The POINT-AGAPE survey II: An Unrestricted Search for Microlensing Events towards M31
V. Belokurov, J. An, N. W. Evans +16
An automated search is carried out for microlensing events using a catalogue of 44554 variable superpixel lightcurves derived from our three-year monitoring program of M31. Each st…
The lens and source of the optical Einstein ring gravitational lens ER 0047-2808
Randall B. Wayth, Stephen J. Warren, Geraint F. Lewis +1
(Abridged) We perform a detailed analysis of the optical gravitational lens ER 0047-2808 imaged with WFPC2 on the Hubble Space Telescope. Using software specifically designed for t…
Calibrating Photometric Redshifts of Luminous Red Galaxies
Nikhil Padmanabhan, Tamas Budavari, David J. Schlegel +20
We discuss the construction of a photometric redshift catalogue of Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), emphasizing the principal steps necessary…
Distant field BHB stars and the mass of the Galaxy II: Photometry and spectroscopy of UKST candidates 16<B<19.5, 11<R<52 kpc
L. Clewley, S. J. Warren, P. C. Hewett +2
This is the second in a series of papers presenting a new calculation of the mass of the Galaxy based on radial velocities and distances for a sample of faint 16 < B < 21.3 field b…
Classical novae from the POINT-AGAPE microlensing survey of M31 -- I. The nova catalogue
M. J. Darnley, M. F. Bode, E. Kerins +16
The POINT-AGAPE survey is an optical search for gravitational microlensing events towards the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). As well as microlensing, the survey is sensitive to many diffe…
The POINT-AGAPE Survey I: The Variable Stars in M31
Jin H. An, N. W. Evans, P. Hewett +14
The POINT-AGAPE collaboration has been monitoring M31 for three seasons with the Wide Field Camera on the Isaac Newton Telescope. In each season, data are taken for one hour per ni…
