3D Dust Mapping Reveals that Orion Forms Part of a Large Ring of Dust
E. F. Schlafly, G. Green, D. P. Finkbeiner +12
The Orion Molecular Complex is the nearest site of ongoing high-mass star formation, making it one of the most extensively studied molecular complexes in the Galaxy. We have develo…
Learning from 25 years of the extensible N-Dimensional Data Format
Tim Jenness, David S. Berry, Malcolm J. Currie +8
The extensible N-Dimensional Data Format (NDF) was designed and developed in the late 1980s to provide a data model suitable for use in a variety of astronomy data processing appli…
Observational Constraints on the Catastrophic Disruption Rate of Small Main Belt Asteroids
Larry Denneau, Robert Jedicke, Alan Fitzsimmons +15
We have calculated 90% confidence limits on the steady-state rate of catastrophic disruptions of main belt asteroids in terms of the absolute magnitude at which one catastrophic di…
Wide, Cool and Ultracool Companions to Nearby Stars from Pan-STARRS1
Niall R. Deacon, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +18
We present the discovery of 61 wide (>5 arcsecond) separation, low-mass (stellar and substellar) companions to stars in the solar neighborhood identified from Pan-STARRS\,1 (PS1) d…
Spectroscopic Analysis in the Virtual Observatory Environment with SPLAT-VO
Petr Skoda, Peter W. Draper, Margarida Castro Neves +2
SPLAT-VO is a powerful graphical tool for displaying, comparing, modifying and analyzing astronomical spectra, as well as searching and retrieving spectra from services around the…
Supervoid Origin of the Cold Spot in the Cosmic Microwave Background
András Kovács, István Szapudi, Benjamin R. Granett +13
We use a WISE-2MASS-Pan-STARRS1 galaxy catalog to search for a supervoid in the direction of the Cosmic Microwave Background Cold Spot. We obtain photometric redshifts using our mu…
