Modeling the Galactic Center Nonthermal Filaments as Magnetized Wake

Russell B. Dahlburg, Giorgio Einaudi, T. N. LaRosa +1

We simulate the Galactic Center nonthermal filaments as magnetized wakes formed dynamically from amplification of a weak (tens of G) global magnetic field through the interactio…

High-Resolution Spectroscopy of G191-B2B in the Extreme Ultraviolet

R. G. Cruddace, M. P. Kowalski, D. J. Yentis +14

We report a high-resolution (R=3000-4000) spectroscopic observation of the DA white dwarf G191-B2B in the extreme ultraviolet band 220-245 A. A low- density ionised He component is…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog I. Early Data Release

Donald P. Schneider, Gordon T. Richards, Xiaohui Fan +9

We present the first edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog. The catalog consists of the 3814 objects (3000 discovered by the SDSS) in the initial SDSS publi…
