Detectability of Occultation of Stars by Objects in the Kuiper Belt and Oort Cloud
T. C. Nihei, M. J. Lehner, F. B. Bianco +3
The serendipitous detection of stellar occultations by Outer Solar System objects is a powerful method for ascertaining the small end ( km) of the size distribution…
Black hole to bulge mass correlation in Active Galactic Nuclei: A test for the simple unified formation scheme
Y. P. Wang, P. L. Biermann, A. Wandel
A mass correlation of central black holes and their spheroids ~0.002(within a factor of three) is suggested by Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and various ground-based CCD photometrie…
Effects of galaxy mergers on the faint IRAS source counts and the background
Yiping Wang, Peter L. Biermann
Binary merging constitutes a complementary mode of galaxy evolution to the canonical hierarchical clustering theory. This merger-driven evolution not only influences the galaxy mas…
A possible mechanism for the mass ratio limitation in early type galaxies
Yiping Wang, Peter L. Biermann
There is an interesting correlation between the central objects and their host galaxies in recent high resolution HST photometry of early type galaxies and Near-IR images of nearby…
