Occultations from an active accretion disk in a 72 day detached post-Algol system detected by K2

G. Zhou, S. Rappaport, L. Nelson +28

Disks in binary systems can cause exotic eclipsing events. MWC 882 (BD-22 4376, EPIC 225300403) is such a disk-eclipsing system identified from observations during Campaign 11 of t…

A Measurement of the Correlation of Galaxy Surveys with CMB Lensing Convergence Maps from the South Pole Telescope

L. E. Bleem, A. van Engelen, G. P. Holder +68

We compare cosmic microwave background lensing convergence maps derived from South Pole Telescope (SPT) data with galaxy survey data from the Blanco Cosmology Survey, the Wide-fiel…

Recent Structural Evolution of Early-Type Galaxies: Size Growth from z=1 to z=0

Arjen van der Wel, Bradford P. Holden, Andrew W. Zirm +4

Strong size and internal density evolution of early-type galaxies between z~2 and the present has been reported by several authors. Here we analyze samples of nearby and distant (z…

Confirmation of the remarkable compactness of massive quiescent galaxies at z~2.3: early-type galaxies did not form in a simple monolithic collapse

Pieter van Dokkum, Marijn Franx, Mariska Kriek +9

Using deep near-infrared spectroscopy Kriek et al. (2006) found that ~45% of massive galaxies at z~2.3 have evolved stellar populations and little or no ongoing star formation. Her…

An Overdensity of Galaxies near the Most Distant Radio-Loud Quasar

W. Zheng, R. Overzier, R. J. Bouwens +41

A five square arcminute region around the luminous radio-loud quasar SDSS J0836+0054 (z=5.8) hosts a wealth of associated galaxies, characterized by very red (1.3 < i_775 - z_{850}…

The Galaxy Population of Cluster RXJ0848+4453 at z=1.27

P. G. van Dokkum, S. A. Stanford, B. P. Holden +3

We present a study of the galaxy population in the cluster RXJ0848+4453 at z=1.27, using deep HST NICMOS and WFPC2 images. We morphologically classify all galaxies to K_s=20.6 that…
