Turning Back the Clock: Inferring the History of the Eight O'clock Arc
Steven L. Finkelstein, Casey Papovich, Gregory Rudnick +5
We present the results from an optical and near-infrared spectroscopic study of the ultraviolet-luminous z = 2.73 galaxy, the 8 o'clock arc. Due to gravitational lensing, this gala…
Nearby Galaxies in the 2micron All Sky Survey I. K-band Luminosity Functions
Nick Devereux, S. P. Willner, M. L. N. Ashby +2
Differential K-band luminosity functions (LFs) are presented for a complete sample of 1613 nearby bright galaxies segregated by visible morphology. The LF for late-type spirals fol…
Astronomical Software Wants To Be Free: A Manifesto
Benjamin J. Weiner, Michael R. Blanton, Alison L. Coil +13
Astronomical software is now a fact of daily life for all hands-on members of our community. Purpose-built software for data reduction and modeling tasks becomes ever more critical…
The Morphological Type Dependence of K-band Luminosity Functions
Nick Devereux, Paul Hriljac, S. P. Willner +2
Differential 2.2um (K-band) luminosity functions are presented for a complete sample of 1570 nearby Vgsr < 3000 km/s, where Vgsr is the velocity measured with respect to the Galact…
Metallicity Effects on Dust Properties in Starbursting Galaxies
C. W. Engelbracht, G. H. Rieke, K. D. Gordon +5
We present infrared observations of 66 starburst galaxies over a wide range of oxygen abundances, to measure how metallicity affects their dust properties. The data include imaging…
A Survey of Galaxy Kinematics to z ~ 1 in the TKRS/GOODS-N Field. II. Evolution in the Tully-Fisher Relation
Benjamin J. Weiner, Christopher N. A. Willmer, S. M. Faber +7
We use kinematic measurements of a large sample of galaxies from the Team Keck Redshift Survey in the GOODS-N field to measure evolution in the optical and near-IR Tully-Fisher rel…
