Signatures of unresolved binaries in stellar spectra: implications for spectral fitting
Kareem El-Badry, Hans-Walter Rix, Yuan-Sen Ting +5
The observable spectrum of an unresolved binary star system is a superposition of two single-star spectra. Even without a detectable velocity offset between the two stellar compone…
Physical properties of 15 quasars at
C. Mazzucchelli, E. Bañados, B. P. Venemans +21
Quasars are galaxies hosting accreting supermassive black holes; due to their brightness, they are unique probes of the early universe. To date, only few quasars have been reported…
Joint Bayesian Estimation of Quasar Continua and the Lyman-Alpha Forest Flux Probability Distribution Function
Anna-Christina Eilers, Joseph F. Hennawi, Khee-Gan Lee
We present a new Bayesian algorithm making use of Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling that allows us to simultaneously estimate the unknown continuum level of each quasar in an ensem…
