Direct Evidence for an Enhancement of Helium in Giant Stars in Omega Centauri
A. K. Dupree, Jay Strader, Graeme H. Smith
The double main sequence identified in the globular cluster Omega Centauri has been interpreted using isochrones to indicate a large variation in the abundance of helium. If true,…
Water in Star-Forming Regions with the Herschel Space Observatory (WISH): Overview of key program and first results
E. F. van Dishoeck, L. E. Kristensen, A. O. Benz +12
`Water In Star-forming regions with Herschel' (WISH) is a key program on the Herschel Space Observatory designed to probe the physical and chemical structure of young stellar objec…
Transitional and Pre-Transitional disks: Gap Opening by Multiple Planets?
Zhaohuan Zhu, Richard P. Nelson, Lee Hartmann +2
We use 2D hydrodynamic simulations of viscous disks to examine whether dynamically-interacting multiple giant planets can explain the large gaps (spanning over one order of magnitu…
The Submillimeter Array 1.3 mm line survey of Arp 220
S. Martin, M. Krips, J. Martin-Pintado +7
We present the first aperture synthesis unbiased spectral line survey toward an extragalactic object. The survey covered the 40 GHz frequency range between 202 and 242 GHz of the 1…
Scaling Rrelation in two situations of extreme mergers
Elena Rasia, Pasquale Mazzotta, August Evrard +3
Clusters of galaxies are known to be dynamically active systems, yet X-ray studies of the low redshift population exhibit tight scaling laws. In this work, we extend previous studi…
The Optical Afterglow and z=0.92 Early-type Host Galaxy of the Short GRB 100117A
Wen-fai Fong, Edo Berger, Ryan Chornock +6
We present the discovery of the optical afterglow and early-type host galaxy of the short-duration GRB 100117A. The faint afterglow is detected 8.3 hr after the burst with r_AB = 2…
1.2 Meter Shielded Cassegrain Antenna for Close-Packed Radio Interferometer
Patrick M. Koch, Philippe Raffin, Yau-De Huang +17
Interferometric millimeter observations of the cosmic microwave background and clusters of galaxies with arcmin resolutions require antenna arrays with short spacings. Having all a…
Do spectra improve distance measurements of Type Ia supernovae?
Stéphane Blondin, Kaisey S. Mandel, Robert P. Kirshner
[Abridged] We investigate the use of a wide variety of spectroscopic measurements to determine distances to low-redshift Type Ia supernovae (SN Ia). We consider linear models for p…
Subtraction of point sources from interferometric radio images through an algebraic forward modeling scheme
G. Bernardi, D. A. Mitchell, S. M. Ord +4
We present a method for subtracting point sources from interferometric radio images via forward modeling of the instrument response and involving an algebraic nonlinear minimizatio…
