Mometasone, also known as mometasone furoate, is a steroid (specifically, a glucocorticoid) medication used to treat certain skin conditions, hay fever, and asthma. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Specifically it is used to prevent rather than treat asthma attacks. [ 10 ]
NGC 6357 is a diffuse nebula near NGC 6334 in the constellation Scorpius. The nebula contains many proto-stars shielded by dark discs of gas, and young stars wrapped in expanding "cocoons" or expanding gases surrounding these small stars. It is also known as the Lobster Nebula.
The term was coined by Steve Mandel who defined them as "high galactic latitude nebulae that are illuminated not by a single star (as most nebula in the plane of the Galaxy are) but by the energy from the integrated flux of all the stars in the Milky Way. As a result, these nebulae are incredibly faint, taking hours of exposure to capture.
For treating atopic dermatitis, newer (second generation) corticosteroids, such as fluticasone propionate and mometasone furoate, are more effective and safer than older ones. They are also generally safe and do not cause skin thinning when used intermittently to treat atopic dermatitis flare-ups.
It is in front of part of the galactic bulge and is therefore useful for its microlensing effect on those background stars. [ 8 ] Despite its relative proximity to us, this metal-poor cluster's light is limited by dust extinction , giving it an apparent magnitude of 5.5; even so, it is the brightest globular cluster visible from mid-northern ...
A central massive object (CMO) is a high mass object or cluster of objects at the centre of a large star system, such as a galaxy or globular cluster.In the case of the former, the CMO may be a supermassive black hole, a nuclear star cluster, or even both together.
NGC 4631 mosaic of two HST images; 7.2′x2′ view. NGC 4631 contains a central starburst, which is a region of intense star formation.The strong star formation is evident in the emission from ionized hydrogen [5] and interstellar dust heated by the stars formed in the starburst. [6]
The combined mass of the cluster is estimated to be 0.15 to 1.5 × 10 15 M ☉. [ 127 ] Measurements of the motion of those intracluster starburst ("planetary") nebulae between M87 and M86 suggest that the two galaxies are moving toward each other and that this may be their first encounter.
