Measurements of the branching fractions and CP-asymmetries of B- --> D0_(CP) K- decays
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We present a study of the decay B- --> D0_(CP) K- and its charge conjugate, where D0_(CP) is reconstructed in CP-even, CP-odd, and non-CP flavor eigenstates, based on a sample of 2…
On the 2:1 Orbital Resonance in the HD 82943 Planetary System
Man Hoi Lee, R. Paul Butler, Debra A. Fischer +2
We present an analysis of the HD 82943 planetary system based on a radial velocity data set that combines new measurements obtained with the Keck telescope and the CORALIE measurem…
Search for rare quark-annihilation decays, B --> Ds(*) Phi
The BABAR Collaboration, B. Aubert
We report on searches for B- --> Ds- Phi and B- --> Ds*- Phi. In the context of the Standard Model, these decays are expected to be highly suppressed since they proceed through ann…
Supersymmetry Parameter Analysis: SPA Convention and Project
J. A. Aguilar-Saavedra, A. Ali, B. C. Allanach +122
High-precision analyses of supersymmetry parameters aim at reconstructing the fundamental supersymmetric theory and its breaking mechanism. A well defined theoretical framework is…
Kinematics and Metallicity of M31 Red Giants: The Giant Southern Stream and Discovery of a Second Cold Component at R = 20 kpc
J. S. Kalirai, P. Guhathakurta, K. M. Gilbert +4
We present spectroscopic observations of red giant branch (RGB) stars in the Andromeda spiral galaxy (M31), acquired with the DEIMOS instrument on the Keck II 10-m telescope. The t…
GRB 050408: An Atypical Gamma-Ray Burst as a Probe of an Atypical Galactic Environment
R. J. Foley, D. A. Perley, D. Pooley +14
The bright GRB 050408 was localized by HETE-II near local midnight, enabling an impressive ground-based followup effort as well as space-based followup from Swift. The Swift data f…
Two Tunnels to Inflation
Anthony Aguirre, Matthew C. Johnson
We investigate the formation via tunneling of inflating (false-vacuum) bubbles in a true-vacuum background, and the reverse process. Using effective potentials from the junction co…
The Mass Assembly History of Field Galaxies: Detection of an Evolving Mass Limit for Star Forming Galaxies
Kevin Bundy, Richard S. Ellis, Christopher J. Conselice +7
We characterize the mass-dependent evolution in a large sample of more than 8,000 galaxies using spectroscopic redshifts drawn from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey in the range 0.…
On the Origin of [OII] Emission in Red Sequence and Post-starburst Galaxies
Renbin Yan, Jeffrey A. Newman, S. M. Faber +3
We investigate the emission-line properties of galaxies with red rest-frame colors using spectra from SDSS DR4. Emission lines are detected in more than half of the red galaxies. W…
The Dependence of Halo Clustering on Halo Formation History, Concentration, and Occupation
Risa H. Wechsler, Andrew R. Zentner, James S. Bullock +2
We investigate the dependence of dark matter halo clustering on halo formation time, density profile concentration, and subhalo occupation number, using high-resolution numerical s…
The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: Clustering of Galaxies as a Function of Luminosity at z=1
Alison L. Coil, Jeffrey A. Newman, Michael C. Cooper +4
We measure the clustering of DEEP2 galaxies at z=1 as a function of luminosity on scales 0.1 Mpc/h to 20 Mpc/h. Drawing from a parent catalog of 25,000 galaxies at 0.7<z<1.3 in the…
High Metallicity, Photoionised Gas in Intergalactic Large-Scale Filaments
Bastien Aracil, Todd M. Tripp, David V. Bowen +3
We present high-resolution UV spectra of absorption-line systems toward the low-z QSO HS0624+6907 (z=0.3700). Coupled with spectroscopic galaxy redshifts, we find that many of thes…
Deep Photometry of Andromeda Reveals Striking Similarities in the Tidal Stream and Spheroid Populations
Thomas M. Brown, Ed Smith, Puragra Guhathakurta +5
We present a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) for a field in the giant tidal stream of the Andromeda galaxy (M31). These observations, taken with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on th…
Angular Momentum Transport by Gravity Waves in the Solar Interior
Tamara M. Rogers, Gary A. Glatzmaier
We present self-consistent numerical simulations of the sun's convection zone and radiative interior using a two-dimensional model of its equatorial plane. The background reference…
An Overdensity of Galaxies near the Most Distant Radio-Loud Quasar
W. Zheng, R. Overzier, R. J. Bouwens +41
A five square arcminute region around the luminous radio-loud quasar SDSS J0836+0054 (z=5.8) hosts a wealth of associated galaxies, characterized by very red (1.3 < i_775 - z_{850}…
Cosmic rays, lithium abundance and excess entropy in galaxy clusters
Biman B. Nath, Piero Madau, Joseph Silk
We consider the production of Li in spallation reactions by cosmic rays in order to explain the observed abundance in halo metal-poor stars. We show that heating of ambient gas…
The Evolution of Rest-Frame K-band Properties of Early-Type Galaxies from z=1 to the Present
A. van der Wel, M. Franx, P. G. van Dokkum +3
We measure the evolution of the rest-frame K-band Fundamental Plane from z=1 to the present by using IRAC imaging of a sample of early-type galaxies in the Chandra Deep Field-South…
