First-Year Spectroscopy for the SDSS-II Supernova Survey
Chen Zheng, Roger W. Romani, Masao Sako +77
This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band…
Average Properties of a Large Sample of z_abs ~ z_em associated Mg II Absorption Line Systems
D. Vanden Berk, P. Khare, D. G. York +16
We have studied a sample of 415 associated (z_ab z_em; relative velocity with respect to QSO <3000km/s) Mg II absorption systems with 1.0<=z_ab<=1.86, in the spectra of SDSS DR3 QS…
A Measurement of the Rate of type-Ia Supernovae at Redshift 0.1 from the First Season of the SDSS-II Supernova Survey
Benjamin Dilday, R. Kessler, J. A. Frieman +50
We present a measurement of the rate of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) from the first of three seasons of data from the SDSS-II Supernova Survey. For this measurement, we include 17 S…
The chemical compositions of 10 new sub-DLAs and strong Lyman-limit systems at z < 1.5
Joseph D. Meiring, Varsha P. Kulkarni, James T. Lauroesch +4
We present chemical abundance measurements from medium resolution observations of 8 sub-damped Lyman-alpha absorber and 2 strong Lyman-limit systems at z < 1.5 observed with the MI…
Metal Absorption Systems in Spectra of Pairs of QSOs
David Tytler, Mark Gleed, Carl Melis +6
We present the first large sample of absorption systems in paired QSOs consisting of 691 absorption systems in the spectra of 310 QSOs including 170 pairings. All these absorption…
Lunar Outgassing, Transient Phenomena and The Return to The Moon, III: Observational and Experimental Techniques
Arlin P. S. Crotts
In Papers II and III we show that Transient Lunar Phenomena (TLPs) are likely related to lunar outgassing, albeit in ways not fully understood. Here we propose a path forward, in w…
