Detection of faint companions through stochastic speckle discrimination

Szymon Gladysz, Julian C. Christou

We propose a new post-processing technique for the detection of faint companions from a sequence of adaptive optics corrected short exposures. The algorithm exploits the difference…

Multiwavelength Observations of Markarian 421 in March 2001: an Unprecedented View on the X-ray/TeV Correlated Variability

G. Fossati, J. H. Buckley, I. H. Bond +26

(Abridged) We present a detailed analysis of week-long simultaneous observations of the blazar Mrk421 at 2-60 keV X-rays (RXTE) and TeV gamma-rays (Whipple and HEGRA) in 2001. The…

VLT / Infrared Integral Field Spectrometer Observations of Molecular Hydrogen Lines in the Knots in the Planetary Nebula NGC 7293 (the Helix Nebula)

M. Matsuura, A. K. Speck, M. D. Smith +6

Knots are commonly found in nearby planetary nebulae (PNe) and star forming regions. Within PNe, knots are often found to be associated with the brightest parts of the nebulae and…

Rotational Modulation of M/L Dwarfs due to Magnetic Spots

C. Lane, G. Hallinan, R. T. Zavala +7

We find periodic I-band variability in two ultracool dwarfs, TVLM 513-46546 and 2MASS J00361617+1821104, on either side of the M/L dwarf boundary. Both of these targets are short-p…

A search for CO+ in planetary nebulae

T. A. Bell, W. Whyatt, S. Viti +1

We have carried out a systematic search for the molecular ion CO+ in a sample of 8 protoplanetary and planetary nebulae in order to determine the origin of the unexpectedly strong…

Kinematics of the Broad Line Region in M81

Nick Devereux, Andrew Shearer

A new model is presented which explains the origin of the broad emission lines observed in the LINER/Seyfert nucleus of M81 in terms of a steady state spherically symmetric inflow,…

Deep optical observations of the interaction of the SS 433 microquasar jet with the W 50 radio continuum shell

P. Boumis, J. Meaburn, J. Alikakos +6

Four mosaics of deep, continuum-subtracted, CCD images have been obtained over the extensive galactic radio continuum shell, W 50, which surrounds the remarkable stellar system SS…

Sporadic Long-term Variability in Radio Activity from a Brown Dwarf

A. Antonova, J. G. Doyle, G. Hallinan +2

Radio activity has been observed in a large variety of stellar objects, including in the last few years, ultra-cool dwarfs. To explore the extent of long-term radio activity in ult…

Periodic Bursts of Coherent Radio Emission from an Ultracool Dwarf

G. Hallinan, S. Bourke, C. Lane +7

We report the detection of periodic (p = 1.96 hours) bursts of extremely bright, 100% circularly polarized, coherent radio emission from the M9 dwarf TVLM 513-46546. Simultaneous p…

Very High Energy Observations of Gamma-Ray Burst Locations with the Whipple Telescope

D. Horan, R. W. Atkins, H. M. Badran +56

Gamma-ray burst (GRB) observations at very high energies (VHE, E > 100 GeV) can impose tight constraints on some GRB emission models. Many GRB afterglow models predict a VHE compon…
