Externally Occulted Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronagraph: Simulations and Sensitivities
Richard G. Lyon, Sally Heap, Amy Lo +5
A multitude of coronagraphic techniques for the space-based direct detection and characterization of exo-solar terrestrial planets are actively being pursued by the astronomical co…
CO(1-0), CO(2-1) and Neutral Gas in NGC 6946: Molecular Gas in a Late-Type, Gas Rich, Spiral Galaxy
Lucian Crosthwaite, Jean Turner
We present "On The Fly" maps of the CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) emission covering a 10' X 10' region of the NGC 6946. Using our CO maps and archival VLA HI observations we create a total g…
Brackett Lines from the Super Star Cluster Nebulae in He 2-10
Alaina L. Henry, Jean L. Turner, Sara C. Beck +3
We present high spectral resolution (v~12-16 km/s) Brackett line spectroscopy of the blue compact dwarf galaxy Henize 2-10 made with NIRSPEC on the Keck Telescope. The spatial reso…
Subarcsecond-Resolution Radio Maps of Nearby Spiral Galaxies
Chao-Wei Tsai, Jean L. Turner, Sara C. Beck +4
We report subarcsecond-resolution VLA imaging of four nearby spiral galaxies: IC 342, Maffei II, NGC 2903, and NGC 6946. In each galaxy, compact radio continuum sources are identif…
High Resolution Radio Maps of Four Nearby Spiral Galaxies
Chao-Wei Tsai, Jean L. Turner, Sara C. Beck +4
We report subarcsecond-resolution VLA imaging of the centers of four nearby spiral galaxies: IC 342, Maffei II, NGC 2903, and NGC 6946. In each galaxy, 7 - 12 compact radio continu…
The James Webb Space Telescope
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Mark Clampin +20
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large (6.6m), cold (50K), infrared-optimized space observatory that will be launched early in the next decade. The observatory will have…
Exploring Halo Substructure with Giant Stars VIII: The Extended Structure of the Sculptor Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy
Kyle B. Westfall, Steven R. Majewski, James C. Ostheimer +4
(Abridged) We explore the spatial distribution of stars in the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy over an area of 7.82 deg^2. We identify red giant branch (RGB) starts via Was…
Exploring Halo Substructure with Giant Stars. VI. Extended Distributions of Giant Stars Around the Carina Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy -- How Reliable Are They?
S. R. Majewski, P. M. Frinchaboy, W. E. Kunkel +6
The question of the existence of active tidal disruption around various dSph galaxies remains controversial. That debate often centers on the nature (bound vs. unbound) of extended…
Exploring Halo Substructure with Giant Stars IV: The Extended Structure of the Ursa Minor Dwarf Spheroidal
C. Palma, S. Majewski, M. Siegel +3
We present a large area photometric survey of the Ursa Minor dSph. We identify UMi giant star candidates extending to ~3 deg from the center of the dSph. Comparison to previous cat…
EGRET Spectral Index and the Low-Energy Peak Position in the Spectral Energy Distribution of EGRET-Detected Blazars
Y. C. Lin
In current theoretical models of the blazar subclass of active galaxies, the broadband emission consists of two components: a low-frequency synchrotron component with a peak in the…
EGRET Observations of the Extragalactic Gamma Ray Emission
P. Sreekumar
The all-sky survey in high-energy gamma rays (E30 MeV) carried out by the Energetic Gamma Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) aboard the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory provides a un…
