Proper Motions in the Galactic Bulge: Plaut's Window
Katherine Vieira, Dana I. Casetti-Dinescu, Rene A. Mendez +6
A proper motion study of a field of 20' x 20' inside Plaut's low extinction window (l,b)=(0 deg,-8 deg), has been completed. Relative proper motions and photographic BV photometry…
037-B327 in M31: Luminous Globular Cluster or Core of a Former Dwarf Spheroidal Companion to M31?
Jun Ma, Sidney van den Bergh, Hong Wu +6
037-B327 is of interest because it is both the most luminous and the most highly reddened cluster known in M31. Deep observations with the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble…
Discovery of Outlying, High-Velocity Oxygen-Rich Ejecta in Cassiopeia A
R. A. Fesen, M. C. Hammell, J. Morse +7
Hubble Space Telescope images of the young Galactic supernova remnant Cassiopeia A reveal a far larger population of outlying, high-velocity knots of ejecta with a broader range of…
Classifications of the Host Galaxies of Supernovae, Set III
Sidney van den Bergh, Weidong Li, Alexei V. Filippenko
A homogeneous sample comprising host galaxies of 604 recent supernovae, including 212 objects discovered primarily in 2003 and 2004, has been classified on the David Dunlap Observa…
Classifications of the Host Galaxies of Supernovae, Set II
Sidney van den Bergh, Weidong Li, Alexei V. Filippenko
Classifications on the DDO system are given for an additional 231 host galaxies of supernovae that have been discovered during the course of the Lick Observatory Supernova Search w…
A New Approach to Galaxy Morphology: I. Analysis of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Early Data Release
Roberto Abraham, Sidney van den Bergh, Preethi Nair
In this paper we present a new statistic for quantifying galaxy morphology based on measurements of the Gini coefficient of galaxy light distributions. This statistic is easy to me…
