Dissecting the Cosmic Infrared Background with 3D Instruments
D. L. Clements, K. G. Isaak, S. C. Madden +1
The cosmic infrared background (CIB) consists of emission from distant, dusty, star-forming galaxies. Energetically, the CIB is very important as it contains as much energy as the…
Ionisation-induced star formation I: The collect and collapse model
J. E. Dale, I. A. Bonnell, A. P. Whitworth
We conduct Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics simulations of the `collect and collapse' scenario (Elmegreen and Lada, 1977) for star formation triggered by an expanding HII region. We…
A study of the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich increment using archival SCUBA data
M. Zemcov, C. Borys, M. Halpern +2
In a search for evidence of the short wavelength increment in the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect, we have analyzed archival galaxy cluster data from the Sub-millimetre Common User…
A very bright, highly magnified Lyman-break galaxy at z=3.07
Ian Smail, A. M. Swinbank, J. Richard +8
We report the discovery using Hubble Space Telescope imaging and Keck spectroscopy of a very bright, highly magnified (~30*) Lyman Break Galaxy (LBG) at z=3.07 in the field of the…
A sensitive submillimetre survey of Broad Absorption Line quasars
R. S. Priddey, S. C. Gallagher, K. G. Isaak +3
Using the SCUBA bolometer array on the JCMT, we have carried out a submillimetre survey of Broad Absorption Line quasars (BALQs). The sample has been chosen to match, in redshift a…
MAXIPOL: Cosmic Microwave Background Polarimetry Using a Rotating Half-Wave Plate
B. R. Johnson, J. Collins, M. E. Abroe +20
We discuss MAXIPOL, a bolometric balloon-borne experiment designed to measure the E-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB). MAXIPOL is the first bolom…
A VLA search for young protostars embedded in dense cores
D. Stamatellos, D. Ward-Thompson, A. P. Whitworth +1
Four dense cores, L1582A, L1689A, B133 and B68, classified as prestellar in terms of the absence of detectable NIR emission, are observed at radio wavelengths to investigate whethe…
Improved Measurements of the CMB Power Spectrum with ACBAR
C. L. Kuo, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +13
We report improved measurements of temperature anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation made with the Arcminute Cosmology Bolometer Array Receiver (ACBAR). I…
The initial conditions of isolated star formation - VII. Spitzer mapping of pre-stellar cores
J. M. Kirk, D. Ward-Thompson, P. Andre
We have retrieved Spitzer archive data of pre-stellar cores taken with the Multiband Imaging Photometer for Spitzer (MIPS) at a wavelength of 160 um. Seventeen images, containing e…
A SCUBA survey of Orion, the low-mass end of the core mass function
D. Nutter, D. Ward-Thompson
We have re-analysed all of the SCUBA archive data of the Orion star-forming regions. We have put together all of the data taken at different times by different groups. Consequently…
Star formation history and evolution of gas-rich dwarf galaxies in the Centaurus A group
M. Grossi, M. J. Disney, B. J . Pritzl +4
We analyse the properties of three unusual dwarf galaxies in the Centaurus A group discovered with the HIPASS survey. From their optical morphology they appear to be low surface br…
Observing CMB polarisation through ice
Luca Pietranera, Stefan Buhler, Paolo G. Calisse +8
Ice crystal clouds in the upper troposphere can generate polarisation signals at the uK level. This signal can seriously affect very sensitive ground based searches for E- and B-mo…
MAXIPOL: Data Analysis and Results
J. H. P. Wu, J. Zuntz, M. E. Abroe +17
We present results from and the analysis of data from MAXIPOL, a balloon-borne experiment designed to measure the polarization in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). MAXIPOL is…
The Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey - Description and Early Results
R. F. Minchin, R. Auld, J. I. Davies +11
The Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey (AGES) is a 2000-hour neutral hydrogen (HI) survey using the new Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA) multibeam instrument at Arecibo Observatory…
The minimum mass for star formation, and the origin of binary brown dwarfs
A. P. Whitworth, D. Stamatellos
Our first aim is to calculate the minimum mass for Primary Fragmentation in a variety of potential star-formation scenarios, i.e. (i) hierarchical fragmentation of a 3-D medium; (i…
The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey First Data Release
S. J. Warren, N. C. Hambly, S. Dye +37
The First Data Release (DR1) of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) took place on 2006 July 21. UKIDSS is a set of five large near-infrared surveys, covering a complementar…
The existence and detection of optically dark galaxies by 21cm surveys
J. I. Davies, M. J. Disney, R. F. Minchin +2
One explanation for the disparity between Cold Dark Matter (CDM) predictions of galaxy numbers and observations could be that there are numerous dark galaxies in the Universe. Thes…

LIGO Scientific Collaboration
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) has performed the fourth science run, S4, with significantly improved interferometer sensitivities with respect to pr…
