GRB 070714B - Discovery of the Highest Spectroscopically Confirmed Short Burst Redshift
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, A. J. Levan +10
We detect the optical afterglow and host galaxy of GRB 070714B. Our observations of the afterglow show an initial plateau in the lightcurve for approximately the first 5 to 25 minu…
The MAPPINGS III Library of Fast Radiative Shock Models
Mark G. Allen, Brent A. Groves, Michael A. Dopita +2
We present a new library of fully-radiative shock models calculated with the MAPPINGS III shock and photoionization code. The library consists of grids of models with shock velocit…
Metallicity Calibrations and the Mass-Metallicity Relation for Star-Forming Galaxies
Lisa J. Kewley, Sara L. Ellison
(Abridged) We investigate the effect of metallicity calibrations, AGN classification, and aperture covering fraction on the local mass-metallicity (MZ) relation using 27,730 star-f…
Modelling the Pan-Spectral Energy Distribution of Starburst Galaxies: IV The Controlling Parameters of the Starburst SED
B. Groves, M. Dopita, R. Sutherland +5
We combine the the stellar spectral synthesis code Starburst99, the nebular modelling code MAPPINGSIII, and a 1-D dynamical evolution model of HII regions around massive clusters o…
MMT Extremely Metal Poor Galaxy Survey I. An Efficient Technique to Identify Metal Poor Galaxies
Warren R. Brown, Lisa J. Kewley, Margaret J. Geller
We demonstrate a successful strategy for identifying extremely metal poor galaxies. Our preliminary survey of 24 candidates contains 10 metal poor galaxies of which 4 have 12+log(O…
The Host Galaxy of GRB 060505: Host ISM Properties
Emily M. Levesque, Lisa J. Kewley
We investigate the ISM environment of GRB 060505. Using optical emission-line diagnostic ratios, we compare the ISM properties of the GRB 060505 host region with the hosts of unamb…
