Interferometry of class I methanol masers, statistics and the distance scale

M. A. Voronkov, S. L. Breen, S. P. Ellingsen +1

The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) participated in a number of survey programs to search for and image common class I methanol masers (at 36 and 44 GHz) with high angular…

The TOP-SCOPE survey of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps: Survey overview and results of an exemplar source, PGCC G26.53+0.17

Tie Liu, Kee-Tae Kim, Mika Juvela +11

The low dust temperatures (<14 K) of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCCs) make them ideal targets to probe the initial conditions and very early phase of star formation. TOP-SCOPE i…

Eddington's Demon: Inferring Galaxy Mass Functions and other Distributions from Uncertain Data

Danail Obreschkow, Steven G. Murray, Aaron S. G. Robotham +1

We present a general modified maximum likelihood (MML) method for inferring generative distribution functions from uncertain and biased data. The MML estimator is identical to, but…

The MASIV Survey IV: relationship between intra-day scintillation and intrinsic variability of radio AGNs

J. Y. Koay, J. -P. Macquart, D. L. Jauncey +8

We investigate the relationship between 5 GHz interstellar scintillation (ISS) and 15 GHz intrinsic variability of compact, radio-selected AGNs drawn from the Microarcsecond Scinti…
