The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope: BLAST
E. Pascale, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +27
The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) is a sub-orbital surveying experiment designed to study the evolutionary history and processes of star formation in…
The intracluster magnetic field power spectrum in Abell 2382
D. Guidetti, M. Murgia, F. Govoni +5
The goal of this work is to put constraints on the strength and structure of the magnetic field in the cluster of galaxies A2382. We investigate the relationship between magnetic f…
The ATESP 5 GHz radio survey. II. Physical properties of the faint radio population
A. Mignano, I. Prandoni, L. Gregorini +5
One of the most debated issues about sub-mJy radio sources, which are responsible for the steepening of the 1.4 GHz source counts, is the origin of their radio emission. Particular…
ATCA observations of the very young Planetary Nebula SAO 244567
G. Umana, C. Trigilio, L. Cerrigone +2
The radio emission from the youngest known Planetary nebula, SAO244567, has been mapped at 1384, 2368, 4800, 8640, 16832 and 18752 MHz by using the Australian Telescope Compact Arr…
Millimeter observations of Planetary Nebulae: a contribution to the Planck pre-launch catalogue
G. Umana, P. Leto, C. Trigilio +5
We present new millimetre 43 GHz observations of a sample of radio-bright Planetary Nebulae. Such observations were carried out to have a good determination of the high-frequency r…
Cosmic rays and Radio Halos in galaxy clusters : new constraints from radio observations
G. Brunetti, T. Venturi, D. Dallacasa +4
Clusters of galaxies are sites of acceleration of charged particles and sources of non-thermal radiation. We report on new constraints on the population of cosmic rays in the Intra…
Water maser variability over 20 years in a large sample of star-forming regions: the complete database
M. Felli, J. Brand, R. Cesaroni +10
Context. Water vapor emission at 22 GHz from masers associated with star-forming regions is highly variable. Aims. We present a database of up to 20 years of monitoring of a sample…
Geometrical tests of cosmological models. III. The cosmology-evolution diagram at z=1
C. Marinoni, A. Saintonge, T. Contini +22
The rotational velocity of distant galaxies, when interpreted as a size (luminosity) indicator, may be used as a tool to select high redshift standard rods (candles) and probe worl…
The innermost region of the water megamaser radio galaxy 3C403
A. Tarchi, A. Brunthaler, C. Henkel +3
The standard unified scheme of active galactic nuclei requires the presence of high column densities of gas and dust potentially obscuring the central engine. So far, few direct su…
The space density of cataclysmic variables: constraints from the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole Survey
M. L. Pretorius, C. Knigge, D. O'Donoghue +3
We use the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) survey to construct a small, but purely X-ray flux-limited sample of cataclysmic variable stars (CVs). The sample includes only 4 systems…
