Global amount of dust in the universe

Masataka Fukugita

It is pointed out that the total amount of dust in the Universe that is produced in stellar evolution in the entire cosmic time is consistent with the observed amount, if we add to…

Empirically Consistent Electroweak Radiative Corrections with the Two-Higgs Doublet Model

Masataka Fukugita, Takahiro Kubota

The electroweak radiative correction, which turned out to be marginal within the standard electroweak model having the minimal Higgs sector in view of the present experimental info…

The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: II. Stellar Metallicity

Zeljko Ivezic, Branimir Sesar, Mario Juric +50

Using effective temperature and metallicity derived from SDSS spectra for ~60,000 F and G type main sequence stars (0.2<g-r<0.6), we develop polynomial models for estimating these…

Cross-correlation Weak Lensing of SDSS Galaxy Clusters I: Measurements

Erin S. Sheldon, David E. Johnston, Ryan Scranton +12

This is the first in a series of papers on the weak lensing effect caused by clusters of galaxies in Sloan Digital Sky Survey. The photometrically selected cluster sample, known as…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. III. Constraints on Dark Energy from the Third Data Release Quasar Lens Catalog

Masamune Oguri, Naohisa Inada, Michael A. Strauss +31

We present cosmological results from the statistics of lensed quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Lens Search. By taking proper account of the selection function,…

Supernovae in the Subaru Deep Field: An Initial Sample, and Type Ia Rate, out to Redshift 1.6

Dovi Poznanski, Dan Maoz, Naoki Yasuda +12

Large samples of high-redshift supernovae (SNe) are potentially powerful probes of cosmic star formation, metal enrichment, and SN physics. We present initial results from a new de…
