Quantum Rotatability
Stephen Curran
In arXiv:0807.0677, Köstler and Speicher observed that de Finetti's theorem on exchangeable sequences has a free analogue if one replaces exchangeability by the stronger condition…
The Large-Scale Atomic and Molecular Gas in the Circinus Galaxy
S. J. Curran, B. S. Koribalski, I. Bains
We have used the ATCA and the SEST to map the large-scale atomic and molecular gas in the nearby Circinus galaxy. The HI mosaic of Circinus exhibits the warps in position angle and…
Ionised carbon and galaxy activity
S. J. Curran
We investigate the possibility that the decrease in the relative luminosity of the 158 micron [CII] line with the far-infrared luminosity in extragalactic sources stems from a stro…
The University of New South Wales Extrasolar Planet Search: a catalogue of variable stars from fields observed 2004--2007
J. L. Christiansen, A. Derekas, L. L. Kiss +7
We present a new catalogue of variable stars compiled from data taken for the University of New South Wales Extrasolar Planet Search. From 2004 October to 2007 May, 25 target field…
Relationships between the HI 21-cm line strength, MgII equivalent width and metallicity in damped Lyman-alpha absorption systems
S. J. Curran, P. Tzanavaris, Y. M. Pihlstroem +1
We present the results of a survey for 21-cm absorption in four never previously searched damped Lyman-alpha absorption systems (DLAs) with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope…
HI and OH absorption in the lensing galaxy of MG J0414+0534
S. J. Curran, J. Darling, A. D. Bolatto +3
We report the detection of \HI 21-cm absorption in the early-type lensing galaxy towards MG J0414+0534 with the Green Bank Telescope. The absorption, with total $N_{\rm HI…
