The Global Schmidt law in star forming galaxies
- R. Kennicutt, Jr
- Physics
- 16 December 1997
Measurements of Hα, H I, and CO distributions in 61 normal spiral galaxies are combined with published far-infrared and CO observations of 36 infrared-selected starburst galaxies, in order to study… Expand
The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS. I. Stellar Number Density Distribution
- M. Juric, Z. Ivezic, +24 authors D. G. York
- Physics
- 18 October 2005
Using the photometric parallax method we estimate the distances to ~48 million stars detected by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and map their three-dimensional number density distribution in the… Expand
Evolution since Z = 0.5 of the morphology-density relation for clusters of galaxies
- A. Dressler, A. Oemler, +6 authors B. P. Sharples
- Physics
- 21 July 1997
Using traditional morphological classifications of galaxies in 10 intermediate-redshift (z similar to 0.5) clusters observed with WFPC2 on the Hubble Space Telescope, we derive relations between… Expand
Direct Oxygen Abundances for Low Luminosity LVL Galaxies
- D. Berg, E. Skillman, +8 authors B. Johnson
- Physics
- 30 May 2012
We present MMT spectroscopic observations of H II regions in 42 low luminosity galaxies in the Spitzer Local Volume Legacy survey. For 31 of the 42 galaxies in our sample, we were able to measure the… Expand
Optical Star Formation Rate Indicators
- J. Moustakas, R. Kennicutt, Jr, C. Tremonti
- Physics
- 25 November 2005
Using integrated optical spectrophotometry for 412 star-forming galaxies at z ~ 0, and fiber-aperture spectrophotometry for 120,846 SDSS galaxies at z ~ 0.1, we investigate the Hα λ6563, Hβ λ4861, [O… Expand
Multivalued logic gates for quantum computation
- A. Muthukrishnan, C. Stroud, Jr
- Physics
- 11 February 2000
We develop a multi-valued logic for quantum computing for use in multi-level quantum systems, and discuss the practical advantages of this approach for scaling up a quantum computer. Generalizing the… Expand
The Electromagnetic Counterpart of the Binary Neutron Star Merger LIGO/Virgo GW170817. II. UV, Optical, and Near-infrared Light Curves and Comparison to Kilonova Models

The Infrared Spectra of Very Large, Compact, Highly Symmetric, Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)
- C. Bauschlicher, Jr, E. Peeters, L. J. Allamandola
- Physics, Materials Science
- 7 February 2008
The mid-infrared spectra of large PAHs ranging from C54H18 to C130H28 are determined computationally using density functional theory. Trends in the band positions and intensities as a function of PAH… Expand
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey monitor telescope pipeline
- D. L. Tucker, S. Kent, +32 authors B. Yanny
- Physics
- 26 August 2006
The photometric calibration of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is a multi-step process which involves data from three different telescopes: the 1.0-m telescope at the US Naval Observatory (USNO),… Expand
Chandra Orion Ultradeep Project: Observations and Source Lists
