Probing the Structure and Kinematics of the transition Layer between the Magellanic Stream and the Halo in HI
Lou Nigra, Snezana Stanimirovic, John S. Gallagher +3
The Magellanic Stream (MS) is a nearby laboratory for studying the fate of cool gas streams injected into a gaseous galactic halo. We investigate properties of the boundary layer b…
The 200 Degree-Long Magellanic Stream System
David L. Nidever, Steven R. Majewski, W. Butler Burton +1
We establish that the Magellanic Stream (MS) is some 40 degrees longer than previously known with certainty and that the entire MS and Leading Arm (LA) system is thus at least 200…
A turn-key Concept for active cancellation of Global Positioning System L3 Signal
Lou Nigra, B. Murray Lewis, Clyde Edgar +4
We present a concept, developed at the National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center (NAIC) at Arecibo, Puerto Rico, for active suppression of Global Positioning System (GPS) signals in…
The Magellanic Stream to Halo Interface: Processes that shape our nearest gaseous Halo Stream
Lou Nigra, Snezana Stanimirovic, J. S. Gallagher +3
Understanding the hydrodynamical processes and conditions at the interface between the Magellanic Stream (MS) and the Galactic halo is critical to understanding the MS and by exten…
MEMS-based Speckle Spectrometer
A. I. Sheinis, L. Nigra, M. Q. Kuhlen
We describe a new concept for a MEMS-based active spatial filter for astronomical spectroscopy. The goal of this device is to allow the use of a diffraction-limited spectrometer on…
