The VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA): Survey Design, Data Processing, and Spectral Analysis Methods
Guillermo A. Blanc, Tim Weinzirl, Mimi Song +14
We present the survey design, data reduction, and spectral fitting pipeline for the VIRUS-P Exploration of Nearby Galaxies (VENGA). VENGA is an integral field spectroscopic survey,…
A search of CO emission lines in blazars: the low molecular gas content of BL Lac objects compared to quasars
Michele Fumagalli, Miroslava Dessauges-Zavadsky, Amy Furniss +4
BL Lacertae (Lac) objects that are detected at very-high energies (VHE) are of fundamental importance to study multiple astrophysical processes, including the physics of jets, the…
H I Column Densities, Metallicities, and Dust Extinction of Metal-Strong Damped Lya Systems
Kyle F. Kaplan, J. Xavier Prochaska, Stephane Herbert-Fort +2
With the Blue Channel Spectrograph (BCS) on the MMT telescope, we have obtained spectra to the atmospheric cutoff of quasars previously known to show at least one absorption system…
A Survey of UV Bright Sources Behind the Halo of M31
Andrew Fittingoff, J. Xavier Prochaska, Jasonjot S. Kalirai +3
We have performed a wide-area ultraviolet (UV) imaging survey using the GALaxy Evolution eXplorer (GALEX) to search for bright, point-like UV sources behind M31's extended halo. Ou…
