New Hubble Space Telescope Discoveries of Type Ia Supernovae at z > 1: Narrowing Constraints on the Early Behavior of Dark Energy
Adam G. Riess, Louis-Gregory Strolger, Stefano Casertano +18
We have discovered 21 new Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and have used them to trace the history of cosmic expansion over the last 10 billion yea…
A Spectroscopic Study of Nuclear Processing and Production of Anomalously Strong Lines in the Crab Nebula
G. M. MacAlpine, T. C. Ecklund, W. R. Lester +2
We present and discuss correlations for optical and near-infrared (5500-10030 angstroms) line intensity measurements at many positions in the Crab Nebula. These correlations sugges…
Multifrequency variability of the blazar AO 0235+164. The WEBT campaign in 2004-2005 and long-term SED analysis
C. M. Raiteri, M. Villata, M. Kadler +3
A huge multiwavelength campaign targeting the blazar AO 0235+164 was organized by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) in 2003-2005 to study the variability properties of the so…
Long gamma-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae have different environments
A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan, L. Strolger +30
When massive stars exhaust their fuel they collapse and often produce the extraordinarily bright explosions known as core-collapse supernovae. On occasion, this stellar collapse al…
Testing the inverse-Compton catastrophe scenario in the intra-day variable blazar S5 0716+71. I. Simultaneous broadband observations during November 2003
L. Ostorero, S. J. Wagner, J. Gracia +6
Some intra-day variable, compact extra-galactic radio sources show brightness temperatures severely exceeding 10^{12} K, the limit set by catastrophic inverse-Compton (IC) cooling…
Origin of Structures in Wolf-Rayet Winds: FUSE Observations of WR 135
S. V. Marchenko, A. F. J. Moffat, N. St-Louis +1
We report the detection with FUSE of strong, highly blue-shifted absorption features appearing in the absorption troughs of practically all major P Cygni profiles in the presumably…
