Limits on the Transverse Velocity of the Lensing Galaxy in Q2237+0305 from the Lack of Strong Microlensing Variability

Rodrigo Gil-Merino, Joachim Wambsganss, Luis J. Goicoechea +1

We present a method for the determination of upper limits on the transverse velocity of the lensing galaxy in the quadruple quasar system Q2237+0305, based on the lack of strong mi…

Modeling the evolution of infrared luminous galaxies: the influence of the Luminosity-Temperature distribution

Geraint F. Lewis, Scott C. Chapman, George Helou

The evolution of the luminous infrared galaxy population is explored using a pure luminosity evolution model which incorporates the locally observed luminosity-temperature distribu…

Distances and Metallicities for 17 Local Group Galaxies

A. W. McConnachie, M. J Irwin, A. M. N. Ferguson +3

We have obtained Johnson V and Gunn i photometry for a large number of Local Group galaxies using the Isaac Newton Telescope Wide Field Camera (INT WFC). The majority of these gala…

The Andromeda Stream

G. F. Lewis, R. A. Ibata, S. C. Chapman +4

The existence of a stream of tidally stripped stars from the Sagittarius Dwarf galaxy demonstrates that the Milky Way is still in the process of accreting mass. More recently, an e…
