Gamma-ray Bursts: Light on the distant Universe
Jonathan Grindlay
Observations of a long-lasting Gamma-ray burst, one that has the brightest optical counterpart yet discovered, challenge theoretical understanding of these bursts but may enhance t…
FIRST "Winged" and X-shaped Radio Source Candidates: II. New Redshifts
C. C. Cheung, Stephen E. Healey, Hermine Landt +2
We report optical spectroscopic observations of X-shaped radio sources with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope and Multiple-Mirror Telescope, focused on the sample of candidates from the F…
Stellar Ages from Stellar Rotation
Soren Meibom
Our ability to determine stellar ages from measurements of stellar rotation, hinges on how well we can measure the dependence of rotation on age for stars of different masses. Rota…
Infall and rotation motions in the HH 111 protostellar system: A flattened envelope in transition to a disk?
Chin-Fei Lee, Yao-Yuan Mao, Bo Reipurth
We have mapped the central region of the HH 111 protostellar system in 1.33 mm continuum, C18O(J=2-1), 13CO (J=2-1), and SO (N_J=5_6-4_5) emission at ~3" resolution with the Submil…
Search for Primordial Black Holes with SGARFACE
M. Schroedter, F. Krennrich, S. LeBohec +7
The Short GAmma Ray Front Air Cherenkov Experiment (SGARFACE) uses the Whipple 10 m telescope to search for bursts of rays. SGARFACE is sensitive to bursts with duration from a…
Large grains in disks around young stars: ATCA observations of WW Cha, RU Lup, and CS Cha
Dave Lommen, Sarah Maddison, Chris Wright +3
Grains in disks around young stars grow from interstellar submicron sizes to planetesimals over the course of several Myr. Thermal emission of large grains or pebbles can be best o…
The solar wind charge-transfer X-ray emission in the 1/4 keV energy range: inferences on Local Bubble hot gas at low Z
D. Koutroumpa, R. Lallement, J. C. Raymond +1
We present calculations of the heliospheric SWCX emission spectra and their contributions in the ROSAT 1/4 keV band. We compare our results with the soft X-ray diffuse background (…
Cosmological Perturbations at Second Order and Recombination Perturbed
Leonardo Senatore, Svetlin Tassev, Matias Zaldarriaga
We derive the full set of second-order equations governing the evolution of cosmological perturbations, including the effects of the first-order electron number density perturbatio…
Evolution of Magnetic Fields in High Mass Star Formation: SMA dust polarization image of the UCHII region G5.89-0.39
Ya-Wen Tang, Paul T. P. Ho, Josep Miquel Girart +3
We report high angular resolution (3") Submillimeter Array (SMA) observations of the molecular cloud associated with the Ultra-Compact HII region G5.89-0.39. Imaged dust continuum…
The Environments of Active Galactic Nuclei within the zCOSMOS Density Field
J. D. Silverman, K. Kovac, C. Knobel +58
The impact of environment on AGN activity up to z~1 is assessed by utilizing a mass-selected sample of galaxies from the 10k catalog of the zCOSMOS spectroscopic redshift survey. W…
The formation of the black hole in the X-ray binary system V404 Cyg
J. C. A. Miller-Jones, P. G. Jonker, G. Nelemans +5
Using new and archival radio data, we have measured the proper motion of the black hole X-ray binary V404 Cyg to be 9.2+/-0.3 mas/yr. Combined with the systemic radial velocity fro…
Efficient formation of ground state ultracold molecules via STIRAP from the continuum at a Feshbach resonance
Elena Kuznetsova, Susanne F. Yelin, Marko Gacesa +2
We develop a complete theoretical description of photoassociative Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage (STIRAP) near a Feshbach resonance in a thermal atomic gas. We show that it is…
Phase resolved spectroscopy of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during the 2008 outburst
R. Cornelisse, P. D'Avanzo, T. Munoz-Darias +6
aims: We obtained phase-resolved spectroscopy of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during its outburst in 2008 to find a signature of the donor star, constrai…
Chandra observations of the galaxy group AWM 5: cool core re-heating and thermal conduction suppression
A. Baldi, W. Forman, C. Jones +4
We present an analysis of a 40 ksec Chandra observation of the galaxy group AWM 5. It has a small ( kpc) dense cool core with a temperature of keV and the temperat…
A Characteristic Division Between the Fueling of Quasars and Seyferts: Five Simple Tests
Philip F. Hopkins, Lars Hernquist
Given the existence of the M_BH-sigma relation, models of self-regulated black hole (BH) growth require both a fuel supply and growth of the host bulge to deepen the potential, or…
Detection of the second eclipsing high mass X-ray binary in M 33
W. Pietsch, F. Haberl, T. J. Gaetz +7
Chandra data of the X-ray source [PMH2004] 47 were obtained in the ACIS Survey of M 33 (ChASeM33) in 2006. During one of the observations, the source varied from a high state to a…
