Multi-wavelength Polarimetry and Variability Study of M87 Jet
Sayali S Avachat, Eric S Perlman, William B Sparks +2
We present a high resolution polarimetry and variability study of the M87 jet using VLA and HST data taken during 2002 to 2008. Both data-sets have an angular resolution as high as…
The slim-disk state of the ultraluminous X-ray source in M83
Roberto Soria, K. D. Kuntz, Knox S. Long +3
The transient ULX in M83 that went into outburst in or shortly before 2010 is still active. Our new XMM-Newton spectra show that it has a curved spectrum typical of the upper end o…
Zooming In on the Progenitors of Superluminous Supernovae With the HST
R. Lunnan, R. Chornock, E. Berger +25
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) rest-frame ultraviolet imaging of the host galaxies of 16 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe), including 11 events from the Pan-S…
Detection of Galactic Center source G2 at 3.8 m during periapse passage
Gunther Witzel, Andrea M. Ghez, Mark R. Morris +14
We report new observations of the Galactic Center source G2 from the W. M. Keck Observatory. G2 is a dusty red object associated with gas that shows tidal interactions as it nears…
The Optical Luminosity Function of Gamma-ray Bursts deduced from ROTSE-III Observations
X. H. Cui, X. F. Wu, J. J. Wei +16
We present the optical luminosity function (LF) of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) estimated from a uniform sample of 58 GRBs from observations with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Ex…
Multiwavelength campaign on Mrk 509 XIV. Chandra HETGS spectra
J. S. Kaastra, J. Ebrero, N. Arav +14
We present in this paper the results of a 270 ks Chandra HETGS observation in the context of a large multiwavelength campaign on the Seyfert galaxy Mrk 509. The HETGS spectrum allo…
