Near Earth Asteroids with measurable Yarkovsky effect
D. Farnocchia, S. R. Chesley, D. Vokrouhlicky +2
We seek evidence of the Yarkovsky effect among Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) by measuring the Yarkovsky-related orbital drift from the orbital fit. To prevent the occurrence of unrel…
Development of Lumped Element Kinetic Inductance Detectors for NIKA
M. Roesch, A. Benoit, A. Bideaud +10
Lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors(LEKIDs) have recently shown considerable promise as direct absorption mm-wavelength detectors for astronomical applications. One major r…
General relativistic observables of the GRAIL mission
Slava G. Turyshev, Viktor T. Toth, Mikhail V. Sazhin
We present a realization of astronomical relativistic reference frames in the solar system and its application to the GRAIL mission. We model the necessary spacetime coordinate tra…
Centauri A in the far infrared
R. Liseau, B. Montesinos, G. Olofsson +15
Chromospheres and coronae are common phenomena on solar-type stars. Understanding the energy transfer to these heated atmospheric layers requires direct access to the relevant empi…
CLASH: The enhanced lensing efficiency of the highly elongated merging cluster MACS J0416.1-2403
A. Zitrin, M. Meneghetti, K. Umetsu +21
We perform a strong-lensing analysis of the merging galaxy cluster MACS J0416.1-2403 (M0416; z=0.42) in recent CLASH/HST observations. We identify 70 new multiple images and candid…
Dead, Undead and Zombie Zones in Protostellar Disks as a Function of Stellar Mass
Subhanjoy Mohanty, Barbara Ercolano, Neal J. Turner
We investigate the viability of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in accretion disks around both solar-type stars and very low mass stars. In particular, we determine the dis…
Inferring the mass of sub-millimetre galaxies by exploiting their gravitational magnification of background galaxies
H. Hildebrandt, L. van Waerbeke, D. Scott +25
Dust emission at sub-millimetre wavelengths allows us to trace the early phases of star formation in the Universe. In order to understand the physical processes involved in this mo…
High Resolution Infrared Imaging & Spectroscopy of the Z Canis Majoris System During Quiescence & Outburst
Sasha Hinkley, Lynne Hillenbrand, Ben R. Oppenheimer +21
We present adaptive optics photometry and spectra in the JHKL-bands along with high spectral resolution K-band spectroscopy for each component of the Z Canis Majoris system. Our hi…
Proton temperature anisotropy and magnetic reconnection in the solar wind: effects of kinetic instabilities on current sheet stability
Lorenzo Matteini, Simone Landi, Marco Velli +1
We investigate the role of kinetic instabilities driven by a proton anisotropy on the onset of magnetic reconnection by means of 2-D hybrid simulations. The collisionless tearing o…
On The Relative Sizes of Planets Within Kepler Multiple Candidate Systems
David R. Ciardi, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Eric B. Ford +5
We present a study of the relative sizes of planets within the multiple candidate systems discovered with the mission. We have compared the size of each planet to the size…
Rotating Radio Transients and Their Place Among Pulsars
S. Burke-Spolaor
Six years ago, the discovery of Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) marked what appeared to be a new type of sparsely-emitting pulsar. Since 2006, more than 70 of these objects have…
Spiral Arms in the Asymmetrically Illuminated Disk of MWC 758 and Constraints on Giant Planets
C. A. Grady, T. Muto, J. Hashimoto +71
We present the first near-IR scattered light detection of the transitional disk associated with the Herbig Ae star MWC 758 using data obtained as part of the Strategic Exploration…
Ground-based near-infrared observations of water vapour in the Venus troposphere
S. Chamberlain, J. A. Bailey, D. Crisp +1
We present a study of water vapour in the Venus troposphere obtained by modelling specific water vapour absorption bands within the 1.18 μm window. We compare the results with the…
The Co-ordinated Radio and Infrared Survey for High-Mass Star Formation - II. Source Catalogue
C. R. Purcell, M. G. Hoare, W. D. Cotton +27
The CORNISH project is the highest resolution radio continuum survey of the Galactic plane to date. It is the 5 GHz radio continuum part of a series of multi-wavelength surveys tha…
Constraints on Cosmology from the Cosmic Microwave Background Power Spectrum of the 2500 SPT-SZ Survey
Z. Hou, C. L. Reichardt, K. T. Story +49
We explore extensions to the CDM cosmology using measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) from the recent SPT-SZ survey, along with data from WMAP7 and measurements…
Testing General Relativity with Low-Frequency, Space-Based Gravitational-Wave Detectors
Jonathan R. Gair, Michele Vallisneri, Shane L. Larson +1
We review the tests of general relativity that will become possible with space-based gravitational-wave detectors operating in the ~0.01mHz - 1Hz low-frequency band. The fundamenta…
Systematic effects in large-scale angular power spectra of photometric quasars and implications for constraining primordial nongaussianity
Anthony R. Pullen, Christopher M. Hirata
Primordial non-Gaussianity of local type is predicted to lead to enhanced halo clustering on very large scales. Photometric quasars, which can be seen from cosmological redshifts z…
Scientific verification of Faraday Rotation Modulators: Detection of diffuse polarized Galactic emission
