Removing BAO-peak Shifts with Local Density Transforms

Nuala McCullagh, Mark C. Neyrinck, István Szapudi +1

Large-scale bulk flows in the Universe distort the initial density field, broadening the baryon-acoustic-oscillation (BAO) feature that was imprinted when baryons were strongly cou…

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a z=6.740 Galaxy behind the Bullet Cluster

Maruša Bradač, Eros Vanzella, Nicholas Hall +7

We present the first results of our spectroscopic follow-up of 6.5 < z < 10 candidate galaxies behind clusters of galaxies. We report the spectroscopic confirmation of an intrinsic…

Redshifts, Sample Purity, and BCG Positions for the Galaxy Cluster Catalog from the first 720 Square Degrees of the South Pole Telescope Survey

J. Song, A. Zenteno, B. Stalder +74

We present the results of the ground- and space-based optical and near-infrared (NIR) follow-up of 224 galaxy cluster candidates detected with the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in…

Core-collapse supernovae missed by optical surveys

S. Mattila, T. Dahlen, A. Efstathiou +7

We estimate the fraction of core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) that remain undetected by optical SN searches due to obscuration by large amounts of dust in their host galaxies. This…

Cosmic Flows surveys and CLUES simulations

H. M. Courtois, R. B. Tully

Cosmic Flows is a program to determine galaxy distances for 30,000 galaxies with systematic errors below 2%, almost ten times the number currently known and a five-fold improvement…

Multiwavelength Campaign on Mrk 509 X. Lower limit on the distance of the absorber from HST COS and STIS spectroscopy

N. Arav, D. Edmonds, B. Borguet +15

Active Galactic Nuclei often show evidence of photoionized outflows. A major uncertainty in models for these outflows is the distance () to the gas from the central black hole.…
