The NuMoon experiment: first results
S. Buitink, J. Bacelar, R. Braun +7
The NuMoon project uses the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope to search for short radio pulses from the Moon. These pulses are created when an ultra high energy cosmic ray or ne…
The WSRT virgo filament survey
Attila Popping, Robert Braun
In the last few years the realization has emerged that the universal baryons are almost equally distributed by mass in three components: (1) galactic concentrations, (2) a warm-hot…
The 8gr8 Cygnus survey for new pulsars and RRATs
E. Rubio-Herrera, R. Braun, G. Janssen +2
We are currently undertaking a survey to search for new pulsars and the recently found Rotating RAdio Transcients (RRATs) in the Cygnus OB complex. The survey uses the Westerbrok S…
An Initial Look at the FIR-Radio Correlation within M51a using Spitzer
Eric J. Murphy, Lee Armus, George Helou +2
We present an initial look at the FIR-radio correlation within the star-forming disk of M51a using {\it Spitzer} MIPS imaging, observed as part of the {\it Spitzer} Infrared Nearby…
Imaging the Low Red-shift Cosmic Web
Robert Braun, David Thilker
The first image of a Cosmic Web, Lyman Limit System has just been made in HI emission within the Local Group filament connecting M31 and M33. The corresponding HI distribution func…
The Neutral Medium
Robert Braun
We consider the physical conditions of the neutral medium within, and in the environments of, galaxies. The basic physical and morphological properties of the neutral medium within…
