Star Formation In The Cluster Merger DLSCL J0916.2+2953
A. S. Mansheim, B. C. Lemaux, W. A. Dawson +3
We investigate star formation in DLSCL J0916.2+2953, a dissociative merger of two clusters at z=0.53 that has progressed Gyr since first pass-through. We attemp…
Blind Detection of Ultra-faint Streaks with a Maximum Likelihood Method
William A. Dawson, Michael D. Schneider, Chandrika Kamath
We have developed a maximum likelihood source detection method capable of detecting ultra-faint streaks with surface brightnesses approximately an order of magnitude fainter than t…
Synthesis of Disparate Optical Imaging Data for Space Domain Awareness
Michael D. Schneider, William A. Dawson
We present a Bayesian algorithm to combine optical imaging of unresolved objects from distinct epochs and observation platforms for orbit determination and tracking. By propagating…
MC: Dynamical Analysis of the Merging Galaxy Cluster MACS J1149.5+2223
Nathan Golovich, William A. Dawson, David Wittman +3
We present an analysis of the merging cluster MACS J1149.5+2223 using archival imaging from Subaru/Suprime-Cam and multi-object spectroscopy from Keck/DEIMOS and Gemini/GMOS. We em…
