Deep Swift/UVOT Observations of GOODS-N and the Evolution of the Ultraviolet Luminosity Function at 0.2<z<1.2

Alexander Belles, Caryl Gronwall, Michael H. Siegel +2

We present Swift Ultraviolet Optical Telescope (UVOT) observations of the deep field GOODS-N in four near-UV filters. A catalog of detected galaxies is reported, which will be used…

A Large Catalog of Homogeneous Ultra-Violet/Optical GRB Afterglows: Temporal and Spectral Evolution

Peter W. A. Roming, T. Scott Koch, Samantha R. Oates +10

We present the second Swift Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglow catalog, greatly expanding on the first Swift UVOT GRB afterglow catalog. The seco…

Swift Ultraviolet Observations of Supernova 2014J in M82: Large Extinction from Interstellar Dust

Peter J. Brown, Michael T. Smitka, Lifan Wang +8

We present optical and ultraviolet (UV) photometry and spectra of the very nearby and highly reddened supernova (SN) 2014J in M82 obtained with the Swift Ultra-Violet/Optical Teles…

FMOS near-IR spectroscopy of Herschel selected galaxies: star formation rates, metallicity and dust attenuation at z~1

I. G. Roseboom, A. Bunker, M. Sumiyoshi +36

We investigate the properties (e.g. star formation rate, dust attentuation, stellar mass and metallicity) of a sample of infrared luminous galaxies at z \sim 1 via near-IR spectros…

Swift UV/Optical Telescope Imaging of Star Forming Regions in M81 and Holmberg IX

E. A. Hoversten, C. Gronwall, D. E. Vanden Berk +7

We present Swift UV/Optical Telescope (UVOT) imaging of the galaxies M81 and Holmberg IX. We combine UVOT imaging in three near ultraviolet (NUV) filters (uvw2: 1928 Å, uvm2: 2246…

Faint NUV/FUV Standards from Swift/UVOT, GALEX and SDSS Photometry

Michael H. Siegel, Erik A. Hoversten, Peter W. A. Roming +8

At present, the precision of deep ultraviolet photometry is somewhat limited by the dearth of faint ultraviolet standard stars. In an effort to improve this situation, we present a…

Photometric Calibration of the Swift Ultraviolet/Optical Telescope

T. S. Poole, A. A. Breeveld, M. J. Page +28

We present the photometric calibration of the Swift UltraViolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) which includes: optimum photometric and background apertures, effective area curves, colour…

Can a Dusty Warm Absorber Model Reproduce the Soft X-ray Spectra of MCG-6-30-15 and Mrk 766?

M. Sako, S. M. Kahn, G. Branduardi-Raymont +8

XMM-Newton RGS spectra of MCG-6-30-15 and Mrk 766 exhibit complex discrete structure, which was interpreted in a paper by Branduardi-Raymont et al. (2001) as evidence for the exist…
