LFVN observations of active galactic nuclei
A. Pushkarev, I. Molotov, M. Nechaeva +7
In November 1999 we carried out VLBI observations of several quasars and BL Lacertae objects at 1.66 GHz. Six antennas participated in the experiment (Bear Lakes, Svetloe, Pushchin…
COBRaS: The e-MERLIN 21 cm Legacy survey of Cygnus OB2
J. C. Morford, D. M. Fenech, R. K. Prinja +12
The role of massive stars is central to an understanding of galactic ecology. It is important to establish the details of how massive stars provide radiative, chemical, and mechani…
The Co-Ordinated Radio and Infrared Survey for High-Mass Star Formation. V. The CORNISH-South Survey and Catalogue
T. Irabor, M. G. Hoare, M. Burton +32
We present the first high spatial resolution radio continuum survey of the southern Galactic plane. The CORNISH project has mapped the region defined by $295^{\circ} < l < 350^{\ci…
Inspecting spectra with sound: proof-of-concept & extension to datacubes
James W. Trayford, C. M. Harrison, R. C. Hinz +3
We present a novel approach to inspecting galaxy spectra using sound, via their direct audio representation ('spectral audification'). We discuss the potential of this as a complem…
Measuring the Size of the Vela Pulsar's Radio Emission Region
C. R. Gwinn, J. E. Reynolds, D. L. Jauncey +9
We describe measurements of the size of the Vela pulsar via scintillation, using both fits to the distribution of intensity and measurements of the modulation index. We briefly dis…
ALMA observations of the supergiant B[e] star Wd1-9
D. Fenech, J. S. Clark, R. K. Prinja +3
Mass-loss in massive stars plays a critical role in their evolution, although the precise mechanism(s) responsible - radiatively driven winds, impulsive ejection and/or binary inte…
Size of the Vela Pulsar's Emission Region at 18 cm Wavelength
C. R. Gwinn, M. D. Johnson, J. E. Reynolds +12
We present measurements of the linear diameter of the emission region of the Vela pulsar at observing wavelength lambda=18 cm. We infer the diameter as a function of pulse phase fr…
Noise in the Cross-Power Spectrum of the Vela Pulsar
C. R. Gwinn, M. D. Johnson, J. E. Reynolds +12
We compare the noise in interferometric measurements of the Vela pulsar from ground- and space-based antennas with theoretical predictions. The noise depends on both the flux densi…
A tidal disruption-like X-ray flare from the quiescent galaxy SDSS J120136.02+300305.5
R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, P. Esquej +4
SDSS J120136.02+300305.5 was detected in an XMM-Newton slew from June 2010 with a flux 56 times higher than an upper limit from ROSAT, corresponding to Lx~3x10^44 ergs/s. It has th…
An ALMA 3mm continuum census of Westerlund 1
D. M. Fenech, J. S. Clark, R. K. Prinja +6
Massive stars play an important role in both cluster and galactic evolution and the rate at which they lose mass is a key driver of both their own evolution and their interaction w…
