A Millimetre/Submillimetre Polarisation Survey of Compact Flat-Spectrum Radio Sources

R. Nartallo, W. K. Gear, A. G. Murray +2

We present the results of the first survey and monitoring study of the linear polarisation properties of compact, flat-spectrum radio sources at millimetre/submillimetre wavelength…

Testing the clump model of SiO maser emission

M. D. Gray, R. J. Ivison, E. M. L. Humphreys +1

Building on the detection of J=7-6 SiO maser emission in both the v=1 and v=2 vibrational states towards the symbiotic Mira, R Aquarii, we have used the James Clerk Maxwell Telesco…

Radio galaxies and structure formation

J. A. Peacock

This review discusses three ways in which radio galaxies and other high-redshift objects can give us information on the nature and statistics of cosmological inhomogeneities, and h…

Genus Statistics of the Virgo N-body simulations and the 1.2-Jy Redshift Survey

V. Springel, S. D. M. White, J. M. Colberg +8

We study the topology of the Virgo N-body simulations and compare it to the 1.2-Jy redshift survey of IRAS galaxies by means of the genus statistic. Four high-resolution simulation…

Dark Galaxies -- the Dominant Population?

M. R. S. Hawkins

This paper argues that there is a large population of dark galaxies which reveals its presence by the gravitational lensing of quasars, and outnumbers normal galaxies by around 3:1…

Distance indicators based on the luminosity-profile shapes of early-type galaxies--a reply

C. K. Young, M. J. Currie, .

In a recent paper, Binggeli & Jerjen (1998) question the value of the extra- galactic distance indicators presented by Young & Currie (1994 & 1995) and state that they have refuted…
