Cepheid Standard Candles
N. R. Tanvir
Thanks to HST, there are now many galaxies with Cepheid distances and these provide the main platform for the calibration of the secondary distance indicators. I review recent prog…
The Evolution of Barred Spiral Galaxies in the Hubble Deep Fields North and South
R. G. Abraham, M. R. Merrifield, R. S. Ellis +2
The frequency of barred spiral galaxies as a function of redshift contains important information on the gravitational influence of stellar disks in their dark matter halos and also…
SCUBA sub-millimeter observations of gamma-ray bursters. I. GRB 970508, 971214, 980326, 980329, 980519, 980703
I. A. Smith, R. P. J. Tilanus, J. van Paradijs +7
We discuss the first results of our ongoing program of Target of Opportunity observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) using the SCUBA instrument on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope…
The Formation and Evolution of LMC Globular Clusters: the database
S. F. Beaulieu, R. Elson, G. Gilmore +3
We present details of the database from a large Cycle 7 HST project to study the formation and evolution of rich star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (see Elson et al., this…
The Star Formation History of the Hubble Sequence: Spatially Resolved Colour Distributions of Intermediate Redshift Galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field
R. G. Abraham, R. S. Ellis, A. C. Fabian +2
We analyse the spatially resolved colours of distant galaxies of known redshift in the Hubble Deep Field, using a new technique based on matching resolved four-band internal colour…
Discovery of the peculiar supernova 1998bw in the error box of GRB980425
T. J. Galama, P. M. Vreeswijk, J. van Paradijs +42
The discovery of X-ray, optical and radio afterglows of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and the measurements of the distances to some of them have established that these events come from G…
