Ground-based variability surveys towards Centaurus A: worthwhile or not?
Jelte T. A. de Jong, Konrad H. Kuijken, Philippe Heraudeau
Context: Difference imaging has proven to be a powerful technique for detecting and monitoring the variability of unresolved stellar sources in M 31. Using this technique in survey…
Dark-Matter Content of Early-Type Galaxies with Planetary Nebulae
N. R. Napolitano, A. J. Romanowsky, L. Coccato +10
We examine the dark matter properties of nearby early-type galaxies using planetary nebulae (PNe) as mass probes. We have designed a specialised instrument, the Planetary Nebula Sp…
Microlensing by Cosmic Strings
Konrad Kuijken, Xavier Siemens, Tanmay Vachaspati
We consider the signature and detectability of gravitational microlensing of distant quasars by cosmic strings. Because of the simple image configuration such events will have a ch…
