Deriving Metallicities from Calcium Triplet Spectroscopy in combination with Near Infrared Photometry
F. Mauro, C. Moni Bidin, D. Geisler +7
Context. [...] One of the most efficient methods is the measurement of the equivalent width (EW) of the Calcium II Triplet (CaT), corrected for the luminosity and temperature effec…
Self-Calibration of BICEP1 Three-Year Data and Constraints on Astrophysical Polarization Rotation
J. P. Kaufman, N. J. Miller, M. Shimon +33
Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) polarimeters aspire to measure the faint -mode signature predicted to arise from inflationary gravitational waves. They also have the potential…
Flickering of 1.3 cm Sources in Sgr B2: Towards a Solution to the Ultracompact HII Region Lifetime Problem
C. G. De Pree, T. Peters, M. -M. Mac Low +6
Accretion flows onto massive stars must transfer mass so quickly that they are themselves gravitationally unstable, forming dense clumps and filaments. These density perturbations…
Radio-loud AGNs at high redshifts and the cosmic microwave background
G. Ghisellini, A. Celotti, F. Tavecchio +2
We discuss how the interaction between the electrons in a relativistic jet and the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) affects the observable properties of radio-loud AGN at early ep…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Abundance ratios in the inner-disk open clusters Trumpler 20, NGC 4815, NGC 6705
L. Magrini, S. Randich, D. Romano +50
Open clusters are key tools to study the spatial distribution of abundances in the disk and their evolution with time. Using the first release of stellar parameters and abundances…
A Molecular Line Scan in the Hubble Deep Field North: Constraints on the CO Luminosity Function and the Cosmic H2 Density
F. Walter, R. Decarli, M. Sargent +19
We present direct constraints on the CO luminosity function at high redshift and the resulting cosmic evolution of the molecular gas density, (z), based on a blind mole…
A molecular line scan in the Hubble Deep Field North
R. Decarli, F. Walter, C. Carilli +20
We present a molecular line scan in the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) that covers the entire 3mm window (79-115 GHz) using the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. Our CO redshif…
The Atlas3D project -- XXVII. Cold Gas and the Colours and Ages of Early-type Galaxies
L. M. Young, N. Scott, P. Serra +22
We present a study of the cold gas contents of the Atlas3D early-type galaxies, in the context of their optical colours, near-UV colours, and Hβ absorption line strengths. Early-ty…
Extensive study of HD 25558, a long-period double-lined binary with two SPB components
Á. Sódor, P. De Cat, D. J. Wright +33
We carried out an extensive observational study of the Slowly Pulsating B (SPB) star, HD 25558. The ~2000 spectra obtained at different observatories, the ground-based and MOST sat…
HOPS 136: An Edge-On Orion Protostar Near the End of Envelope Infall
William J. Fischer, S. Thomas Megeath, John J. Tobin +10
Edge-on protostars are valuable for understanding the disk and envelope properties of embedded young stellar objects, since the disk, envelope, and envelope cavities are all distin…
NGC 5824: a luminous outer halo globular cluster with an intrinsic abundance spread
G. S. Da Costa, E. V. Held, I. Saviane
We present a detailed study of the strengths of the calcium triplet absorption lines in the spectra of a large sample of red giant members of the luminous outer Galactic halo globu…
Can eccentric debris disks be long-lived? A first numerical investigation and application to Reticuli
V. Faramaz, H. Beust, P. Thébault +13
Imaging of debris disks has found evidence for both eccentric and offset disks. One hypothesis is that these provide evidence for massive perturbers that sculpt the observed struct…
Systematic properties of decelerating relativistic jets in low-luminosity radio galaxies
R. A. Laing, A. H. Bridle
We model the kiloparsec-scale synchrotron emission from jets in 10 Fanaroff-Riley Class I radio galaxies for which we have sensitive, high-resolution imaging and polarimetry from t…
CO(1-0) survey of high-z radio galaxies: alignment of molecular halo gas with distant radio sources
B. H. C. Emonts, R. P. Norris, I. Feain +19
We present a CO(1-0) survey for cold molecular gas in a representative sample of 13 high-z radio galaxies (HzRGs) at 1.4<z<2.8, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We dete…
The mass distribution of clumps within infrared dark clouds. A Large APEX Bolometer Camera study
Laura Gomez, Friedrich Wyrowski, Frederic Schuller +2
We present an analysis of the dust continuum emission at 870 um in order to investigate the mass distribution of clumps within infrared dark clouds (IRDCs). We map six IRDCs with t…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: Reevaluation of the parameters of the open cluster Trumpler 20 using photometry and spectroscopy
P. Donati, T. Cantat-Gaudin, A. Bragaglia +34
Trumpler 20 is an old open cluster (OC) located toward the Galactic centre, at about 3 kpc from the Sun and 7 kpc from the Galactic centre. Its position makes this cluster pa…
A new procedure for defining a homogenous line-list for solar-type stars
S. G. Sousa, N. C. Santos, V. Adibekyan +9
Context. The homogenization of the stellar parameters is an important goal for large observational spectroscopic surveys, but it is very difficult to achieve it because of the dive…
Prompt emission of GRB 121217A from gamma-rays to the NIR
