Submillimeter Continuum Properties of Cold Dust in the Inner Disk and Outflows of M82

Lerothodi L. Leeuw, E. Ian Robson

Deep submillimeter (submm) continuum imaging observations of the starburst galaxy M82 are presented at 350, 450, 750 and 850 micron wavelengths, that were undertaken with the Submi…

The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey I. Star Forming Molecular Gas in Virgo Cluster Spiral Galaxies

C. D. Wilson, B. E. Warren, F. P. Israel +20

We present large-area maps of the CO J=3-2 emission obtained at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope for four spiral galaxies in the Virgo Cluster. We combine these data with publishe…

A New Feature in the Spectrum of the Superluminous LMC Supergiant HDE 269896

Mariela A. Corti, Nolan R. Walborn, Christopher J. Evans

We have found strong selective emission of the N II 5000A complex in the spectrum of the LMC hypergiant HDE 269896, ON9.7 Ia. Since this object also has anomalously strong He I…

The UKIDSS-2MASS Proper Motion Survey I: Ultracool dwarfs from UKIDSS DR4

N. R. Deacon, N. C. Hambly, R. R. King +1

The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) is the first of a new generation of infrared surveys. Here we combine the data from two UKIDSS components, the Large Area Survey (LAS) a…

The Wouthuysen-Field effect in a clumpy intergalactic medium

Jonathan Higgins, Avery Meiksin

We show that, due to the high optical depth of the intergalactic medium to Lyman-alpha photons before the Epoch of Reionization, the Lyman-alpha scattering rate responsible for the…

The environments of starburst and post-starburst galaxies at z=0.4-0.8

Bianca M. Poggianti, Alfonso Aragon-Salamanca, Dennis Zaritsky +16

Post-starburst (E+A or k+a) spectra, characterized by their exceptionally strong Balmer lines in absorption and the lack of emission lines, belong to galaxies in which the star for…
