Estimating Black Hole Masses in Hundreds of Quasars
Nina Hernitschek, Hans-Walter Rix, Jo Bovy +1
We explore the practical feasibility of AGN broad-band reverberation mapping and present first results. We lay out and apply a rigorous approach for stochastic reverberation mappin…
galpy: A Python Library for Galactic Dynamics
Jo Bovy
I describe the design, implementation, and usage of galpy, a Python package for galactic-dynamics calculations. At its core, galpy consists of a general framework for representing…
Spatially Resolved Gas Kinematics within a Ly Nebula: Evidence for Large-scale Rotation
Moire K. M. Prescott, Crystal L. Martin, Arjun Dey
We use spatially extended measurements of Ly as well as less optically thick emission lines from an 80 kpc Ly nebula at to assess the role of resonant…
The Clustering and Halo Masses of Star Forming Galaxies at z<1
Tim Dolley, Michael J. I. Brown, Benjamin J. Weiner +8
We present clustering measurements and halo masses of star forming galaxies at 0.2 < z < 1.0. After excluding AGN, we construct a sample of 22553 24 μm sources selected from 8.42 d…
The power spectrum of the Milky Way: Velocity fluctuations in the Galactic disk
Jo Bovy, Jonathan C. Bird, Ana E. García Pérez +3
We investigate the kinematics of stars in the mid-plane of the Milky Way on scales between 25 pc and 10 kpc with data from the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experimen…
Compact Stellar Binary Assembly in the First Nuclear Star Clusters and r-Process Synthesis in the Early Universe
Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Michele Trenti, Morgan MacLeod +3
Investigations of elemental abundances in the ancient and most metal deficient stars are extremely important because they serve as tests of variable nucleosynthesis pathways and ca…
