High S/N Keck and Gemini AO imaging of Uranus during 2012-2014: New cloud patterns, increasing activity, and improved wind measurements

L. A. Sromovsky, I. de Pater, P. M. Fry +2

We imaged Uranus in the near infrared from 2012 into 2014, using the Keck/NIRC2 camera and Gemini/NIRI camera, both with adaptive optics. We obtained exceptional signal to noise ra…

Oxygen Abundance Measurements of SHIELD Galaxies

Nathalie C. Haurberg, John J. Salzer, John M. Cannon +1

We have derived oxygen abundances for 8 galaxies from the Survey of HI in Extremely Low-mass Dwarfs (SHIELD). The SHIELD survey is an ongoing study of very low-mass galaxies, with…

Spectroscopic Abundances in the Open Cluster, NGC 6819

Donald B. Lee-Brown, Barbara J. Anthony-Twarog, Constantine P. Deliyannis +2

High-dispersion spectra of 333 stars in the open cluster NGC 6819, obtained using the HYDRA spectrograph on the WIYN 3.5m telescope, have been analyzed to determine the abundances…

Record-breaking Storm Activity on Uranus in 2014

Imke de Pater, L. A. Sromovsky, P. M. Fry +3

In spite of an expected decline in convective activity following the 2007 equinox of Uranus, eight sizable storms were detected on the planet with the near-infrared camera NIRC2, c…
