Specific SFR profiles in nearby spiral galaxies: quantifying the inside-out formation of disks

J. C. Muñoz-Mateos, A. Gil de Paz, S. Boissier +4

We present specific Star Formation Rate (sSFR) radial profiles for a sample of 161 relatively face-on spiral galaxies from the GALEX Atlas of Nearby Galaxies. The sSFR profiles are…

Groups of Galaxies in the Two Micron All-Sky Redshift Survey

Aidan C. Crook, John P. Huchra, Nathalie Martimbeau +3

We present the results of applying a percolation algorithm to the initial release of the Two Micron All-Sky Survey Extended Source Catalog, using subsequently measured redshifts fo…

Reconstructed Density and Velocity Fields from the 2MASS Redshift Survey

Pirin Erdogdu, Ofer Lahav, John P. Huchra +13

We present the reconstructed real-space density and the predicted velocity fields from the Two Mass Redshift Survey (2MRS). The 2MRS is the densest all-sky redshift survey to date…

A Near-Infrared and X-ray Study of W49B: A Wind Cavity Explosion

Jonathan W. Keohane, William T. Reach, Jeonghee Rho +1

We present near-infrared narrow-band images of the supernova remnant W49B, taken with the WIRC instrument on the Hale 200 inch telescope on Mt. Palomar. The 1.64 micron [Fe II] ima…

First Evidence of a Precessing Jet Excavating a Protostellar Envelope

Jason E. Ybarra, Mary Barsony, Karl E. Haisch +3

We present new, sensitive, near-infrared images of the Class I protostar, Elias 29, in the Ophiuchus cloud core. To explore the relationship between the infall envelope and the out…

Infrared Properties of Close Pairs of Galaxies

Margaret J. Geller, Scott J. Kenyon, Elizabeth J. Barton +2

We discuss spectroscopy and infrared photometry for a complete sample of ~ 800 galaxies in close pairs objectively selected from the CfA2 redshift survey. We use 2MASS to compare n…
