Kinematics of the Ionized Halo of NGC 5775

G. H. Heald, R. J. Rand, R. A. Benjamin +2

Studies of the kinematics of gaseous halos in some spiral galaxies have shown that the rotational velocity of the gas decreases with height above the midplane (z). This vertical ve…

In Search of the Dark Ages -- An Experimental Challenge

J. Bland-Hawthorn, P. E. J. Nulsen

Most direct source detections beyond z~7 are likely to arise from wide-field narrowband surveys of Ly-a emission in the J band. For this to be true, the Ly-a emission must somehow…

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey: Final Data Release

Matthew Colless, Bruce A. Peterson, Carole Jackson +25

The 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS) has obtained spectra for 245591 sources, mainly galaxies, brighter than a nominal extinction-corrected magnitude limit of b_J=19.45. Reliabl…

Tomography of high-redshift clusters with OSIRIS

A. Fernandez-Soto, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. I. Gonzalez-Serrano +1

High-redshift clusters of galaxies are amongst the largest cosmic structures. Their properties and evolution are key ingredients to our understanding of cosmology: to study the gro…

H-alpha Distance Constraints for High-Velocity Clouds in the Galactic Halo

J. Bland-Hawthorn, P. R. Maloney

We present some developments in determining H-alpha distances to high-velocity clouds (HVCs) in the Galactic halo. Until recently, it was difficult to assess the nature and origin…

Tunable Imaging Filters in Astronomy

J. Bland-Hawthorn

While tunable filters are a recent development in night time astronomy, they have long been used in other physical sciences, e.g. solar physics, remote sensing and underwater commu…
