Distances to Galactic methanol masers
K. L. J. Rygl, A. Brunthaler, K. M. Menten +2
We present the first EVN parallax measurements of 6.7 GHz methanol masers in star forming regions of the Galaxy. The 6.7 GHz methanol maser transition is a very valuable astrometri…
The mass of the black hole in Centaurus A from SINFONI AO-assisted integral-field observations of stellar kinematics
Michele Cappellari, N. Neumayer, J. Reunanen +3
We present a determination of the mass of the supermassive black hole (BH) and the nuclear stellar orbital distribution of the elliptical galaxy Centaurus A (NGC5128) using high-re…
Photo-heating and supernova feedback amplify each other's effect on the cosmic star formation rate
Andreas H. Pawlik, Joop Schaye
Photo-heating associated with reionisation and kinetic feedback from core-collapse supernovae have previously been shown to suppress the high-redshift cosmic star formation rate. H…
Pairing mechanisms for binary stars
M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, A. G. A. Brown, S. P. Goodwin +2
Knowledge of the binary population in stellar groupings provides important information about the outcome of the star forming process in different environments. Binarity is also a k…
The Dust-to-Gas Ratio in the Small Magellanic Cloud Tail
K. D. Gordon, C. Bot, E. Muller +21
The Tail region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) was imaged using the MIPS instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope as part of the SAGE-SMC Spitzer Legacy. Diffuse infrared emi…
Evolution of the Color-Magnitude Relation in Galaxy Clusters at z ~1 from the ACS Intermediate Redshift Cluster Survey
Simona Mei, Brad P. Holden, John P. Blakeslee +10
We apply detailed observations of the Color-Magnitude Relation (CMR) with the ACS/HST to study galaxy evolution in eight clusters at z~1. The early-type red sequence is well define…
