The Hetu'u Global Network: Measuring the Distance to the Sun Using the June 5th/6th Transit of Venus
Jacqueline K. Faherty, David R. Rodriguez, Scott T. Miller
In the spirit of historic astronomical endeavors, we invited school groups across the globe to collaborate in a solar distance measurement using the rare June 5/6th transit of Venu…
Extraplanar Emission-Line Gas in Edge-On Spiral Galaxies. I. Deep Emission-Line Imaging
Scott T. Miller, Sylvain Veilleux
The extraplanar diffuse ionized gas (eDIG) in 17 nearby, edge-on disk galaxies is studied using deep Taurus Tunable Filter Halpha and [N II] lambda 6583 images and conventional int…
Extraplanar Emission-Line Gas in Edge-On Spiral Galaxies. II. Optical Spectroscopy
Scott T. Miller, Sylvain Veilleux
The results from deep long-slit spectroscopy of nine edge-on spiral galaxies with known extraplanar line emission are reported. Emission from Halpha, [N II] lambda 6548, 6583, and…
Biconical Outflow in the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 2992
S. Veilleux, P. L. Shopbell, S. T. Miller
We report on a detailed kinematic study of the galactic-scale outflow in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 2992. The TAURUS-2 Imaging Fabry-Perot Interferometer was used on the Anglo-Australi…
A Deep ROSAT HRI Observation of NGC 1313
Eric M. Schlegel, Robert Petre, E. J. M. Colbert +1
We describe a series of observations of NGC 1313 using the ROSAT HRI with a combined exposure time of 183.5 ksec. The observations span an interval between 1992 and 1998; the purpo…
Galactic-Scale Outflow and Supersonic Ram-Pressure Stripping in the Virgo Cluster Galaxy NGC 4388
S. Veilleux, J. Bland-Hawthorn, G. Cecil +2
The Hawaii Imaging Fabry-Perot Interferometer (HIFI) on the University of Hawaii 2.2m telescope was used to map the Halpha and [O III] 5007 A emission-line profiles across the enti…
Optical Light Curve of the Type Ia Supernova 1998bu in M96 and the Supernova Calibration of the Hubble Constant
Nicholas B. Suntzeff, M. M. Phillips, R. Covarrubias +15
We present the UBVRI light curves of the Type Ia supernova SN 1998bu which appeared in the nearby galaxy M96 (NGC 3368). M96 is a spiral galaxy in the Leo I group which has a Cephe…
