The Orion Nebula in the mid-IR
M. Robberto, S. V. W. Beckwith, N. Panagia +6
We present two wide-field (5'x5'), diffraction limited, broad-band 10 and 20 micron images of the Orion Nebula, plus six 7-13 micron narrow-band images of BN/KL taken at the 3.8m U…
Limit on the B0->rho0rho0 Branching Fraction and Implications for the CKM Angle alpha

Measurement of Branching Fractions and Charge Asymmetries for Exclusive B Decays to Charmonium
B. Aubert, BABAR Collaboration
We report measurements of branching fractions and charge asymmetries of exclusive decays of neutral and charged B mesons into two-body final states containing a charmonium state an…
The Importance of Intergalactic Structure to Gravitationally Lensed Quasars
R. Benton Metcalf
Image flux ratio anomalies have been attributed to substructures within the gravitational lens and to small mass halos (M <~ 10^10 Msun) in intergalactic space. In this paper, anal…
Search for a Charged Partner of the X(3872) in the B Meson Decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0
B. Aubert, BaBar Collaboration
We search for a charged partner of the X(3872) in the decay B --> X- K, X- --> J/psi pi- pi0, using 234 million BBbar events collected at the Y(4S) resonance with the BaBar detecto…
Stellar Bowshocks in the Northern Arm of the Galactic Center: More Members and Kinematics of the Massive Star Population
A. M. Tanner, A. M. Ghez, M. Morris +1
We present new 2.2 micron diffraction-limited images from the W. M. Keck 10 m and Gemini 8 m telescopes of the cool Galactic Center sources, IRS 1W, 5, 8, 10W, and 21 along with ne…
The Deep2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: Evolution of Close Galaxy Pairs and Major-Merger Rates Up to z ~ 1.2
Lihwai Lin, David C. Koo, Christopher N. A. Willmer +10
We derive the close, kinematic pair fraction and merger rate up to z ~ 1.2 from the initial data of the DEEP2 Redshift Survey. Assuming a mild luminosity evolution, the number of c…
Branching Fractions and CP Asymmetries in B0 -> pi0pi0, B+ -> pi+pi0 and B+ -> K+pi0 Decays and Isospin Analysis of the B -> pipi System
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
Based on a sample of 227 million BBbar pairs collected by the BaBar detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B Factory at SLAC, we measure the branching fraction B(B0 -> pi0pi0) =…
The Luminosity Functions of the Galaxy Cluster MS1054-0321 at z=0.83 based on ACS Photometry
Tomotsugu Goto, Marc Postman, Nicholas J. G. Cross +41
We present new measurements of the galaxy luminosity function (LF) and its dependence on local galaxy density, color, morphology, and clustocentric radius for the massive z=0.83 cl…
Finite size scaling of the correlation length above the upper critical dimension
Jeff L. Jones, A. P. Young
We show numerically that correlation length at the critical point in the five-dimensional Ising model varies with system size L as L^{5/4}, rather than proportional to L as in stan…
Simulations of Dust in Interacting Galaxies
Patrik Jonsson, T. J. Cox, Joel R. Primack
A new Monte-Carlo radiative-transfer code, Sunrise, is used to study the effects of dust in N-body/hydrodynamic simulations of interacting galaxies. Dust has a profound effect on t…
The Ages of Elliptical Galaxies from Mid-Infrared Emission
Pasquale Temi, William G. Mathews, Fabrizio Brighenti
The mid-infrared (10-20 um) luminosity of elliptical galaxies is dominated by the integrated emission from circumstellar dust in red giant stars. As a single stellar population evo…
Confirmation of Errors in Hipparcos Parallaxes from HST/FGS Astrometry of the Pleiades
David R. Soderblom, Ed Nelan, G. Fritz Benedict +4
We present absolute trigonometric parallaxes and relative proper motions for three members of the Pleiades star cluster, obtained with HST's Fine Guidance Sensor 1r, a white-light…
The Transformation of Cluster Galaxies at Intermeidate Redshift
N. L. Homeier, R. Demarco, P. Rosati +17
We combine imaging data from the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) with VLT/FORS optical spectroscopy to study the properties of star-forming galaxies in the z=0.837 cluster CL0152…
A Resolved Debris Disk around the G2V star HD 107146
D. R. Ardila, D. A. Golimowski, J. E. Krist +6
We present resolved scattered-light images of the debris disk around HD 107146, a G2 star 28.5 pc from the Sun. This is the first debris disk to be resolved in scattered light arou…
The Pearcey Process
Craig A. Tracy, Harold Widom
The extended Airy kernel describes the space-time correlation functions for the Airy process, which is the limiting process for a polynuclear growth model. The Airy functions thems…
Chain Inflation in the Landscape: "Bubble Bubble Toil and Trouble"
Katherine Freese, Douglas Spolyar
In the model of Chain Inflation, a sequential chain of coupled scalar fields drives inflation. We consider a multidimensional potential with a large number of bowls, or local minim…

An Off-Axis Model for GRB 031203
Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, Jonathan Granot, Chryssa Kouveliotou +3
The low luminosity radio emission of the unusually faint GRB 031203 has been argued to support the idea of a class of intrinsically sub-energetic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), currently…
The Centers of Early-Type Galaxies with HST. V. New WFPC2 Photometry
