The James Webb Space Telescope
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Mark Clampin +20
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large (6.6m), cold (50K), infrared-optimized space observatory that will be launched early in the next decade. The observatory will have…
Massive Binary WR112 and Properties of Wolf-Rayet Dust
S. V. Marchenko, A. F. J. Moffat, W. D. Vacca +2
Some hot, massive, population-I Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars of the carbon subclass are known to be prolific dust-producers. How dust can form in such a hostile environment remains a myst…
Near-infrared [Fe II] emission from supernova remnants and the supernova rate of starburst galaxies
T. Morel, R. Doyon, N. St-Louis
In an effort to better calibrate the supernova rate of starburst galaxies as determined from near-IR [Fe II] features, we report on a [Fe II] 1.644 microns line-imaging survey of a…
Near infrared spectroscopy of starburst galaxies
R. Coziol, R. Doyon, S. Demers
(Abridged) We present new K-band spectroscopy for a sample of 48 starburst galaxies, obtained using UKIRT in Hawaii. This constitutes a fair sample of the most common types of star…
A near-IR [Fe II] line imaging survey of supernova remnants in M33
T. Morel, R. Doyon, N. St-Louis
We report on the first near-IR [Fe II] line imaging survey of extragalactic SNRs. Observations of a sample of 42 objects drawn from an optically-selected catalogue of SNRs in M33 p…
Do galaxy mergers form elliptical galaxies? A comparison of kinematic and photometric properties
P. A. James, C. Bate, M. Wells +2
We present near-IR K-band imaging and spectroscopy of a sample of galaxy mergers, which we use to derive light profile indices, absolute magnitudes and central velocity dispersions…
