A Survey for Transient Astronomical Radio Emission at 611 MHz

C. A. Katz, J. N. Hewitt, B. E. Corey +1

We have constructed and operated the Survey for Transient Astronomical Radio Emission (STARE) to detect transient astronomical radio emission at 611 MHz originating from the sky ov…

The SBF Survey of Galaxy Distances. IV. SBF Magnitudes, Colors, and Distances

John L. Tonry, Alan Dressler, John P. Blakeslee +5

We report data for band Surface Brightness Fluctuation (SBF) magnitudes, V-I colors, and distance moduli for 300 galaxies. The Survey contains E, S0 and early-type spiral galax…

Further Investigation of the Time Delay, Magnification Ratios, and Variability in the Gravitational Lens 0218+357

A. S. Cohen, J. N. Hewitt, C. B. Moore +1

High precision VLA flux density measurements for the lensed images of 0218+357 yield a time delay of 10.1(+1.5-1.6)days (95% confidence). This is consistent with independent measur…

Search for Millisecond Periodicities in Type I X-ray Bursts of the Rapid Burster

D. W. Fox, W. H. G. Lewin, R. E. Rutledge +8

We have searched the rising portion of type I X-ray bursts observed from the Rapid Burster with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer for the presence of periodicities. The 95 per cent c…

Identification of a Likely Radio Counterpart of the Rapid Burster

C. B. Moore, R. E. Rutledge, D. W. Fox +4

We have identified a likely radio counterpart to the low-mass X-ray binary MXB 1730-335 (the Rapid Burster). The counterpart has shown 8.4 GHz radio on/off behavior correlated with…

The Evolution of Rapid Burster Outbursts

R. Guerriero, D. W. Fox, J. Kommers +8

We describe the evolutionary progression of an outburst of the Rapid Burster. Four outbursts have been observed with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer between February 1996 and May 1…

15 GHz Monitoring of the Gravitational Lens MG 0414+0534

Christopher B. Moore, Jacqueline N. Hewitt

We report the results of monitoring the four images of the gravitational lens MG 0414+0534 at 15 GHz. In 35 VLA maps spanning 180 days, we measure root-mean-square variations in th…
