P. Yock, I. Bond, N. Rattenbury +25
Recent work by the MOA gravitational microlensing group is briefly described, including (i) the current observing strategy, (ii) use of a high-speed parallel computer for analysis…
The Galactic Exoplanet Survey Telescope (GEST)
D. P. Bennett, J. Bally, I. Bond +22
The Galactic Exoplanet Survey Telescope (GEST) will observe a 2 square degree field in the Galactic bulge to search for extra-solar planets using a gravitational lensing technique.…
A Census of Exoplanets in Orbits Beyond 0.5 AU via Space-based Microlensing
David P. Bennett, J. Anderson, J. -P. Beaulieu +16
A space-based gravitational microlensing exoplanet survey will provide a statistical census of exoplanets with masses greater than 0.1 Earth-masses and orbital separations ranging…
Test by JANZOS of the Standard Model of Cosmic Ray Acceleration in the COMPTEL/ROSAT Supernova Renmant
F. Abe, I. Bond, E. Budding +31
A search for ultra-high energy gamma-rays emitted by the young, nearby supernova remnant that was discovered recently by the COMPTEL and ROSAT satellites was made using the JANZOS…
The Science Case for PILOT III: the Nearby Universe
J. S. Lawrence, M. C. B. Ashley, J. Bailey +20

The Nature of V359 Centauri Revealed: New Long-Period SU UMa-Type Dwarf Nova
T. Kato, R. Stubbings, P. Nelson +12
We detected four outbursts of V359 Cen (possible nova discovered in 1939) between 1999 and 2002. Time-resolved CCD photometry during two outbursts (1999 and 2002) revealed that V35…
