Long gamma-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae have different environments
A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan, L. Strolger +30
When massive stars exhaust their fuel they collapse and often produce the extraordinarily bright explosions known as core-collapse supernovae. On occasion, this stellar collapse al…
Evidence for a Massive Post-Starburst Galaxy at z ~ 6.5
B. Mobasher, M. Dickinson, H. C. Ferguson +26
We present results from a search for high-redshift J--band ``dropout'' galaxies in the portion of the GOODS southern field that is covered by extremely deep imaging from the Hubble…
Disks and Planets Around Massive White Dwarfs
M. Livio, J. E. Pringle, K. Wood
We predict the existence of dusty disks and possibly CO planets around massive white dwarfs. We show that the thermal emission from these disks should be detectable in the infrared…
Evidence for a Starburst within 9 pc of the Active Nucleus of NGC 1097
T. Storchi-Bergmann, R. S. Nemmen, P. F. Spinelli +4
We report evidence for a recent burst of star formation located within 9 pc of the active nucleus of NGC 1097. The observational signatures of the starburst include UV absorption l…
A Possible New Population of Sources with Extreme X-Ray / Optical Ratios
Anton M. Koekemoer, D. M. Alexander, F. E. Bauer +13
We describe a possible new class of X-ray sources that have robust detections in ultra-deep Chandra data, yet have no detections at all in our deep multi-band GOODS Hubble Space Te…
Predictions for the frequency and orbital radii of massive extrasolar planets
Philip J. Armitage, Mario Livio, S. H. Lubow +1
We investigate the migration of massive extrasolar planets due to gravitational interaction with a viscous protoplanetary disc. We show that a model in which planets form at 5 AU a…
