Accounting for Baryons in Cosmological Constraints from Cosmic Shear
Andrew R. Zentner, Elisabetta Semboloni, Scott Dodelson +3
One of the most pernicious theoretical systematics facing upcoming gravitational lensing surveys is the uncertainty introduced by the effects of baryons on the power spectrum of th…
Can we measure the slopes of density profiles in dwarf spheroidal galaxies?
Klaudia Kowalczyk, Ewa L. Lokas, Stelios Kazantzidis +1
Using collisionless N-body simulations of dwarf galaxies orbiting the Milky Way (MW) we construct realistic models of dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies of the Local Group. The dwarf…

The Properties of Post-Starburst Quasars Based on Optical Spectroscopy
Sabrina L. Cales, Michael S. Brotherton, Zhaohui Shang +8
We present optical spectroscopy of a sample of 38 post-starburst quasars (PSQs) at z ~ 0.3, 29 of which have morphological classifications based on Hubble Space Telescope imaging.…
The clustering of galaxies in the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey: the low redshift sample
John K. Parejko, Tomomi Sunayama, Nikhil Padmanabhan +36
We report on the small scale (0.5<r<40h^-1 Mpc) clustering of 78895 massive (M*~10^11.3M_sun) galaxies at 0.2<z<0.4 from the first two years of data from the Baryon Oscillation Spe…
The Imprint of The Extragalactic Background Light in the Gamma-Ray Spectra of Blazars
LAT Collaboration
The light emitted by stars and accreting compact objects through the history of the Universe is encoded in the intensity of the extragalactic background light (EBL). Knowledge of t…
The Mass-Metallicity Relation with the Direct Method on Stacked Spectra of SDSS Galaxies
Brett H. Andrews, Paul Martini
The relation between galaxy stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity is a sensitive diagnostic of the main processes that drive galaxy evolution, namely cosmological gas inflow, meta…
Baryon Acoustic Oscillations in the Ly-α forest of BOSS quasars
Nicolás G. Busca, Timothée Delubac, James Rich +59
We report a detection of the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) feature in the three-dimensional correlation function of the transmitted flux fraction in the \Lya forest of high-red…
A Census of Star-Forming Galaxies in the z~9-10 Universe based on HST+Spitzer Observations Over 19 CLASH clusters: Three Candidate z~9-10 Galaxies and Improved Constraints on the Star Formation Rate Density at z~9
R. Bouwens, L. Bradley, A. Zitrin +34
We utilise a two-color Lyman-Break selection criterion to search for z~9-10 galaxies over the first 19 clusters in the CLASH program. A systematic search yields three z~9-10 candid…
XMM-Newton Observations of Three Interacting Luminous Infrared Galaxies
Dale Mudd, Smita Mathur, Matteo Guainazzi +8
We investigate the X-ray properties of three interacting luminous infrared galaxy systems. In one of these systems, IRAS 18329+5950, we resolve two separate sources. A second, IRAS…
