Increasing the Number of Underrepresented Minorities in Astronomy at the Undergraduate, Graduate, and Postdoctoral Levels (Paper I)
Dara Norman, CSMA, NSHP +30
If the ethnic makeup of the astronomy profession is to achieve parity with the general population within one generation (~30 years), the number of underrepresented minorities earni…
Increasing the Number of Underrepresented Minorities in Astronomy: Executive Summary
Dara Norman, CSMA, NSHP +30
Promoting racial and ethnic diversity is critically important to the future success and growth of the field of astronomy. The raw ability, drive and interest required to excel in t…
Low-Energy Astrophysics: Stimulating the Reduction of Energy Consumption in the Next Decade
P. J. Marshall, N. Bennert, E. S. Rykoff +27
In this paper we address the consumption of energy by astronomers while performing their professional duties. Although we find that astronomy uses a negligible fraction of the US e…
Relation Between Stellar Mass and Star Formation Activity in Galaxies
Bahram Mobasher, T. Dahlen, A. Hopkins +8
For a mass-selected sample of 66544 galaxies with photometric redshifts from the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS), we examine the evolution of star formation activity as a function…
Dust Masses, PAH Abundances, and Starlight Intensities in the SINGS Galaxy Sample
B. T. Draine, D. A. Dale, G. Bendo +17
Physical dust models are presented for 65 galaxies in the SINGS survey that are strongly detected in the four IRAC bands and three MIPS bands. For each galaxy we estimate (1) the t…
COSMOS morphological classification with ZEST (the Zurich Estimator of Structural Types) and the evolution since z=1 of the Luminosity Function of early-, disk-, and irregular galaxies
C. Scarlata, C. M. Carollo, S. J. Lilly +26
(ABRIDGED) Motivated by the desire to reliably and automatically classify structure of thousands of COSMOS galaxies, we present ZEST, the Zurich Estimator of Structural Types. To c…
