Weak lensing measurements of dark matter halos of galaxies from COMBO-17
M. Kleinheinrich, P. Schneider, H. -W. Rix +8
We present a measurement of mass estimates for dark matter halos around galaxies from the COMBO-17 survey using weak gravitational lensing. COMBO-17 is particularly useful for this…
Turbulence in Class 0 and Class I protostellar envelopes
D. Ward-Thompson, L. Hartmann, D. J. Nutter
We estimate the levels of turbulence in the envelopes of Class 0 and I protostars using a model based on measurements of the peak separation of double-peaked asymmetric line profil…
Dust in spiral galaxies: global properties
J. A. Stevens, M. Amure, W. K. Gear
We present and analyse high-quality SCUBA 850- and 450-um images of 14 local spiral galaxies, including the detection of dust well out into the extended disk in many cases. We use…
The Baryonic Tully Fisher Relation
Sebastian Gurovich, Stacy S. McGaugh, Ken C. Freeman +3
We validate the baryonic Tully Fisher (BTF) relation by exploring the Tully Fish er (TF) and BTF properties of optically and HI-selected disk galaxies. The data includes galaxies f…
The Minimum Mass for Opacity-Limited Fragmentation in Turbulent Cloud Cores
D. F. A. Boyd, A. P. Whitworth
We present a new analysis of the minimum mass for star formation, based on opacity-limited fragmentation. Our analysis differs from the standard one, which considers hierarchical f…
The Dwarf LSB Galaxy Population of the Virgo Cluster II. Colours and HI line observations
S. Sabatini, J. Davies, W. van Driel +5
In order to investigate the nature of dwarf Low Surface Brightness (LSB) galaxies we have undertaken a deep B and I band CCD survey of a 14 sq degree strip in the Virgo Cluster and…
The South Pole Telescope
SPT Collaboration, J. E. Ruhl, P. A. R. Ade +25
A new 10 meter diameter telescope is being constructed for deployment at the NSF South Pole research station. The telescope is designed for conducting large-area millimeter and sub…
The SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey: Results from the Optically-Selected Sample
Catherine Vlahakis, Loretta Dunne, Stephen Eales
We present new results from the SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey, the first large statistical submillimetre survey of the local Universe. Following our initial survey of a sample…
The CMB temperature power spectrum from an improved analysis of the Archeops data
M. Tristram, G. Patanchon, J. F. Macias-Perez +47
We present improved results on the measurement of the angular power spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropies using the data from the last Archeops…
An update on the SCUBA-2 project
Michael Audley, Wayne Holland, Trevor Hodson +16
SCUBA-2, which replaces SCUBA (the Submillimeter Common User Bolometer Array) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) in 2006, is a large-format bolometer array for submillimet…
The structure of elliptical galaxies in the Virgo cluster. Results from the INT Wide Field Survey
G. Gavazzi, A. Donati, O. Cucciati +4
We report on a complete CCD imaging survey of 226 elliptical galaxies in the North-East quadrant of the Virgo cluster, representative of the properties of giant and dwarf elliptica…
SNII enrichment and the star cluster mass function
Simon P. Goodwin, B. E. J. Pagel
Changing the form of the star cluster mass function (CMF) can effectively change the upper end of the stellar initial mass function. The yields of from supernovae are very sensitiv…
The cosmological significance of Low Surface Brightness galaxies found in a deep blind neutral-hydrogen survey
R. F. Minchin, M. J. Disney, Q. A. Parker +16
We have placed limits on the cosmological significance of gas-rich low surface-brightness (LSB) galaxies as a proportion of the total population of gas-rich galaxies by carrying ou…
A Search for Dense Molecular Gas in High Redshift Infrared-Luminous Galaxies
C. L. Carilli, P. Solomon, P. Vanden Bout +8
We present a search for HCN emission from four high redshift far infrared (IR) luminous galaxies. Current data and models suggest that these high IR luminous galaxies represent…
Oxygen Abundances and Chemical Evolution in Low Surface Brightness Galaxies
Rachel Kuzio de Naray, Stacy S. McGaugh, W. J. G. de Blok
We report the oxygen abundances of the HII regions of a sample of low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies. We provide analytic functions describing the McGaugh (1991) calibration of…
The Formation of Free-Floating Brown Dwarves and Planetary-Mass Objects by Photo-Erosion of Prestellar Cores
A. P. Whitworth, H. Zinnecker
We explore the possibility that, in the vicinity of an OB star, a prestellar core which would otherwise have formed an intermediate or low-mass star may form a free-floating brown…
The SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey Optically-Selected Sample
Catherine Vlahakis, Stephen Eales, Loretta Dunne
We discuss the progress of the SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey (SLUGS), the first large, statistical sub-mm survey of the local universe. Since our original survey of a sample o…
The Origin of the IMF from Core Mass Functions
Simon P. Goodwin, A. P. Whitworth, D. Ward-Thompson
We examine the initial mass functions (IMFs) of stars produced by different molecular core mass functions. Simulations suggest that more massive cores produce more stars, so we pro…
Dust temperatures in asymmetric prestellar cores
D. Stamatellos, A. P. Whitworth
We present 2D Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations of flattened prestellar cores. We argue the importance of observing prestellar cores near the peak of their emission spectr…
The HI Detection of Low Column Density Clouds and Galaxies
Suzanne M. Linder, Robert F. Minchin, Jonathan I. Davies +5
The HIDEEP survey (Minchin et al. 2003) was done in an attempt to find objects having low inferred neutral hydrogen column densities, yet they found a distribution which was strong…
ISO Observations of the 53W002 Group at 6.7 microns: In Search of the Oldest Stellar Populations at z=2.4
W. C. Keel, W. Wu, P. P. van der Werf +5
We present a deep ISO observation at 6.7 microns of the 53W002 group of galaxies and AGN at z=2.4. This approximately samples the emitted K band. The faint, blue star-forming objec…
