Towards detection of the molecular parity violation in chiral Ru(acac) and Os(acac)

Marit R. Fiechter, Pi A. B. Haase, Nidal Saleh +9

We present a theory-experiment investigation of the helically chiral compounds Ru(acac) and Os(acac) as candidates for the next-generation experiments for detection of mole…

Intrinsic Shapes of Elliptical Galaxies

David Merritt

Tests for the intrinsic shape of the luminosity distribution in elliptical galaxies are discussed, with an emphasis on the uncertainties. Recent determinations of the ellipticity f…

Evidence from Intrinsic Shapes for Two Families of Elliptical Galaxies

Benoit Tremblay, David Merritt

Bright elliptical galaxies have a markedly different distribution of Hubble types than faint ellipticals; the division occurs near M_B=-20 and bright ellipticals are rounder on ave…

The Frequency Function of Elliptical Galaxy Intrinsic Shapes

Benoit Tremblay, David Merritt

We present fully nonparametric estimates of the frequency function of elliptical galaxy intrinsic shapes under the axisymmetric and triaxial hypotheses. If elliptical galaxies are…

Planetary Nebulae as Probes of Dark Matter in NGC 3384

Benoit Tremblay, David Merritt, T. B. Williams

We have obtained radial velocities of 68 planetary nebulae surrounding the SB0 galaxy NGC 3384 in the Leo I group, using the CTIO 4 m telescope and the Rutgers Fabry-Perot interfer…
