The near-IR shape of the big blue bump emission from quasars: under the hot dust emission
Makoto Kishimoto, Robert Antonucci, Omer Blaes
One primary difficulty in understanding the nature of the putative accretion disk in the central engine of AGNs is that some of its key intrinsic spectral signatures are buried und…
Optical spectroscopy and X-ray detections of a sample of quasars and AGN selected in the mid-infrared from two Spitzer wide-area surveys
M. Lacy, A. Petric, A. Sajina +5
We present optical spectroscopy of a sample of 77 luminous AGN and quasars selected on the basis of their mid-infrared colors. Our objects are selected from the Spitzer Extragalact…
ARCADE: Absolute Radiometer for Cosmology, Astrophysics, and Diffuse Emission
A. Kogut, D. Fixsen, S. Fixsen +8
The Absolute Radiometer for Cosmology, Astrophysics, and Diffuse Emission (ARCADE) is a balloon-borne instrument designed to measure the temperature of the cosmic microwave backgro…
Simulations of polarized dust emission
V. -M. Pelkonen, M. Juvela, P. Padoan
Our aim is to study the polarization of thermal dust emission to see if the alignment of grain by radiative torques could explain the observed relation between the degree of polari…
New southern blue compact dwarf galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey
P. Papaderos, N. G. Guseva, Y. I. Izotov +3
Aiming to find new extremely metal-deficient star-forming galaxies we extracted from the Two-Degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) 100K Data Release 14 emission-line galaxie…
The properties of the "standard" type Ic supernova 1994I from spectral models
D. N. Sauer, P. A. Mazzali, J. Deng +3
The properties of the type Ic supernova SN 1994I are re-investigated. This object is often referred to as a "standard SN Ic" although it exhibited an extremely fast light curve and…
