Observational constraints on the evolutionary connection between PG 1159 stars and DO white dwarfs

S. D. Huegelmeyer, S. Dreizler, K. Werner +3

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has provided spectra of a large number of new PG 1159 stars and DO white dwarfs. This increase in known hot H-deficient compact objects significantly i…

A Subaru/Suprime-Cam wide-field survey of globular cluster populations around M87 - II: Colour and spatial distribution

Naoyuki Tamura, Ray M. Sharples, Nobuo Arimoto +3

We have performed a wide-field imaging survey of the globular cluster (GC) populations around M87 out to a radius of ~ 0.5 Mpc with Suprime-Cam on the 8.2m Subaru Telescope. By inv…

First Detection of NaI D lines in High-Redshift Damped Lyman-alpha Systems

Sohei Kondo, Naoto Kobayashi, Yosuke Minowa +15

A Near-infrared (1.18-1.35 micron) high-resolution spectrum of the gravitationally-lensed QSO APM 08279+5255 was obtained with the IRCS mounted on the Subaru Telescope using the AO…
