsbury presents As Many Souls As Stars by Natasha Siegel, read by Kristin Atherton. 1592. Cybil Harding, daughter of a secret alchemist, was born under cursed stars. Destined to bring disaster to those around her, Cybil is trapped in a grand house with a mother paralysed by grief and a father willing to sacrifice everything in pursuit of magic. Miriam Richter is a creature born of shadow. Forged by the dark arts, she is doomed to exist for eternity and destined to be alone – consuming the souls of mortals for sustenance. Everything changes when Miriam meets Cybil, whose soul shines with a light so bright, she must claim it for herself. Miriam offers a bargain: she will grant Cybil reincarnation and the chance to change her stars in exchange for her soul. Thus begins a dance across centuries as Miriam seeks Cybil in every lifetime to claim her prize. But Cybil isn't inclined to play by the rules. As the two women circle each other, drawn together inescapably as light and dark, the bond forged between them grows stronger. In their battle for dominance, only one of them can win… but perhaps they can't survive without each other. Natasha Siegel's fantasy debut is full of transporting historical detail, with thrilling twists and an abiding, thought-provoking romance that feels at once epic and deeply personal. Ambitious, gothic, and magical, As Many Souls as Stars is about the lengths we go to protect ourselves, our legacy, and those we love.

Mit den Okularen der Serie DeLite hat TeleVue eine leichte, kleine und vor allem preiswerte Alternative zu den beliebten Delos-Okularen entwickelt. Dabei stehen die DeLite-Okulare den Delos in ihrer optischen Qualität in Nichts nach, lediglich das Eigengesichtsfeld ist mit 62° etwas enger. Wie die Delos bieten auch die DeLite-Okulare einen bequemen Einblick mit 20 Millimeter Augenabstand, eine einrastbare Augenmuschelverstellung und können mit dem Dioptrx-System von TeleVue kombiniert werden. Mittels Dioptrx können Sie einen möglichen Astigmatismus ihrer Augen korrigieren.Der Name DeLite bestreibt das entzückende Seherlebnis mit diesen Okularen, steht aber auch für den genialen Entwickler Paul Dellechiaie, dem wir diese Okulare verdanken.Alle DeLite-Modelle für 1,25''-Okularauszüge sind parfokal zu den Plössl-, Nagler-, Panoptic-, und Delos-Okularen von TeleVue.Testbericht:''I tried them with four scopes - a 12-inch f/4 Newtonian reflector fitted with Tele Vue's Big Paracorr coma corrector, a 12-inch f/5 Dobsonian, a 4-inch f/5.4 apo refractor, and a classic 6-inch f/9 Newtonian.As I've come to expect from all of Tele Vue's eyepieces, the DeLites offered superb views. Stars appeared as pinpoints across the entire field; there wasn't a hint of false color around even the brightest stars; and there was only a touch of pincushion distortion, meaning that round objects won't stretch into ovals as you sweep them across the field. Daytime views were contrasty and without a trace of color fringes even at the borders of high-contrast objects such as power lines seen against a bright sky. These are the features everyone looks for in a quality eyepiece, but the DeLites offered something more [...]. The DeLites are very easy to look through. You never get the feeling that you are struggling to get your eye perfectly aligned with the eyepiece.''Dennis di Cicco, Sky & Telescope Sept. 2015
