Velocity-resolved reverberation mapping of five bright Seyfert 1 galaxies
G. De Rosa, M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier +99
We present the first results from a reverberation-mapping campaign undertaken during the first half of 2012, with additional data on one AGN (NGC 3227) from a 2014 campaign. Our ma…
Continuum Reverberation Mapping of the Accretion Disks in Two Seyfert 1 Galaxies
M. M. Fausnaugh, D. A. Starkey, Keith Horne +69
We present optical continuum lags for two Seyfert 1 galaxies, MCG+08-11-011 and NGC 2617, using monitoring data from a reverberation mapping campaign carried out in 2014. Our light…
Upper Bounds on Parity Violating Gamma-Ray Asymmetries in Compound Nuclei from Polarized Cold Neutron Capture
M. T. Gericke, J. D. Bowman, R. D. Carlini +33
Parity-odd asymmetries in the electromagnetic decays of compound nuclei can sometimes be amplified above values expected from simple dimensional estimates by the complexity of comp…
The Berkeley sample of Type II supernovae: BVRI light curves and spectroscopy of 55 SNe II
T. de Jaeger, W. Zheng, B. E. Stahl +58
In this work, BV RI light curves of 55 Type II supernovae (SNe II) from the Lick Observatory Supernova Search program obtained with the Katzman Automatic Imaging Telescope and the…
Reverberation Mapping of Optical Emission Lines in Five Active Galaxies
M. M. Fausnaugh, C. J. Grier, M. C. Bentz +68
We present the first results from an optical reverberation mapping campaign executed in 2014, targeting the active galactic nuclei (AGN) MCG+08-11-011, NGC 2617, NGC 4051, 3C 382,…
Relative Spectra and Distributions of Fluences of 3He and 4He in Solar Energetic Particles
Vahe Petrosian, Yan Wei Jiang, Siming Liu +3
Solar Energetic Particles (SEPs) show a rich variety of spectra and relative abundances of many ionic species and their isotopes. A long standing puzzle has been the extreme enrich…
High-Efficiency Resonant RF Spin Rotator with Broad Phase Space Acceptance for Pulsed Polarized Cold Neutron Beams
P. -N. Seo, L. Barron-Palos, J. D. Bowman +30
We have developed a radio-frequency resonant spin rotator to reverse the neutron polarization in a 9.5 cm x 9.5 cm pulsed cold neutron beam with high efficiency over a broad cold n…
