Weak gravitational lensing
H. Hoekstra
Luminous tracers have been used extensively to map the large-scale matter distribution in the Universe. Similarly the dynamics of stars or galaxies can be used to estimate masses o…
Potential of LOFT telescope for the search of dark matter
A. Neronov, A. Boyarsky, D. Iakubovskyi +1
Large Observatory For X-ray Timing (LOFT) is a next generation X-ray telescope selected by European Space Agency as one of the space mission concepts within the ``Cosmic Vision'' p…
Discovery of three z>6.5 quasars in the VISTA Kilo-degree Infrared Galaxy (VIKING) survey
B. P. Venemans, J. R. Findlay, W. J. Sutherland +6
Studying quasars at the highest redshifts can constrain models of galaxy and black hole formation, and it also probes the intergalactic medium in the early universe. Optical survey…
The stellar mass function and efficiency of galaxy formation with a varying initial mass function
Sean L. McGee, Ryosuke Goto, Michael L. Balogh
Several recent observational studies have concluded that the initial mass function (IMF) of stars varies systematically with galaxy properties such as velocity dispersion. In this…
An Atlas of Galaxy Spectral Energy Distributions from the Ultraviolet to the Mid-Infrared
Michael J. I. Brown, John Moustakas, J. -D. T. Smith +6
We present an atlas of 129 spectral energy distributions for nearby galaxies, with wavelength coverage spanning from the UV to the mid-infrared. Our atlas spans a broad range of ga…
NGC1266 as a Local Candidate for Rapid Cessation of Star Formation
Katherine Alatalo, Kristina Nyland, Genevieve Graves +27
We present new Spectrographic Areal Unit for Research on Optical Nebulae (SAURON) integral-field spectroscopy and Swift Ultraviolet Optical Telescope (UVOT) observations of molecul…
