Atmospheric scintillation at Dome C, Antarctica: implications for photometry and astrometry

S. L. Kenyon, J. S. Lawrence, M. C. B. Ashley +3

We present low-resolution turbulence profiles of the atmosphere above Dome C, Antarctica, measured with the MASS instrument during 25 nights in March-May 2004. Except for the lowes…

A Search for Untriggered GRB Afterglows with ROTSE-III

E. S. Rykoff, F. Aharonian, C. W. Akerlof +17

We present the results of a search for untriggered gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows with the Robotic Optical Transient Search Experiment-III (ROTSE-III) telescope array. This searc…

The ROTSE-III Robotic Telescope System

C. W. Akerlof, M. C. B. Ashley, D. E. Casperson +12

The observation of a prompt optical flash from GRB990123 convincingly demonstrated the value of autonomous robotic telescope systems. Pursuing a program of rapid follow-up observat…

Photodissociation regions and star formation in the Carina Nebula

J. M. Rathborne, M. G. Burton, K. J. Brooks +3

We have obtained wide-field thermal infrared (IR) images of the Carina Nebula, using the SPIREX/Abu telescope at the South Pole. Emission from poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PA…

Unlocking the Keyhole - H2 and PAH emission from molecular clumps in the Keyhole Nebula

K. J. Brooks, M. G. Burton, J. M. Rathborne +2

To better understand the environment surrounding CO emission clumps in the Keyhole Nebula, we have made images of the region in H2 1-0 S(1) (2.122 um) emission and polycyclic aroma…
