In this paper we analyse the spectra of D-type SS H1-36 within a colliding-wind scenario. We aim to analyse the properties of this object taking into account the observational data along the whole electromagnetic spectrum, in order to derive a self-consistent picture able to interpret the nature of the system as a whole. After constraining the relative physical conditions by modelling more than 40 emission lines from radio to UV, we are able to explain the continuum spectral energy distribution by taking into account all the emitting contributions arising from both the stars, the dust shells and the gaseous nebulae. A comprehensive model of the radio spectra allows to reproduce the different slopes of the radio profile and the turnover frequency, as well as the different size of the observed shocked envelope at different frequencies in the light of the different contributions from the expanding and reverse nebulae. The IR continuum unveils the presence of two dust shells with different radii and temperatures, which might be a distinctive feature of D-type symbiotic systems as a class of objects. The broad profiles of IR lines direct us to investigate whether an X-ray jet may be present. This insight leads us to indicate H1-36 as a promising X-ray target and to encourage observations and studies which consistently take into account the complex nature of symbiotic stars throughout the whole electromagnetic spectrum.

We present 109-115 GHz (3 mm) wide-field spectral line observations of 12^CO, 13^CO and C^18O J=1-0 molecular emission and 5.5 and 8.8 GHz (6 and 3 cm) radio continuum emission towards the high-mass star forming complex known as G305. The morphology
of G305 is dominated by a large evacuated cavity at the centre of the complex driven by clusters of O stars surrounded by molecular gas. Our goals are to determine the physical properties of the molecular environment and reveal the relationship between the molecular and ionised gas and star formation in G305. This is in an effort to characterise the star-forming environment and constrain the star formation history in an attempt to evaluate the impact of high-mass stars on the evolution of the G305 complex. Analysis of CO emission in G305 reveals 156 molecular clumps with the following physical characteristics. The 5.5 and 8.8GHz radio continuum emission reveals an extended low surface brightness ionised environment within which we identify 15 large-scale features with a further eight smaller sources projected within these features. By comparing to mid infrared emission and archival data, we identify nine HII regions, seven compact HII regions, one UC HII region, four extended regions. The total integrated flux of the radio continuum emission at 5.5 GHz is ~180 Jy corresponding to a Lyman continuum output of 2.4x10^50 photons s^-1. We compare the ionised and molecular environment with optically identified high-mass stars and ongoing star formation, identified from the literature. Analysis of this dataset reveals a star formation rate of 0.008--0.016 and efficiency of 7--12%, allows us to probe the star formation history of the region and discuss the impact of high-mass stars on the evolution of G305.
We present joint observations of the Sun by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) and the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS). The observations were made of a solar active region on 2015 December 18 as part of the ALMA scie
nce verification effort. A map of the Suns continuum emission of size $2.4 times 2.3$ was obtained by ALMA at a wavelength of 1.25 mm (239 GHz) using mosaicing techniques. A contemporaneous map of size $1.9times 2.9$ was obtained in the Mg II h doublet line at 2803.5AA by IRIS. Both mm/submm$-lambda$ continuum emission and ultraviolet (UV) line emission are believed to originate from the solar chromosphere and both have the potential to serve as powerful and complementary diagnostics of physical conditions in this poorly understood layer of the solar atmosphere. While a clear correlation between mm-$lambda$ brightness temperature $T_B$ and the Mg II h line radiation temperature $T_{rad}$ is observed the slope is $<1$, perhaps as a result of the fact that these diagnostics are sensitive to different parts of the chromosphere and/or the Mg II h line source function includes a scattering component. There is a significant offset between the mean $T_B$(1.25 mm) and mean $T_{rad}$(Mg II), the former being $approx 35%$ greater than the latter. Partitioning the maps into sunspot, quiet regions, and plage regions we find that the slope of the scatter plots between the IRIS Mg II h line $T_{rad}$ and the ALMA brightness temperature $T_B$ is 0.4 (sunspot), 0.56 (quiet regions), and 0.66 (plage regions). We suggest that this change may be caused by the regional dependence of the formation heights of the IRIS and ALMA diagnostics, and/or the increased degree of coupling between the UV source function and the local gas temperature in the hotter, denser gas in plage regions.
We have generated a series of composite QSO spectra using over 22000 individual low resolution (~8A) QSO spectra obtained from the 2dF (18.25<bj<20.85) and 6dF (16<bj<18.25) QSO Redshift Surveys. The large size of the catalogue has enabled us to cons
truct composite spectra in narrow redshift (dz=0.25) and absolute magnitude (dMb=0.5) bins. The median number of QSOs in each composite is ~200, yielding typical S/N of ~100. For a given redshift interval, the composite spectra cover a factor of over 25 in luminosity. Using the composite spectra we have measured the equivalent widths (EWs) of the major broad and narrow emission lines, and the CaII K absorption feature due to the host galaxy of the AGN. Assuming a fixed host galaxy spectral energy distribution (SED), the correlation between CaII K EW and luminosity implies Lgal proportional to Lqso**{0.42+-0.05}. We find strong anti-correlations with luminosity for the EWs of [OII] and [NeV]. These provide hints to the general fading of the NLR in high luminosity sources which we attribute to the NLR dimensions becoming larger than the host galaxy. If average AGN host galaxies have SEDs similar to average galaxies, then the observed narrow [OII] emission could be solely due to the host galaxy at low luminosities (M_B~-20). We measure highly significant Baldwin effects for most broad emission lines (CIV, CIII], MgII, Hbeta, Hgamma) and show that they are predominantly due to correlations with luminosity, not redshift. We find that the Hbeta and Hgamma Balmer lines show an inverse Baldwin effect and are positively correlated with luminosity, unlike the broad UV lines. We postulate that this previously unknown effect is due to a luminosity dependent change in the the ratio of disk to non-disk continuum components (abridged).
The Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) has surveyed a large sample (> 100) of active galactic nuclei in the low-redshift universe (z < 1). Its response at short wavelengths makes it possible to measure directly the far ultraviolet spectral
properties of quasistellar objects (QSOs) and Seyfert 1 galaxies at z < 0.3. Using archival FUSE spectra, we form a composite extreme ultraviolet (EUV) spectrum of QSOs at z < 0.67. After consideration of many possible sources of systematic error in our analysis, we find that the spectral slope of the FUSE composite spectrum, alpha= -0.56^+0.38_-0.28 for F_ u propto u^alpha, is significantly harder than the EUV (lambda lesssim 1200 A) portion of the composite spectrum of QSOs with z > 0.33 formed from archival Hubble Space Telescope spectra, alpha=-1.76 pm 0.12. We identify several prominent emission lines in the fuse composite and find that the high-ionization O VI and Ne VIII emission lines are enhanced relative to the HST composite. Power law continuum fits to the individual FUSE AGN spectra reveal a correlation between EUV spectral slope and AGN luminosity in the FUSE and FUSE + HST samples in the sense that lower luminosity AGNs show harder spectral slopes. We find an anticorrelation between the hardness of the EUV spectral slope and AGN black hole mass, using estimates of this quantity found in the literature. We interpret these results in the context of the well-known anticorrelation between AGN luminosity and emission line strength, the Baldwin effect, given that the median luminosity of the FUSE AGN sample is an order of magnitude lower than that of the HST sample.
We present a comprehensive and self-consistent modelling of the D type symbiotic star (SS) HD330036 from radio to UV. Within a colliding-wind scenario, we analyse the continuum, line and dust spectra by means of SUMA, a code that simulates the physic
al conditions of an emitting gaseous cloud under the coupled effect of ionization from an external radiation source and shocks. We find that the UV lines are emitted from high density gas between the stars downstream of the reverse shock, while the optical lines are emitted downstream of the shock propagating outwards the system. As regards with the continuum SED, three shells are identified in the IR, at 850K, 320 K and 200 K with radii r = 2.8 10^13 cm, 4 10^14$ cm, and 10^15 cm, respectively, adopting a distance to Earth d=2.3 kpc: interestingly, all these shells appear to be circumbinary. The analysis of the unexploited ISO-SWS spectrum reveals that both PAHs and crystalline silicates coexist in HD330036, with PAHs associated to the internal shell at 850 K, and crystalline silicates stored into the cool shells at 320 K and 200 K. Strong evidence that crystalline silicates are shaped in a disk-like structure is derived on the basis of the relative band strengths. Finally, we suggest that shocks can be a reliable mechanism in activating the annealing and the consequent crystallization processes. We show that a consistent interpretation of gas and dust spectra emitted by SS can be obtained by models which accounts for the coupled effect of the photoionizing flux and of shocks. The VLTI/MIDI proposal recently accepted by ESO aims to verify and better constrain some of our results by means of IR interferometric observations.
