The JCMT Legacy Survey: The Challenges of the JCMT Science Archive
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008)The JCMT Legacy Survey (JLS) is an ambitious programme that will provide the first large-scale survey of the submillimetre sky. From planetary science through to cosmology, the first phase of the campaign will be using the ... -
The JCMT nearby galaxies legacy survey - IV. Velocity dispersions in the molecular interstellar medium in spiral galaxies
(2011)An analysis of large-area CO J = 3-2 maps from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope for 12 nearby spiral galaxies reveals low velocity dispersions in the molecular component of the interstellar medium. The three lowest ... -
The JCMT nearby galaxies legacy survey - V. The CO(J=3-2) distribution and molecular outflow in NGC 4631
(2011)We have made the first map of CO(J = 3-2) emission covering the disc of the edge-on galaxy, NGC 4631, which is known for its spectacular gaseous halo. The strongest emission, which we model with a Gaussian ring, occurs ... -
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey - VIII : CO data and the L -L correlation in the SINGS sample
(2012-08-21)The James Clerk Maxwell Telescope Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) comprises an Hi-selected sample of 155 galaxies spanning all morphological types with distances less than 25Mpc. We describe the scientific goals of ... -
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey -- XI. -- Environmental Variations in the Atomic and Molecular Gas Radial Profiles of Nearby Spiral Galaxies
(2017-06-01)We present an analysis of the radial profiles of a sample of 43 HI-flux selected spiral galaxies from the Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey (NGLS) with resolved James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) CO $J=3-2$ and/or Very Large ... -
The JCMT Nearby Galaxies Legacy Survey – III. Comparisons of cold dust, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, molecular gas and atomic gas in NGC 2403
(2010)We used Spitzer Space Telescope 3.6, 8.0, 70 and 160 μm data, James Clerk Maxwell Telescope HARP-B CO J= (3–2) data, National Radio Astronomy Observatory 12 m telescope CO J= (1–0) data and Very Large Array H i data to ... -
The JCMT Plane Survey : First complete data release - emission maps and compact source catalogue
(2017-08-01)We present the first data release of the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) Plane Survey (JPS), the JPS Public Release 1 (JPSPR1). JPS is an 850-um continuum survey of six fields in the northern inner Galactic Plane in ... -
The JCMT Plane Survey: early results from the ell = 30deg field
(2015-11-11)We present early results from the JCMT (James Clerk Maxwell Telescope) Plane Survey (JPS), which has surveyed the northern inner Galactic plane between longitudes ℓ = 7° and ℓ = 63° in the 850-μm continuum with SCUBA-2 ... -
The JCMT Transient Survey : Single Epoch Transients and Variability of Faint Sources
(2022-09-15)Short-duration flares at millimeter wavelengths provide unique insights into the strongest magnetic reconnection events in stellar coronae, and combine with longer-term variability to introduce complications to next-generation ... -
The JCMT Transient Survey: An Extraordinary Submillimeter Flare in the T Tauri Binary System JW 566
(2019-01-23)The binary T Tauri system JW 566 in the Orion Molecular Cloud underwent an energetic, short-lived flare observed at submillimetre wavelengths by the SCUBA-2 instrument on 26 November 2016 (UT). The emission faded by nearly ... -
The JCMT Transient Survey: Four-year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars
(2021-10-21)We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby ($<500 $pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargle Periodogram technique to search for and ... -
JEMS: A Deep Medium-band Imaging Survey in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field with JWST NIRCam and NIRISS
(2023-10-09)We present JWST Extragalactic Medium-band Survey, the first public medium-band imaging survey carried out using JWST/NIRCam and NIRISS. These observations use ∼2 and ∼4 μm medium-band filters (NIRCam F182M, F210M, F430M, ... -
Jet Feedback in Star-Forming Galaxies
(2023-02-12)In this paper, I review our understanding of how jet feedback works in star-forming galaxies. There are some interesting differences to radiative feedback from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Jets act on galaxy haloes as ... -
The jet heated x-ray filament in the Centaurus A northern middle radio lobe
(2009)We present results from a 40 ks XMM-Newton observation of the X-ray filament coincident with the southeast edge of the Centaurus A Northern Middle Radio Lobe (NML). We find that the X-ray filament consists of five spatially ... -
Jet interactions with a giant molecular cloud in the Galactic centre and ejection of hypervelocity stars
(2012-09-21)The hypervelocity OB stars in the Milky Way Galaxy were ejected from the central regions some 10-100 million years ago. We argue that these stars, as well as many more abundant bound OB stars in the innermost few parsecs, ... -
Jet Kinematics of AGNs at High Radio Frequencies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2006)We have completed a 3 yr program of polarization monitoring of 15 active galactic nuclei with the Very Long Baseline Array at 7 mm wavelength. At some epochs the images are accompanied by nearly simultaneous polarization ... -

Jet-induced star formation in gas-rich galaxies
(2012-09-01)Feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGN) has become a major component in simulations of galaxy evolution, in particular for massive galaxies. AGN jets have been shown to provide a large amount of energy and are capable ...
