Proper motions with Subaru I. Methods and a first sample in the Subaru Deep Field

Michael W. Richmond, Tomoki Morokuma, Mamoru Doi +4

We search for stars with proper motions in a set of twenty deep Subaru images, covering about 0.28 square degrees to a depth of i ~ 25, taken over a span of six years. In this pape…

The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity

Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50

Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…

Delay Time Distribution Measurement of Type Ia Supernovae by the Subaru/XMM-Newton Deep Survey and Implications for the Progenitor

Tomonori Totani, Tomoki Morokuma, Takeshi Oda +2

The delay time distribution (DTD) of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from star formation is an important clue to reveal the still unknown progenitor system of SNe Ia. Here we report on…
