SCUBA-2 overdensities associated with candidate protoclusters selected from Planck data

T. Cheng, D. L. Clements, J. Greenslade +21

We measure the 850-m source densities of 46 candidate protoclusters selected from the Planck High-z catalogue (PHz) and the Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS) that were…

SCUBA-2 observations of candidate starbursting protoclusters selected by Planck and Herschel-SPIRE

T. Cheng, D. L. Clements, J. Greenslade +21

We present SCUBA-2 850-m observations of 13 candidate starbursting protoclusters selected using Planck and Herschel data. The cumulative number counts of the 850-m sources in…

Source-intrinsic near-infrared properties of Sgr A*: Total intensity measurements

G. Witzel, A. Eckart, M. Bremer +12

We present a comprehensive data description for Ks-band measurements of Sgr A*. We characterize the statistical properties of the variability of Sgr A* in the near-infrared, which…

Classifying Radio Emitters from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Spectroscopy and Diagnostics

M. Vitale, J. Zuther, M. Garcia-Marin +4

A cross-correlation of the SDSS DR7 with the FIRST radio survey makes it possible to conduct a joined multiwavelength statistical study of radio-optical galaxy properties on a very…

Near-infrared proper motions and spectroscopy of infrared excess sources at the Galactic Center

A. Eckart, K. Muzic, S. Yazici +11

There are a number of faint compact infrared excess sources in the central stellar cluster of the Milky Way. Their nature and origin is unclear. In addition to several isolated obj…

Adaptive optics assisted near-infrared polarization measurements of sources in the Galactic Center

Rainer M. Buchholz, Gunther Witzel, Rainer Schödel +3

The goals of this work are to provide NIR polarimetry of the stellar sources in the central pc at the resolution of an 8m telescope for the first time, along with new insights into…
