A census of optically dark massive galaxies in the early Universe from magnification by lensing galaxy clusters

Xinwen Shu, Lei Yang, Daizhong Liu +10

We present ALMA 870um and JCMT SCUBA2 850um dust continuum observations of a sample of optically dark and strongly lensed galaxies in the cluster fields. The ALMA and SCUBA2 observ…

Searching for the Transit of the Earth--mass exoplanet Proxima~Centauri~b in Antarctica: Preliminary Result

Hui-Gen Liu, Peng Jiang, Xingxing Huang +21

Proxima Centauri is known as the closest star from the Sun. Recently, radial velocity observations revealed the existence of an Earth-mass planet around it. With an orbital period…

The ALMA Frontier Fields Survey - II. Multiwavelength Photometric analysis of 1.1mm continuum sources in Abell 2744, MACSJ0416.1-2403 and MACSJ1149.5+2223

N. Laporte, F. E. Bauer, P. Troncoso-Iribarren +32

[abridged] The Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescope surveys of the Frontier Fields (FF) provide extremely deep images around six massive, strong-lensing clusters of galaxies. The ALM…

Young Galaxy Candidates in the Hubble Frontier Fields IV. MACS J1149.5+2223

W. Zheng, A. Zitrin, L. Infante +11

We search for high-redshift dropout galaxies behind the Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) galaxy cluster MACS J1149.5+2223, a powerful cosmic lens that has revealed a number of unique o…

Simulating the timescale dependent color variation in quasars with a revised inhomogeneous disk model

Zhen-Yi Cai, Jun-Xian Wang, Wei-Min Gu +4

The UV/optical variability of active galactic nuclei and quasars is useful for understanding the physics of the accretion disk and is gradually attributed to the stochastic fluctua…

Young Galaxy Candidates in the Hubble Frontier Fields. II. MACS,J0416-2403

Leopoldo Infante, Wei Zheng, Nicolas Laporte +14

We searched for z > 7 Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) in the optical-to-mid-infrared Hubble Frontier Field and associated parallel field observations of the strong-lensing cluster MACS…

CLASH: Extreme Emission Line Galaxies and Their Implication on Selection of High-Redshift Galaxies

Xingxing Huang, Wei Zheng, Junxian Wang +23

We utilize the CLASH (Cluster Lensing And Supernova survey with Hubble) observations of 25 clusters to search for extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs). The selections are carried…

A Geometrically Supported Candidate Multiply-Imaged by the Hubble Frontier Fields Cluster Abell 2744

Adi Zitrin, Wei Zheng, Tom Broadhurst +11

The deflection angles of lensed sources increase with their distance behind a given lens. We utilize this geometric effect to corroborate the photometric redshi…

Young Galaxy Candidates in the Hubble Frontier Fields. I. Abell 2744

W. Zheng, X. Shu, J. Moustakas +10

We report the discovery of 24 Lyman-break candidates at 7<z<10.5, in the Hubble Frontier Fields (HFF) imaging data of Abell 2744 (z=0.308), plus Spiter/IRAC data and archival ACS d…

A unique X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxy IRAS F01475-0740

Xing-Xing Huang, Jun-Xian Wang, Ying Tan +2

X-ray unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxies appear to have X-ray absorption column densities that are too low (NH < 10^22 cm-2) to explain the absence of broad emission lines in their opti…
