Keck IR Spectroscopy of WZ Sge: Detection of Molecular Emission from the Accretion Disk
Steve B. Howell, Thomas E. Harrison, Paula Szkody
Time-resolved IR spectroscopy of WZ Sge was obtained using NIRSPEC on Keck II. We detect CO and H emission from the accretion disk placing WZ Sge into a rarefied class of…
A Survey of Open Clusters in the u'g'r'i'z' Filter System: I. Results for NGC2548 (M48)
Cristin J. Rider, Douglas L. Tucker, J. Allyn Smith +3
We present initial results of a photometric survey of open star clusters, primarily in the southern hemisphere, taken in the u'g'r'i'z' filter system. While our entire observed sam…
A Catalog of Compact Groups of Galaxies in the SDSS Commissioning Data
B. C. Lee, S. S. Allam, D. L. Tucker +20
Compact groups (CGs) of galaxies -- relatively poor groups of galaxies in which the typical separations between members is of the order of a galaxy diameter -- offer an exceptional…
Actively Star Forming Elliptical Galaxies at Low Redshifts in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Masataka Fukugita, Osamu Nakamura, Edwin L. Turner +2
We report discovery of actively star forming elliptical galaxies in a morphologically classified sample of bright galaxies at a low redshift obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Sur…
Merging Galaxies in the SDSS EDR
S. S. Allam, D. L. Tucker, J. A. Smith +5
We present a new catalog of merging galaxies obtained through an automated systematic search routine. The 1479 new pairs of merging galaxies were found in approximately 462 sq deg…
On the Continuing Formation of the Andromeda Galaxy: Detection of HI Clouds in the M31 Halo
David A. Thilker, Robert Braun, Rene A. M. Walterbos +4
Green Bank Telescope (GBT) 21cm observations have revealed a faint, yet extensive HI cloud population surrounding the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). The newfound objects are likely analog…
