Night-time measurements of astronomical seeing at Dome A in Antarctica
Seeing—the angular size of stellar images blurred by atmospheric turbulence—is a critical parameter used to assess the quality of astronomical sites at optical/infrared wavelengths. Median values at the best m...

A Data-Aware Energy-Saving Storage Management Strategy for On-Site Astronomical Observation at Dome A
The high energy consumption of storage system has always been a thorny issue especially when power supply is limited, e.g. the case of astronomical observation at Dome A in the Antarctic. Many general-purpose ...

Terahertz and far-infrared windows opened at Dome A in Antarctica
The terahertz and far-infrared band, ranging from approximately 0.3 THz to 15 THz (1 mm to 20 μm), is important for astrophysics as it hosts the peak of the thermal radiation of the cold component of the Unive...

F07164+5301: an ESB source with WR features
We report on a new ESB source, as defined by Allenet al. (1991), with Wolf-Rayet (WR) bands in its optical spectrum. The WR bump at λλ4605-4686 is detected. The bump consists of broad HeII λ4686, NVλλ4605-4619, N...

Report on discovery of new Seyfert galaxies
We report our discovery of new active galaxies in a small sample of 23 sources with 2.16 m telescope at Bei**g Astronomical Observatory. After wavelength and flux calibration, they are classified by their deg...
