Exploring Multiwavelength AGN Variability with Swift Archival Data

Jonathan Gelbord, Caryl Gronwall, Dirk Grupe +2

We are conducting an archival Swift program to measure multiwavelength variability in active galactic nuclei (AGN). This variability information will provide constraints on the geo…

The Absolute Magnitudes of Type Ia Supernovae in the Ultraviolet

Peter J. Brown, Peter W. A. Roming, Peter Milne +19

We examine the absolute magnitudes and light-curve shapes of 14 nearby(redshift z = 0.004--0.027) Type Ia supernovae (SNe~Ia) observed in the ultraviolet (UV) with the Swift Ultrav…

SEGUE: A Spectroscopic Survey of 240,000 stars with g=14-20

II SEGUE Collaboration, Brian Yanny, Constance Rockosi +2

The SEGUE survey obtained 240,000 moderate resolution (R = 1800) spectra from 3900 - 9000 Angstroms of fainter Milky Way stars (14.0 < g < 20.3) of a wide variety of spectral types…

Ultraviolet Light Curves of Supernovae with Swift Uvot

Peter J. Brown, Stephen T. Holland, Stefan Immler +7

We present ultravioliet (UV) observations of supernovae (SNe) obtained with the UltraViolet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) on board the Swift spacecraft. This is the largest sample of UV…
