SSGSS: The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey
Matthew J. O'Dowd, David Schiminovich, Benjamin D. Johnson +8
The Spitzer-SDSS-GALEX Spectroscopic Survey (SSGSS) provides a new sample of 101 star-forming galaxies at z < 0.2 with unprecedented multi-wavelength coverage. New mid- to far-infr…
The Higgs boson in the MSSM in light of the LHC
D. Albornoz Vasquez, G. Belanger, R. M. Godbole +1
We investigate the expectations for the light Higgs signal in the MSSM in different search channels at the LHC. After taking into account dark matter and flavor constraints in the…
Environmental effects in the interaction and merging of galaxies in zCOSMOS
P. Kampczyk, S. J. Lilly, L. de Ravel +56
(Abridged) We analyze the environments and galactic properties (morphologies and star-formation histories) of a sample of 153 close kinematic pairs in the redshift range 0.2 < z <…
On the origin and composition of Galactic cosmic rays
N. Prantzos
The composition of Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) presents strong similarities to the standard (cosmic) composition, but also noticeable differences, the most important being the high…
A new method for calculating the convergent point of a moving group
P. A. B. Galli, R. Teixeira, C. Ducourant +2
Context: Convergent point (CP) search methods are important tools for studying the kinematic properties of open clusters and young associations whose members share the same spatial…
EChO - Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory
G. Tinetti, J. P. Beaulieu, T. Henning +131
A dedicated mission to investigate exoplanetary atmospheres represents a major milestone in our quest to understand our place in the universe by placing our Solar System in context…
MAGPHYS: a publicly available tool to interpret observed galaxy SEDs
Elisabete da Cunha, Stephane Charlot, Loretta Dunne +2
We present a simple, physically-motivated model to interpret consistently the emission from galaxies at ultraviolet, optical and infrared wavelengths. We combine this model with a…
Search for cold gas in z>2 damped Lyman-alpha systems: 21-cm and H_2 absorption
R. Srianand, N. Gupta, P. Petitjean +4
(Abridged) We present the results of a systematic GBT and GMRT survey for 21-cm absorption in a sample of 10 DLAs at 2<z_abs<3.4. Analysis of L-band VLBA images of the background Q…
A high resolution study of intergalactic O VI absorbers at z~2.3
S. Muzahid, R. Srianand, J. Bergeron +1
[Abridged] We present a detailed study of the largest sample of intervening O VI systems in the redshift range 1.9 < z < 3.1 detected in high resolution (R ~ 45,000) spectra of 18…
Herschel Far-Infrared and Sub-millimeter Photometry for the KINGFISH Sample of Nearby Galaxies
D. A. Dale, G. Aniano, C. W. Engelbracht +39
New far-infrared and sub-millimeter photometry from the Herschel Space Observatory is presented for 61 nearby galaxies from the Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: A Far-Infrared Surv…
Transmission spectrum of Venus as a transiting exoplanet
David Ehrenreich, Alfred Vidal-Madjar, Thomas Widemann +6
On 5-6 June 2012, Venus will be transiting the Sun for the last time before 2117. This event is an unique opportunity to assess the feasibility of the atmospheric characterisation…
The Herschel Exploitation of Local Galaxy Andromeda (HELGA). I: Global far-infrared and sub-mm morphology
J. Fritz, G. Gentile, M. W. L. Smith +30
We have obtained Herschel images at five wavelengths from 100 to 500 micron of a ~5.5x2.5 degree area centred on the local galaxy M31 (Andromeda), our nearest neighbour spiral gala…
Feeding compact bulges and supermassive black holes with low angular-momentum cosmic gas at high redshift
Yohan Dubois, Christophe Pichon, Martin Haehnelt +4
We use cosmological hydrodynamical simulations to show that a significant fraction of the gas in high redshift rare massive halos falls nearly radially to their very centre on extr…
Particle acceleration at relativistic shock waves
Martin Lemoine, Guy Pelletier
Relativistic sources, e.g. gamma-ray bursts, pulsar wind nebulae and powerful active galactic nuclei produce relativistic outflows that lead to the formation of collisionless shock…
Spectral cutoffs in indirect dark matter searches
Christoph Weniger, Torsten Bringmann, Francesca Calore +1
Indirect searches for dark matter annihilation or decay products in the cosmic-ray spectrum are plagued by the question of how to disentangle a dark matter signal from the omnipres…
The HARPS search for southern extra-solar planets XXXI. The M-dwarf sample
X. Bonfils, X. Delfosse, S. Udry +11
(Abridged) Searching for planets around stars with different masses probes the outcome of planetary formation for different initial conditions. This drives observations of a sample…

R. C. Kennicutt, D. Calzetti, G. Aniano +40
The KINGFISH project (Key Insights on Nearby Galaxies: a Far-Infrared Survey with Herschel) is an imaging and spectroscopic survey of 61 nearby (d < 30 Mpc) galaxies, chosen to cov…
