Gravitational Microlensing: Past, Present and Future
Shude Mao
Ongoing microlensing surveys have already yielded more than five hundred microlensing events, most of which have been identified in real-time. In this review I present the basic th…
An Ongoing OGLE Parallax Microlensing Event Toward Carina
Shude Mao
We study the first microlensing event toward the Carina spiral arm discovered by the OGLE collaboration. We demonstrate that this long duration event exhibits strong parallax signa…
An HST Surface Photometric Study of Ultraluminous Infrared Galaxies
Z. Zheng, H. Wu, S. Mao +3
We study the surface photometry for 13 single-nucleus ultraluminous IRAS galaxies (ULIRGs), selected from a parent sample of 58 galaxies obtained in a Hubble Space Telescope snapsh…
Ultraluminous IRAS galaxy 10026+4347
X. -Y. Xia, Shude Mao, H. Wu +4
We study optical and X-ray properties of the ultraluminous IRAS galaxy 10026+4347. This galaxy is a narrow-line QSO with very strong FeII emission. Three optical spectra were taken…
The Formation and Evolution of Disk Galaxies
Shude Mao, H. J. Mo, Simon D. M. White
We review some of our recent progress in modelling the formation of disk galaxies in the framework of hierarchical structure formation. Our model is not only consistent with the lo…
The Nature of the Host Galaxies for Gamma-Ray Bursts
Shude Mao, H. J. Mo
It has been suggested recently that the rate of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) is proportional to the star formation rate in the universe. In this paper, we study the nature of GRB hosts…
