Pushing the precision limit of ground-based eclipse photometry
M. Gillon, D. R. Anderson, B. -O. Demory +4
Until recently, it was considered by many that ground-based photometry could not reach the high cadence sub-mmag regime because of the presence of the atmosphere. Indeed, high freq…
Spatial decomposition of on-nucleus spectra of quasar host galaxies
Knud Jahnke, Lutz Wisotzki, Frederic Courbin +1
In order to study the host galaxies of type 1 (broad-line) quasars, we present a semi-analytic modelling method to decompose the on-nucleus spectra of quasars into nuclear and host…
Are WC9 Wolf-Rayet stars in colliding-wind binaries?
P. M. Williams, K. A. van der Hucht, G. Rauw
We present results from a spectroscopic search for massive companions to dust-making Galactic WC9 stars as a step to testing the paradigm that dust formation in these systems requi…
Large scale correlations of quasar polarisation vectors: Hints of extreme scale structures?
Remi A. Cabanac, Damien Hutsemekers, Dominique Sluse +1
A survey measuring quasar polarization vectors has been started in two regions towards the North and South Galactic Poles. Here, We review the discovery of significant correlations…
Primordial constraint on the spatial dependence of the Newton constant
V. Boucher, J. -M. Gerard, P. Vandergheynst +1
A Nordtvedt effect at cosmological scales affects the acoustic oscillations imprinted in the cosmic microwave background. The gravitational baryonic mass density of the universe is…
Cosmic microwave background constraints on the strong equivalence principle
V. Boucher, J. -M. Gerard, P. Vandergheynst +1
We study the effect of a violation of the strong equivalence principle (SEP) on the cosmic microwave background (CMB). Such a violation would modify the weight of baryons in the pr…
