A comparison between SALT/SAAO observations and kilonova models for AT 2017gfo: the first electromagnetic counterpart of a gravitational wave transient - GW170817
David A. H. Buckley, Igor Andreoni, Sudhanshu Barway +13
We report on SALT low resolution optical spectroscopy and optical/IR photometry undertaken with other SAAO telescopes (MASTER-SAAO and IRSF) of the kilonova AT 2017gfo (aka SSS17a)…
Extragalactic background Light: a measurement at 400 nm using dark cloud shadow II. Spectroscopic separation of dark cloud's light, and results
K. Mattila, P. Väisänen, K. Lehtinen +2
In a project aimed at measuring the optical Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) we are using the shadow of a dark cloud.We have performed, with the ESO VLT/FORS, spectrophotometry…
Extragalactic Background Light: a measurement at 400 nm using dark cloud shadow I. Low surface brightness spectrophotometry in the area of Lynds 1642
K. Mattila, K. Lehtinen, P. Väisänen +2
We present the method and observations for the measurement of the Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) utilizing the shadowing effect of a dark cloud. We measure the surface bright…
Star formation and AGN activity in a sample of local Luminous Infrared Galaxies through multi-wavelength characterization
Rubén Herrero-Illana, Miguel Á. Pérez-Torres, Zara Randriamanakoto +8
Nuclear starbursts and AGN activity are the main heating processes in luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs) and their relationship is fundamental to understand galaxy evolution. In th…
