Very weak lensing in the CFHTLS Wide: Cosmology from cosmic shear in the linear regime
L. Fu, E. Semboloni, H. Hoekstra +16
We present an exploration of weak lensing by large-scale structure in the linear regime, using the third-year (T0003) CFHTLS Wide data release. Our results place tight constraints…
The SCUBA HAlf Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) -- VI. 350 micron mapping of submillimetre galaxies
Kristen Coppin, Mark Halpern, Douglas Scott +24
A follow-up survey using the Submillimetre High-Angular Resolution Camera (SHARC-II) at 350 microns has been carried out to map the regions around several 850 micron-selected sourc…
Origin of the Structure of the Kuiper Belt during a Dynamical Instability in the Orbits of Uranus and Neptune
Harold F. Levison, Alessandro Morbidelli, Christa Van Laerhoven +2
We explore the origin and orbital evolution of the Kuiper belt in the framework of a recent model of the dynamical evolution of the giant planets, sometimes known as the Nice model…
The SCUBA Half Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) - IX: the environment, mass and redshift dependence of star formation
S. Serjeant, S. Dye, A. Mortier +17
We present a comparison between the SCUBA Half Degree Extragalactic Survey (SHADES) at 450 and 850 microns in the Lockman Hole East with a deep Spitzer Space Telescope survey at 3.…
SANEPIC: A Map-Making Method for Timestream Data From Large Arrays
G. Patanchon, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +23
We describe a map-making method which we have developed for the Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) experiment, but which should have general application t…
The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) 2005: A 4 sq. deg Galactic Plane Survey in Vulpecula (l=59)
E. L. Chapin, P. A. R. Ade, J. J. Bock +24
We present the first results from a new 250, 350, and 500 micron Galactic Plane survey taken with the Balloon-borne Large-Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) in 2005. This sur…
Realistic simulations of gravitational lensing by galaxy clusters: extracting arc parameters from mock DUNE images
Massimo Meneghetti, Peter Melchior, Andrea Grazian +6
We present a newly developed code that allows simulations of optical observations of galaxy fields with a variety of instruments. The code incorporates gravitational lensing effect…
Mid-Infrared Spectral Diagnosis of Submillimeter Galaxies
Alexandra Pope, Ranga-Ram Chary, David M. Alexander +6
We present deep mid-infrared spectroscopy with the Spitzer Space Telescope of 13 submillimeter galaxies (SMGs) in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey North (GOODS-N) field.…
Timing and Precession of the Young, Relativistic Binary Pulsar PSR J1906+0746
L. E. Kasian
We present an updated timing solution and an analysis of the profile evolution - including precession and beam shape - of the young, relativistic binary pulsar J1906+0746. The 144-…
Science With The Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder
Simon Johnston
The future of cm and m-wave astronomy lies with the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), a telescope under development by a consortium of 17 countries that will be 50 times more sensitive…
Eight new MSPs in NGC 6440 and NGC 6441
Paulo C. C. Freire, Scott M. Ransom, Steve Begin +4
We report the discovery of five new millisecond pulsars in the globular cluster NGC 6440 and three new ones in NGC 6441; each cluster has one previously known pulsar. Four of the n…
PSR J1738+0333: a new gravitational laboratory
Paulo C. C. Freire, Bryan A. Jacoby, Matthew Bailes
We describe in this paper a new binary millisecond pulsar, PSR J1738+0333. Using Arecibo, we have achieved good timing accuracy for this object, about 220 ns for 1-hour integration…
Eight New Millisecond Pulsars in NGC 6440 and NGC 6441
Paulo C. C. Freire, Scott M. Ransom, Steve Begin +4
Motivated by the recent discovery of 30 new millisecond pulsars in Terzan 5, made using the Green Bank Telescope's S-band receiver and the Pulsar Spigot spectrometer, we have set o…
Nonradial p-modes in the G9.5 giant epsilon Oph? Pulsation model fits to MOST photometry
T. Kallinger, D. B. Guenther, J. M. Matthews +6
The G9.5 giant eps Oph shows evidence of radial p-mode pulsations in both radial velocity and luminosity. We re-examine the observed frequencies in the photometry and radial veloci…
Searching for p-modes in MOST Procyon data: Another view
F. Baudin, T. Appourchaux, P. Boumier +3
Photometry of Procyon obtained by the MOST satellite in 2004 has been searched for p modes by several groups, with sometimes contradictory interpretations. We explore two possible…
The Very Low Albedo of an Extrasolar Planet: MOST Spacebased Photometry of HD 209458
Jason F. Rowe, Jaymie M. Matthews, Sara Seager +8
Measuring the albedo of an extrasolar planet provides insights into its atmospheric composition and its global thermal properties, including heat dissipation and weather patterns.…
The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope: BLAST

The Balloon-borne Large Aperture Submillimeter Telescope (BLAST) is a sub-orbital surveying experiment designed to study the evolutionary history and processes of star formation in…
How well do we understand cosmological recombination?
Wan Yan Wong, Adam Moss, Douglas Scott
The major theoretical limitation for extracting cosmological parameters from the CMB sky lies in the precision with which we can calculate the cosmological recombination process. U…
Neutron Star Crustal Mass Fractions
Kelsey L. Hoffman, Jeremy S. Heyl
We are investigating mass fractions on the crust of a neutron star which would remain after one year of cooling. We use cooling curves corresponding with various densities, or dept…
