The Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
K. Abazajian et al.
This paper describes the Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). This release, containing data taken up through June 2003, includes imaging data in five bands ov…
High Energy Observations of XRF 030723: Evidence for an Off-axis Gamma-Ray Burst?
N. R. Butler, T. Sakamoto, M. Suzuki +34
We report High Energy Transient Explorer 2 (HETE-2) Wide Field X-ray Monitor/French Gamma Telescope observations of XRF030723 along with observations of the XRF afterglow made usin…
Discovery of New Ultracool White Dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Evalyn Gates, Geza Gyuk, Hugh C. Harris +14
We report the discovery of five very cool white dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Four are ultracool, exhibiting strong collision induced absorption (CIA) from molecul…
Type Ia Supernovae: An Asymmetric Deflagration Model
A. C. Calder, T. Plewa, N. Vladimirova +2
We present the first high-resolution three-dimensional simulations of the deflagration phase of Type Ia supernovae that treat the entire massive white dwarf. We report the results…
A Catalog of Spectroscopically Identified White Dwarf Stars in the First Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
S. J. Kleinman, Hugh C. Harris, Daniel J. Eisenstein +23
We present the full spectroscopic white dwarf and hot subdwarf sample from the SDSS first data release, DR1. We find 2551 white dwarf stars of various types, 240 hot subdwarf stars…
Previously Claimed(/Unclaimed) X-ray Emission Lines in High Resolution Afterglow Spectra
N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +5
We review the significance determination for emission lines in the Chandra HETGS spectrum for GRB020813, and we report on a search for additional lines in high resolution Chandra s…
Optical and X-ray Observations of the Afterglow to XRF030723
N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +6
The X-ray-flash XRF030723 was detected by the HETE satellite and rapidly disseminated, allowing for an optical transient to be detected ~1 day after the burst. We discuss observati…
Chandra Observations of the Optically Dark GRB030528
N. Butler, A. Dullighan, P. Ford +5
The X-ray-rich GRB030528 was detected by the HETE satellite and its localization was rapidly disseminated. However, early optical observations failed to detect a counterpart source…
HETE Observations of the Gamma-Ray Burst GRB030329: Evidence for an Underlying Soft X-ray Component
R. Vanderspek, T. Sakamoto, C. Barraud +30
An exceptionally intense gamma-ray burst, GRB030329, was detected and localized by the instruments on board the High Energy Transient Explorer satellite (HETE) at 11:37:14 UT on 29…
A New Giant Stellar Structure in the Outer Halo of M31
Daniel B. Zucker, Alexei Y. Kniazev, Eric F. Bell +17
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has revealed an overdensity of luminous red giant stars ~ 3 degrees (40 projected kpc) to the northeast of M31, which we have called Andromeda NE. The…
