Improved parameters for the transiting hot Jupiters WASP-4b and WASP-5b
M. Gillon, B. Smalley, L. Hebb +6
The gaseous giant planets WASP-4b and WASP-5b are transiting 12 magnitude solar-type stars in the Southern hemisphere. The aim of the present work is to refine the parameters of th…
A multi-wavelength survey of AGN in the XMM-LSS field: I. Quasar selection via the KX technique
Th. Nakos, J. P. Willis, S. Andreon +16
AIMS: We present a sample of candidate quasars selected using the KX-technique. The data cover 0.68 deg^2 of the X-ray Multi-Mirror (XMM) Large-Scale Structure (LSS) survey area wh…
Modelling the dynamical evolution of the Bootes dwarf spheroidal galaxy
M. Fellhauer, M. I. Wilkinson, N. W. Evans +5
We investigate a wide range of possible evolutionary histories for the recently discovered Bootes dwarf spheroidal galaxy, a Milky Way satellite. By means of N-body simulations we…
High redshift FRII radio sources: large-scale X-ray environment
Elena Belsole, Diana M. Worrall, Martin J. Hardcastle +1
We investigate the properties of the environment around 20 powerful radio galaxies and quasars at redshifts between 0.45 and 1. Using XMM-Newton and Chandra observations we probe t…
The evolution of magnetic tower jets in the laboratory
A. Ciardi, S. V. Lebedev, A. Frank +12
The evolution of laboratory produced magnetic jets is followed numerically through three-dimensional, non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The experiments are designed to stu…
Testing the locality of transport in self-gravitating accretion discs - II. The massive disc case
G. Lodato, W. K. M. Rice
In this paper, we extend our previous analysis (Lodato & Rice 2004) of the transport properties induced by gravitational instabilities in cooling, gaseous accretion discs to the ca…
