Probing Shock Breakout with Serendipitous GALEX Detections of Two SNLS Type II-P Supernovae
Suvi Gezari, Luc Dessart, Stephane Basa +13
We report the serendipitous detection by GALEX of fast (<1 day) rising (>1 mag) UV emission from two Type II plateau (II-P) supernovae (SNe) at z=0.185 and 0.324 discovered by the…
Lyman alpha emitting galaxies at 0.2 < z < 0.35 from GALEX spectroscopy
Jean-Michel Deharveng, Todd Small, Tom A. Barlow +19
The GALEX (Galaxy Evolution Explorer) spectroscopic survey mode, with a resolution of about 8 A in the FUV (1350 - 1750 A) and about 20 A in the NUV (1950 - 2750 A) is used for a s…
Ultraviolet through Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions from 1000 SDSS Galaxies: Dust Attenuation
Benjamin D. Johnson, David Schiminovich, Mark Seibert +19
The meaningful comparison of models of galaxy evolution to observations is critically dependent on the accurate treatment of dust attenuation. To investigate dust absorption and em…
A Search for Extended Ultraviolet Disk (XUV-disk) Galaxies in the Local Universe
David A. Thilker, Luciana Bianchi, Gerhardt Meurer +26
We have initiated a search for extended ultraviolet disk (XUV-disk) galaxies in the local universe. Herein, we compare GALEX UV and visible--NIR images of 189 nearby (D40 Mpc) S…
Ultraviolet, Optical, and Infrared Constraints on Models of Stellar Populations and Dust Attenuation
Benjamin D. Johnson, David Schiminovich, Mark Seibert +19
The color of galaxies is a fundamental property, easily measured, that constrains models of galaxies and their evolution. Dust attenuation and star formation history (SFH) are the…
UV/Optical Detections of Candidate Tidal Disruption Events by GALEX and CFHTLS
S. Gezari, S. Basa, D. C. Martin +11
We present two luminous UV/optical flares from the nuclei of apparently inactive early-type galaxies at z=0.37 and 0.33 that have the radiative properties of a flare from the tidal…
