The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS). II. A Catalog of Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster
Laura Ferrarese, Patrick Cote, Lauren A. MacArthur +51
The Next Generation Virgo Cluster Survey (NGVS) is a deep, high resolution imaging campaign that used the 1 deg MegaCam instrument on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope to carr…
X-ray emission from helium star+black hole binaries as probes of tidally induced spin-up of second-born black holes
Koushik Sen, Aleksandra Olejak, Sambaran Banerjee
Tidally induced spin-up of stripped helium stars in short-period (<\,1\,d) binaries with black holes has been presented as one of the possible mechanisms to reproduce the high-spin…
Application of the VMM3a/SRS: A t0-less TWIN GEM-based TPC
K. J. Flöthner, F. Garcia, B. Oberhauser +17
Integrating the ATLAS/BNL VMM3a ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) into the RD51/SRS (Scalable Readout System) provides a self-triggered continuous readout system for v…
Luminosity distance and extinction by submicrometer-sized grains
Ralf Siebenmorgen, Frank Heymann, Rolf Chini
The distance to the stars is a fundamental parameter, which is determined via two primary methods - parallax and luminosity. While the parallax is a direct trigonometric method, th…
