Cosmological Parameters 2006
Ariel G. Sanchez, Carlton M. Baugh
Recent measurements of the cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB), particularly when combined with other datasets, have revolutionised our knowledge of the values of the basic…
The Optical and Near-Infrared Properties of 2837 Quasars in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS)
Kuenley Chiu, Gordon T. Richards, Paul C. Hewett +1
The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) is the first of a new generation of hemispheric imaging projects to extend the work of the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) by reaching…
Revision of VLT/UVES constraints on a varying fine-structure constant
Michael T. Murphy, John K. Webb, Victor V. Flambaum
We critically review the current null results on a varying fine-structure constant, alpha, derived from VLT/UVES quasar absorption spectra, focusing primarily on the many-multiplet…
Soft-excess in ULX spectra: disc emission or wind absorption?
A. C. Goncalves, R. Soria
We assess the claim that Ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) host intermediate-mass black holes (BH) by comparing the cool disc-blackbody model with a range of other models, namell…
Remnants of compact binary mergers
W. Domainko, M. Ruffert
We investigate the long-term evolution and observability of remnants originating from the merger of compact binary systems and discuss the differences to supernova remnants. Compac…
Spectroscopic search for new SW Sextantis stars in the 3-4 hour orbital period range -- I
P. Rodriguez-Gil, L. Schmidtobreick, B. T. Gaensicke
[Abridged] We report on time-resolved optical spectroscopy of ten non-eclipsing nova-like cataclysmic variables in the orbital period range between 3 and 4 hours. Of the ten system…
