An 80-kpc Lyman-alpha halo around a high redshift type-2 QSO
Daniel J. B. Smith, Matt J. Jarvis, Chris Simpson +1
We announce the discovery of an extended emission line region associated with a high redshift type-2 QSO. The halo, which was discovered in our new wide-field narrow-band survey, r…
Globular Cluster Populations in Four Early-Type Poststarburst Galaxies
Aparna Maybhate, Paul Goudfrooij, Francois Schweizer +2
We present a study of the globular cluster systems of four early-type poststarburst galaxies using deep g and I-band images from the ACS camera aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (H…
The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey and the search for the most distant quasars
Daniel J. Mortlock, Mitesh Patel, Stephen J. Warren +5
The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS) has the necessary combination of filters (Y, J, H and K), depth (Y <~ 20.2) and area coverage (~4000 deg^2) to d…
Updated parameters for the transiting exoplanet WASP-3b using RISE, a new fast camera for the Liverpool Telescope
N. P. Gibson, D. Pollacco, E. K. Simpson +9
Some of the first results are reported from RISE - a new fast camera mounted on the Liverpool Telescope primarily designed to obtain high time resolution light curves of transiting…
High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the evolving shock in the 2006 outburst of RS Ophiuchi
J. -U. Ness, J. J. Drake, S. Starrfield +9
The evolution of the 2006 outburst of the recurrent nova RS Ophiuchi was followed with 12 X-ray grating observations with Chandra and XMM-Newton. We present detailed spectral analy…
A planetary nebula around nova V458 Vul undergoing flash ionization
R. Wesson, M. J. Barlow, R. L. M. Corradi +25
Nova V458 Vul erupted on 2007 August 8th and reached a visual magnitude of 8.1 a few days later. H images obtained six weeks before the outburst as part of the IPHAS galactic pl…
