ɛhf values are closely related to the enrichment
ɛhf values are closely related to the enrichment or depletion of hf relative to the chondritic uniform reservoir. a positive ɛhf value means that hf concentration in sample is larger than that of chondritic uniform reservoir. this also means a higher lu/hf ratio in sample. positive value would be found in the residue s...

both lu and hf are incompatible trace elements and relatively immobile. however, hf is more incompatible than lu, and thus it is relatively enriched in the crust and in silicate melts. thus, a higher lu/hf ratio (also meaning a higher hf / hf ratio, over time, due to lu decay) is generally found in the residual solid d...

maffei 1 is mainly made of old metal-rich stars more than 10 billion years in age. as a large elliptical galaxy, maffei 1 is expected to host a significant population of globular clusters (about 1100). however, due to heavy intervening absorption, ground-based observations for a long time failed to identify any of them...

maffei 1 possesses a tiny blue nucleus at its center approximately 1.2 pc across. it contains about 29 solar masses of ionized hydrogen. this implies that it has undergone recent star formation. there are no signs of an active galactic nucleus (agn) in the center of maffei 1. the x-ray emission from the center is exten...

the apparent dimensions of maffei 1 depend strongly on the wavelength of light because of the heavy obscuration by the milky way. in blue light it is 1–2′ across while in the near infrared its major axis reaches 23′—more than 3/4 of the moon's diameter. at a distance of 3 mpc this corresponds to approximately 23 kpc. t...

maffei 1 is a massive elliptical galaxy classified
maffei 1 is a massive elliptical galaxy classified as type e3 in the hubble classification scheme. this means that it is slightly flattened, its semi-minor axis being 70% of its semi-major axis. maffei 1 has also a boxy shape (e(b)3 type), while its central region (radius ≈ 34 pc) is deficient in light emission as comp...

maffei 1 moves away from the sun at the speed of about 66 km/s. its velocity relative to the local group's center of mass is, however, 297 km/s away. that means that maffei 1 participates in the general expansion of the universe.
