JHK Observations of Faint Standard Stars in the Mauna Kea Near-Infrared Photometric System
S. K. Leggett, M. J. Currie, W. P. Varricatt +10
JHK photometry in the Mauna Kea Observatory (MKO) near-IR system is presented for 115 stars. Of these, 79 are UKIRT standards and 42 are LCO standards. The average brightness is 11…
A multi-object, multi-field spectrometer and imager for a European ELT
Chris Evans, Colin Cunningham, Eli Atad-Ettedgui +11
One of the highlights of the European ELT Science Case book is the study of resolved stellar populations, potentially out to the Virgo Cluster of galaxies. A European ELT would ena…
L' and M' Standard Stars for the Mauna Kea Observatories Near-Infrared System
S. K. Leggett, T. G. Hawarden, M. J. Currie +7
We present L'and M' photometry, obtained at UKIRT using the Mauna Kea Observatories Near-IR filter set, for 46 and 31 standard stars, respectively. The L' standards include 25 from…
The obscured circumnuclear region of NGC 3079
F. P. Israel, P. P. van der Werf, T. G. Hawarden +1
Images in the J, H and K bands and in the the v=1-0 S(1) line of H2 of the central region of the almost edge-on galaxy NGC 3079 reveal contributions from direct and scattered starl…
The Bar-enhanced Star-formation Activities in Spiral Galaxies
J. H. Huang, Q. S. Gu, H. J. Su +3
We use the ratio and the IRAS color index S/S (both widely used as indices of relative star formation rates in galaxies) to analyse subsets (c…
