Science with UT's Dichroic-Mirror Camera (DMC), 15-band simultaneous imager
Hanindyo Kuncarayakti, Mamoru Doi, Hakim L. Malasan +20
We introduce the Dichroic-Mirror Camera (DMC), an instrument developed at the University of Tokyo which is capable of performing simultaneous imaging in fifteen bands. The main fea…
Sequential star formation in a cometary globule (BRC37) of IC1396
Hisashi Ikeda, Koji Sugitani, Makoto Watanabe +9
We have carried out near-IR/optical observations to examine star formation toward a bright-rimmed cometary globule (BRC37) facing the exciting star(s) of an HII region (IC1396) con…
The period-luminosity relation for type II Cepheids in globular clusters
Noriyuki Matsunaga, Hinako Fukushi, Yoshikazu Nakada +11
We report the result of our near-infrared observations (JHKs) for type II Cepheids (including possible RV Tau stars) in galactic globular clusters. We detected variations of 46 var…
Near Infrared Imaging Survey of Bok Globules: Density Structure
Ryo Kandori, Yasushi Nakajima, Motohide Tamura +11
On the basis of near-infrared imaging observations, we derived visual extinction (Av) distribution toward ten Bok globules through measurements of both the color excess (E_{H-K}) a…
A Distinct Structure Inside the Galactic Bar
Shogo Nishiyama, Tetsuya Nagata, Daisuke Baba +16
We present the result of a near-infrared (J H Ks) survey along the Galactic plane, -10.5deg < l < +10.5deg and b=+1.0deg, with the IRSF 1.4m telescope and the SIRIUS camera. Ks vs.…
Current Performance and On-Going Improvements of the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope
Masanori Iye, Hiroshi Karoji, Hiroyasu Ando +2
An overview of the current status of the 8.2 m Subaru Telescope constructed and operated at Mauna Kea, Hawaii, by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan is presented. The b…
