Faint NUV/FUV Standards from Swift/UVOT, GALEX and SDSS Photometry
Michael H. Siegel, Erik A. Hoversten, Peter W. A. Roming +8
At present, the precision of deep ultraviolet photometry is somewhat limited by the dearth of faint ultraviolet standard stars. In an effort to improve this situation, we present a…
Near-Ultraviolet Properties of a Large Sample of Type Ia Supernovae as Observed with the Swift UVOT
Peter A. Milne, Peter J. Brown, Peter W. A. Roming +15
We present ultraviolet (UV) and optical photometry of 26 Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) observed from March 2005 to March 2008 with the NASA {\it Swift} Ultraviolet and Optical Telesc…
The Absolute Magnitudes of Type Ia Supernovae in the Ultraviolet
Peter J. Brown, Peter W. A. Roming, Peter Milne +19
We examine the absolute magnitudes and light-curve shapes of 14 nearby(redshift z = 0.004--0.027) Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) observed in the ultraviolet (UV) with the Swift Ultrav…
Paper II: Calibration of the Swift ultraviolet/optical telescope
A. A. Breeveld, P. A. Curran, E. A. Hoversten +32
The Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) is one of three instruments onboard the Swift observatory. The photometric calibration has been published, and this paper follows up with d…
The static electric polarizability of a particle bound by a finite potential well
M. A. Maize, M. A. Antonacci
In this paper we derive an expression for the static electric polarizability of a particle bound by a finite potential well without the explicit use of the continuum states in our…
