Project Lyman

Stephan R. McCandliss, Jeffrey W. Kruk, William P. Blair +20

We explore the design of a space mission, Project Lyman, which has the goal of quantifying the ionization history of the universe from the present epoch to a redshift of z ~ 3. Obs…

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…

Exploring Interstellar Titanium and Deuterium Abundances and Other Correlations

R. Lallement, G. Hebrard, B. Y. Welsh

The origin of the observed variability of the gas-phase D/H ratio in the local interstellar medium is still debated, and in particular the role of deuterium depletion onto dust gra…

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…
