Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor Parallaxes of Galactic Cepheid Variable Stars: Period-Luminosity Relations

G. Fritz Benedict, Barbara E. McArthur, Michael W. Feast +6

(abridged) We present new absolute trigonometric parallaxes and relative proper motions for nine Galactic Cepheid variable stars: l Car, zeta Gem, beta Dor, W Sgr, X Sgr, Y Sgr, FF…

Lattice dynamics and thermodynamics of bcc vanadium at high pressures

Xianwei Sha, R. E. Cohen

We investigate the lattice dynamics and thermodynamics of nonmagnetic bcc vanadium as a function of temperature and pressure, using the first principles linear response linear-muff…

First-principles thermoelasticity of bcc iron under pressure

Xianwei Sha, R. E. Cohen

We investigate the elastic and isotropic aggregate properties of ferromagnetic bcc iron as a function of temperature and pressure by computing the Helmholtz free energies for the v…

Toward Eclipse Mapping of Hot Jupiters

Emily Rauscher, Kristen Menou, Sara Seager +3

Recent Spitzer infrared measurements of hot Jupiter eclipses suggest that eclipse mapping techniques could be used to spatially resolve the day-side photospheric emission of these…

A Survey for Supernovae in Massive High-Redshift Clusters

Keren Sharon, A. Gal-Yam, D. Maoz +12

We describe our ongoing program designed to measure the SN-Ia rate in a sample of massive z=0.5-0.9 galaxy clusters. The SN-Ia rate is a poorly known observable, especially at high…

The Two-dimensional XMM-Newton Group Survey: z<0.012 groups

Alexis Finoguenov, David S. Davis, Marc Zimer +1

We present the results of the 2-dimensional XMM-Newton Group Survey (2dXGS), an archival study of nearby galaxy groups. In this paper we consider eleven nearby systems (z<0.012) in…
