A Bayesian Approach to the Vertical Structure of the Disk of the Milky Way
P. Dobbie, S. J. Warren
This work investigates the vertical profile of the stars in the disk of the Milky Way. The models investigated are of the form where, setting , the t…
An Efficient Approach to Obtaining Large Numbers of Distant Supernova Host Galaxy Redshifts
C. Lidman, V. Ruhlmann-Kleider, M. Sullivan +20
We use the wide-field capabilities of the 2dF fibre positioner and the AAOmega spectrograph on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) to obtain redshifts of galaxies that hosted supe…
An X-ray and UV flare from the galaxy XMMSL1 J061927.1-655311
R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +6
New high variability extragalactic sources may be identified by comparing the flux of sources seen in the XMM-Newton Slew Survey with detections and upper limits from the ROSAT All…
The Spectral Energy Distribution of the Seyfert galaxy Ton S180
T. J. Turner, P. Romano, S. B. Kraemer +14
We present spectral results from a multi-satellite, broad-band campaign on the Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Ton S180 performed at the end of 1999. We discuss the spectral-energy di…
Anglo-Australian Observatory February 2009 newsletter
P. Dobbie, S. Ricketts
The February 2009 edition of the AAO newsletter contains articles on the preliminary results from the WiggleZ dark energy survey, the analysis of near-IR observations of the galaxy…
A high Eddington-ratio, true Seyfert 2 galaxy candidate: implications for broad-line-region models
G. Miniutti, R. D. Saxton, P. M. Rodriguez-Pascual +5
A bright, soft X-ray source was detected on 2010 July 14 during an XMM--Newton slew at a position consistent with the galaxy GSN 069 (z=0.018). Previous ROSAT observations failed t…
