The Fourteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic data from the extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey and from the second phase of the Apache Point…
- Bela Abolfathi, D. Aguado, +344 authors H. Zou
- Physics, Geography
- 28 July 2017
The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) has been in operation since 2014 July. This paper describes the second data release from this phase, and the 14th from SDSS overall… Expand
Cosmic-Ray Acceleration at the Forward Shock in Tycho’s Supernova Remnant: Evidence from Chandra X-Ray Observations
- J. S. Warren, J. Hughes, +7 authors P. Slane
- Physics
- 20 July 2005
We present evidence for cosmic-ray acceleration at the forward shock in Tycho's supernova remnant (SNR) from three X-ray observables: (1) the proximity of the contact discontinuity to the forward… Expand
Constraints on the physics of type ia supernovae from the x-ray spectrum of the tycho supernova remnant
- C. Badenes, K. Borkowski, J. Hughes, U. Hwang, Eduardo Bravo
- Physics
- 4 November 2005
We explore the relationship between the models for progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae and the properties of the supernova remnants that evolve after the explosion. Most models for Type Ia… Expand
Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV: Mapping the Milky Way, Nearby Galaxies and the Distant Universe
- M. Blanton, Matthew A. Bershady, +350 authors H. Zou
- Physics
- 28 February 2017
We describe the Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV), a project encompassing three major spectroscopic programs. The Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment 2 (APOGEE-2) is observing… Expand
The 13th Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: First Spectroscopic Data from the SDSS-IV Survey Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory
- S. C. F. D. Albareti, C. Prieto, +334 authors H. Zou
- Physics
- 5 August 2016
The fourth generation of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-IV) began observations in 2014 July. It pursues three core programs: the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment 2… Expand
The Persistence of Memory, or How the X-Ray Spectrum of SNR 0509–67.5 Reveals the Brightness of Its Parent Type Ia Supernova
- C. Badenes, J. Hughes, G. Cassam-Chenai, E. Bravo
- Physics
- 30 January 2008
We examine the dynamics and X-ray spectrum of the young Type Ia supernova remnant 0509–67.5 in the context of the recent results obtained from the optical spectroscopy of its light echo. Our goal is… Expand
The Hot and Energetic Universe: A White Paper presenting the science theme motivating the Athena+ mission
- K. Nandra, D. Barret, +237 authors I. Zhuravleva
- Physics
- 1 June 2013
This White Paper, submitted to the recent ESA call for science themes to define its future large missions, advocates the need for a transformational leap in our understanding of two key questions in… Expand
Are the Models for Type Ia Supernova Progenitors Consistent with the Properties of Supernova Remnants
- C. Badenes, J. Hughes, Eduardo Bravo, N. Langer
- Physics
- 13 March 2007
We explore the relationship between the models for progenitor systems of Type Ia supernovae and the properties of the supernova remnants that evolve after the explosion. Most models for Type Ia… Expand
EVIDENCE FOR PARTICLE ACCELERATION TO THE KNEE OF THE COSMIC RAY SPECTRUM IN TYCHO'S SUPERNOVA REMNANT
- K. Eriksen, J. Hughes, +7 authors P. Slane
- Physics
- 7 January 2011
Supernova remnants (SNRs) have long been assumed to be the source of cosmic rays (CRs) up to the knee of the CR spectrum at 1015 eV, accelerating particles to relativistic energies in their blast… Expand
A Million Second Chandra View of Cassiopeia A
- U. Hwang, J. M. Laming, +20 authors J. S. Warren
- Physics
- 30 September 2004
We introduce a million second observation of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A with the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. The bipolar structure of the Si-rich ejecta (northeast jet and southwest… Expand
