THE ELEVENTH AND TWELFTH DATA RELEASES OF THE SLOAN DIGITAL SKY SURVEY: FINAL DATA FROM SDSS-III
- S. Alam, F. D. Albareti, Key Laboratory of Optical Astronomy
- Physics
- 5 January 2015
The third generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-III) took data from 2008 to 2014 using the original SDSS wide-field imager, the original and an upgraded multi-object fiber-fed optical…
The mass of the neutron star in Vela X-1 and tidally induced non-radial oscillations in GP Vel
- H. Quaintrell, A. Norton, The Netherlands.
- Physics, Geology
- 14 January 2003
We report new radial velocity observations of GP Vel / HD 77581, the optical companion to the eclipsing X-ray pulsar Vela X-1. Using data spanning more than two complete orbits of the system, we…
The evolution of stellar mass and the implied star formation history
- S. Wilkins, N. Trentham, Australia.
- Physics, Geology
- 10 January 2008
We present a compilation of measurements of the stellar mass density as a function of redshift. Using this stellar mass history we obtain a star formation history and compare it to the instantaneous…
The Australia Telescope Compact Array Broadband Backend (CABB): Description & First Results ⋆
Here we describe the Compact Array Broadband Backend (CABB) and present first results obtained with the upgraded Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The 16-fold increase in observing bandwidth,…
Zero-metallicity stars I. Evolution at constant mass
- P. Marigo, L. Girardi, C. Chiosi, Peter R. Wood Dip. Astron. Padova, Mssso, Australia.
- Physics
- 14 February 2001
We present extensive evolutionary models of stars with initial zero-metallicity, covering a large range of initial masses (i.e. 0:7 M M 100 M). Calculations are carried out at constant mass, with…
THE MAGELLANIC MOPRA ASSESSMENT (MAGMA). I. THE MOLECULAR CLOUD POPULATION OF THE LARGE MAGELLANIC CLOUD
We present the properties of an extensive sample of molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) mapped at 11 pc resolution in the CO(1–0) line. Targets were chosen based on a limiting CO…
Biases for neutron star mass, radius and distance measurements from Eddington-limited X-ray bursts
- D. Galloway, F. Ozel, Az
- Physics
- 4 December 2007
Eddington-limited X-ray bursts from neutron stars can be used in conjunction with other spectroscopic observations to measure neutron star masses, radii and distances. In order to quantify some of…
Molecules at z = 0.89 - A 4-mm-rest-frame absorption-line survey toward PKS 1830−211
We present the results of a 7 mm spectral survey of molecular absorption lines originating in the disk of a z = 0.89 spiral galaxy located in front of the quasar PKS 1830-211. Our survey was…
Erratum: Recovering galaxy stellar population properties from broad-band spectral energy distribution fitting
- J. Pforr, C. Maraston, Australia.
- Physics
- 15 March 2012
This is an erratum to the paper entitled ‘Recovering galaxy stellar population properties from broad-band spectral energy distribution fitting’, published in MNRAS, 422, 3285 (2012).
The density variance–Mach number relation in supersonic turbulence – I. Isothermal, magnetized gas
- F. Molina, S. Glover, Australia.
- Physics
- 9 March 2012
It is widely accepted that supersonic, magnetized turbulence plays a fundamental role for star formation in molecular clouds. It produces the initial dense gas seeds out of which new stars can form.…
