MIRIS observation of near-infrared diffuse Galactic light
Y. Onishi, K. Sano, S. Matsuura +17
We report near-infrared (IR) observations of high Galactic latitude clouds to investigate diffuse Galactic light (DGL), which is starlight scattered by interstellar dust grains. Th…
Ultraviolet to optical diffuse sky emission as seen by the Hubble Space Telescope Faint Object Spectrograph
K. Kawara, Y. Matsuoka, K. Sano +5
We present an analysis of the blank sky spectra observed with the Faint Object Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. We study the diffuse sky emission from ultraviolet…
Diffuse Galactic Light in the Field of the Translucent High Galactic Latitude Cloud MBM32
N. Ienaka, K. Kawara, Y. Matsuoka +4
We have conducted B, g, V, and R-band imaging in a 45x40 arcmin^2 field containing part of the high Galactic latitude translucent cloud MBM32, and correlated the intensity of diffu…
Updated Analysis of a "Dark" Galaxy and its Blue Companion in the Virgo Cloud HI 1225+01
Y. Matsuoka, N. Ienaka, S. Oyabu +2
HI 1225+01 is an intergalactic gas cloud located on the outskirts of Virgo cluster. Its main components are two large clumps of comparable HI masses (M_HI ~ 10^9 Msun) separated by…
Polarization and Variation of Near-IR Light from Fermi/LAT gamma-ray Sources
Mai Fujiwara, Yoshiki Matsuoka, Nobuyuki Ienaka
We present the results of our follow-up observation program of gamma-ray sources detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. 26 blazars…
Extinction law in ultraluminous infrared galaxies at z ~ 1
T. Shimizu, K. Kawara, H. Sameshima +3
We analyze the multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic data of 12 ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) at z ~ 1 and compare them with models of stars and dust in order t…
Cosmic Optical Background: the View from Pioneer 10/11
Y. Matsuoka, N. Ienaka, K. Kawara +1
We present the new constraints on the cosmic optical background (COB) obtained from an analysis of the Pioneer 10/11 Imaging Photopolarimeter (IPP) data. After careful examination…
Supernova dust for the extinction law in a young infrared galaxy at z = 1
K. Kawara, H. Hirashita, T. Nozawa +6
We apply the supernova(SN) extinction curves to reproduce the observed properties of SST J1604+4304 which is a young infrared (IR) galaxy at z = 1. The SN extinction curves used in…
Stellar population and dust extinction in an ultraluminous infrared galaxy at z=1.135
K. Kawara, S. Oyabu, Y. Matsuoka +6
We present the detailed optical to far-infrared observations of SST J1604+4304, an ULIRG at z = 1.135. Analyzing the stellar absorption lines, namely, the CaII H & K and Balmer H l…
Ultraviolet Fe II emission in z ~ 2 quasars
Hiroaki Sameshima, Jose Maza, Yoshiki Matsuoka +6
We present spectra of six luminous quasars at z ~ 2, covering rest wavelengths 1600-3200 A. The fluxes of the UV Fe II emission lines and Mg II 2798 doublet, the line widths of Mg…
Optical to Near-IR Spectrum of a Massive Evolved Galaxy at z = 1.26
Y. Matsuoka, B. A. Peterson, S. Oyabu +6
We present the optical to near-infrared (IR) spectrum of the galaxy TSPS J1329-0957, a red and bright member of the class of extremely red objects (EROs) at z = 1.26. This galaxy w…
