The Interstellar Medium of Star-forming Irregular Galaxies: The View with ISO
D. Hunter, M. Kaufman, D. Hollenbach +8
We present mid-infrared imaging and far-infrared (FIR) spectroscopy of 5 IBm galaxies observed by ISO as part of our larger study of the inter- stellar medium of galaxies. Most of…
The 21Na(p,gamma)22Mg Reaction and Oxygen-Neon Novae
S. Bishop, R. E. Azuma, L. Buchmann +25
The 21Na(p,gamma)22Mg reaction is expected to play an important role in the nucleosynthesis of 22Na in Oxygen-Neon novae. The decay of 22Na leads to the emission of a characteristi…
Evidence of Asymmetry in SN 2007rt, a Type IIn Supernova
C. Trundle, A. Pastorello, S. Benetti +12
An optical photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the slowly-evolving Type IIn SN2007rt is presented, covering a duration of 481 days after discovery. Its earliest spectrum, tak…
Mode-locked Bloch oscillations in a ring cavity
M. Samoylova, N. Piovella, D. Hunter +3
We present a new technique for stabilizing and monitoring Bloch oscillations of ultracold atoms in an optical lattice under the action of a constant external force. In the proposed…
The low-mass Initial Mass Function in the 30 Doradus starburst cluster
M. Andersen, H. Zinnecker, A. Moneti +5
We present deep Hubble Space Telescope (HST) NICMOS 2 F160W band observations of the central 56*57" (14pc*14.25pc) region around R136 in the starburst cluster 30 Dor (NGC 2070) loc…
Real-time buffer gas pressure tuning in a micro-machined vapor cell
S. Dyer, A. McWilliam, D. Hunter +7
We demonstrate a controllable depletion of the nitrogen buffer gas pressure in a micro-machined cesium (Cs) vapor cell from the dynamic heating of an alkali dispenser pill. When th…
