The ATA Digital Processing Requirements are Driven by RFI Concerns

G. R. Harp

As a new generation radio telescope, the Allen Telescope Array (ATA) is a prototype for the square kilometer array (SKA). Here we describe recently developed design constraints for…

Resolved Debris Discs Around A Stars in the Herschel DEBRIS Survey

Mark Booth, Grant Kennedy, Bruce Sibthorpe +12

The majority of debris discs discovered so far have only been detected through infrared excess emission above stellar photospheres. While disc properties can be inferred from unres…

Submillimeter Follow-up of WISE-Selected Hyperluminous Galaxies

Jingwen Wu, Chao-Wei Tsai, Jack Sayers +20

We have used the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) to follow-up a sample of WISE-selected, hyperluminous galaxies, so called W1W2-dropout galaxies. This is a rare (~ 1000 all…

Alignment of the stellar spin with the orbits of a three-planet system

Roberto Sanchis-Ojeda, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Josh N. Winn +16

The Sun's equator and the planets' orbital planes are nearly aligned, which is presumably a consequence of their formation from a single spinning gaseous disk. For exoplanetary sys…

A Significant Population of Candidate New Members of the Rho Ophiuchi Cluster

Mary Barsony, Karl E. Haisch, Kenneth A. Marsh +1

We present a general method for identifying the pre-main-sequence population of any star-forming region, unbiased with respect to the presence or absence of disks, in contrast to s…

Early Science with SOFIA, the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy

E. T. Young, E. E. Becklin, P. M. Marcum +38

The Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) is an airborne observatory consisting of a specially modified Boeing 747SP with a 2.7-m telescope, flying at altitudes…
