Transformation from SDSS Photometric System to Johnson-Morgan-Cousins System in HK Survey
Chongshan Zhao, Heidi Jo Newberg
We calculate the transformation from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric system to the Johnson-Morgan-Cousins System in the HK Survey. This research was done in late 20…
The Halo of the Milky Way
Heidi Jo Newberg, Brian Yanny
We show that the star counts in the spheroid of the Milky Way are not symmetric about the l=0, l=180 deg. plane. The minimum counts are found towards l=155 deg. The Galactic longit…
New Resources to Explore the Old Galaxy: Mining the SDSS
C. Allende Prieto, T. C. Beers, Y. Li +3
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is collecting photometry and intermediate resolution spectra for ~ 10**5 stars in the thick-disk and stellar halo of the Milky Way. This massive…
The Extended Tidal Tails of Palomar 5: Tracers of the Galactic Potential
Michael Odenkirchen, Eva K. Grebel, Hans-Walter Rix +4
We detected extended, curved stellar tidal tails emanating from the sparse, disrupting halo globular cluster Pal 5, which cover 10 degrees on the sky. These streams allow us to inf…
Palomar 5 and its tidal tails: New observational results
M. Odenkirchen, E. K. Grebel, W. Dehnen +4
Sloan Digital Sky Survey data for the field of the globular cluster Pal 5 reveal the existence of a long massive stream of tidal debris spanning an arc of 10 degrees on the sky. Pa…
The Chandra Multi-wavelength Project (ChaMP): a serendipitous survey with Chandra archival data
B. J. Wilkes, P. Green, R. Brissenden +34
The launch of the Chandra X-ray Observatory in July 1999 opened a new era in X-ray astronomy. Its unprecedented, <0.5" spatial resolution and low background are providing views of…
