Center for Astrophysics Optical Infrared Science Archive. I. FAST Spectrograph
Jessica Mink, Warren R. Brown, Igor V. Chilingarian +6
We announce the public release of 141,531 moderate-dispersion optical spectra of 72,247 objects acquired over the past 25 years with the FAST Spectrograph on the Fred L. Whipple Ob…
HectoMAP and Horizon Run 4: Dense Structures and Voids in the Real and Simulated Universe
Ho Seong Hwang, Margaret J. Geller, Changbom Park +10
HectoMAP is a dense redshift survey of red galaxies covering a 53 strip of the northern sky. HectoMAP is 97\% complete for galaxies with , , and $(r-i)…
A Machine Learning Method to Infer Fundamental Stellar Parameters from Photometric Light Curves
A. A. Miller, J. S. Bloom, J. W. Richards +6
A fundamental challenge for wide-field imaging surveys is obtaining follow-up spectroscopic observations: there are > photometrically cataloged sources, yet modern spectrosc…
Weak-Lensing Mass Measurements of Five Galaxy Clusters in the South Pole Telescope Survey Using Magellan/Megacam
F. W. High, H. Hoekstra, N. Leethochawalit +83
We use weak gravitational lensing to measure the masses of five galaxy clusters selected from the South Pole Telescope (SPT) survey, with the primary goal of comparing these with t…
The 2MASS Redshift Survey - Description and Data Release
John P. Huchra, Lucas M. Macri, Karen L. Masters +17
We present the results of the 2MASS Redshift Survey (2MRS), a ten-year project to map the full three-dimensional distribution of galaxies in the nearby Universe. The 2 Micron All-S…
Yellow Supergiants in the Andromeda Galaxy (M31)
Maria R. Drout, Philip Massey, Georges Meynet +2
The yellow supergiant content of nearby galaxies can provide a critical test of stellar evolution theory, bridging the gap between the hot, massive stars and the cool red supergian…
Discovery of Gas Accretion Onto Stars in 13 Myr old h and chi Persei
Thayne Currie, Scott Kenyon, Zoltan Balog +2
We report the discovery of accretion disks associated with ~ 13 Myr-old intermediate/low-mass stars in h and chi Persei. Optical spectroscopy of ~ 5000 stars in these clusters and…
Hectospec, the MMT's 300 Optical Fiber-Fed Spectrograph
Daniel Fabricant, Robert Fata, John Roll +6
The Hectospec is a 300 optical fiber fed spectrograph commissioned at the MMT in the spring of 2004. A pair of high-speed six-axis robots move the 300 fiber buttons between observi…
Steps Toward Determination of the Size and Structure of the Broad-Line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei. XVI. A Thirteen-Year Study of Spectral Variability in NGC 5548
B. M. Peterson, the International AGN Watch
We present the final installment of an intensive 13-year study of variations of the optical continuum and broad H-beta emission line in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548. The data base…
Monitoring of the optical and 2.5-11.7 micron spectrum and mid-IR imaging of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk279 with ISO
The AGN Watch collaboration, M. Santos-Lleo, J. Clavel +19
Mid-infrared images of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 279 obtained with the ISO satellite are presented together with the results of a one-year monitoring campaign of the 2.5-11.7 micron…
The Updated Zwicky Catalog (UZC)
Emilio E. Falco, Michael J. Kurtz, Margaret J. Geller +6
The Zwicky Catalog of galaxies (ZC), with m_Zw<=15.5mag, has been the basis for the Center for Astrophysics (CfA) redshift surveys. To date, analyses of the ZC and redshift surveys…
Steps Toward Determination of the Size and Structure of the Broad-Line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei. XV. Long-Term Optical Monitoring of NGC 5548
B. M. Peterson, A. J. Barth, P. Berlind +34
We present the results of three years of ground-based observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548, which combined with previously reported data, yield optical continuum and broad…
