Future?

• Our proposal for the project in the perod of 2006. – 2010 is accepted

• Now our group has 9 researchers (3 MSc students, 3 PhD students, 1 postdoc, and 2 senior researchers) – total 82 i.m./year

• Investigations: (i) AGNs from central part to the extended stellar structure; (ii) Gravitational lens – influence on the spectra of lensed QSOs; (iii) Gamma ray bursts; (iv) spectral line shape phenomena from starts to the QSOs

Ok, let us investigate!
