We review the capabilities of the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED, http://ned.ipac.caltech.edu) for information retrieval and knowledge discovery in the context of a globally…
PLANCK: systematic effects induced by periodic fluctuations of arbitrary shape
Aniello Mennella, Marco Bersanelli, Carlo Burigana +4
A fundamental requirement in the new generation of high resolution Cosmic Microwave Background imaging experiments is a strict control of systematic errors that must be kept at mic…
An X-ray Selected Galaxy Cluster at z=1.11 in the Rosat Deep Cluster Survey
S. A. Stanford, B. P. Holden, P. Rosati +4
We report the discovery of an X-ray luminous galaxy cluster at z =1.11. RDCS J0910+5422 was selected as an X-ray cluster candidate in the ROSAT Deep Cluster Survey on the basis of…
Tomographic Separation of Composite Spectra. VIII. The Physical Properties of the Massive Compact Binary in the Triple Star System HD 36486 (delta Orionis A)
James A. Harvin, Douglas R. Gies, William G. Bagnuolo +2
Double-lined spectroscopic orbital elements have recently been found for the central binary in the massive triple, delta Orionis A based on radial velocities from cross-correlation…
Interferometric Mapping of Magnetic Fields in Star-forming Regions II. NGC2024 FIR5
Shih-Ping Lai, Richard M. Crutcher, Jose M. Girart +1
We present the first interferometric polarization maps of the NGC2024 FIR5 molecular core obtained with the BIMA array at approximately 2 arcsec resolution. We measure an average p…
X-ray temperature and morphology of z>0.8 clusters of galaxies
B. Holden, S. A. Stanford, P. Rosati +4
We discuss our current progress in studying a sample of z>0.8 clusters of galaxies from the ROSAT Distant Cluster Survey. To date, we have Chandra observations for four of the ten…
Detection of an inner torus in the Proto planetary Nebulae OH231.8+4.2
J. -F. Desmurs, C. Sanchez Contreras, V. Bujarrabal +2
We performed the first VLBI observations of the SiO v=1 and v=2 J=1--0 masers in a Proto Planetary Nebula OH 231.8+4.2 (also known as the Rotten Egg nebula), at milliarcsecond reso…
Optical and Near-IR Imaging of Ultra Steep Spectrum Radio Sources - The K-z diagram of radio and optically selected galaxies
Carlos De Breuck, Wil van Breugel, Adam Stanford +3
We present optical and/or near-IR images of 128 ultra steep spectrum (USS) radio sources. Roughly half of the objects are identified in the optical images (R <~ 24), while in the n…
The Distance to SN 1999em in NGC 1637 from the Expanding Photosphere Method
Douglas C. Leonard, Alexei V. Filippenko, Elinor L. Gates +13
We present 30 optical spectra and 49 photometric epochs sampling the first 517 days after discovery of supernova (SN) 1999em, and derive its distance through the expanding photosph…
