    • Automated Reduction and Calibration of SCUBA Archive Data Using ORAC-DR 

      Jenness, T.; Stevens, J. A.; Archibald, E.N.; Economou, F.; Jessop, N.; Robson, E.I.; Tilanus, R.P.J.; Holland, W.S. (Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2001)
      The Submillimetre Common User Bolometer Array (SCUBA) instrument has been operating on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) since 1997. The data archive is now sufficiently large that it can be used for investigating ...

    • Dust, Gas, and the Evolutionary Status of the Radio Galaxy 8C 1435+635 at z = 4.25 

      Ivison, R.J.; Dunlop, J.S.; Hughes, D.H.; Archibald, E.N.; Stevens, J. A.; Holland, W.S.; Robson, E.I.; Eales, S.; Rawlings, S.; Dey, A.; Gear, W.K. (1998)
      We present the results of new rest-frame far-IR observations of the z\4.25 radio galaxy 8C 1435]635, which not only conÐrm that it contains an enormous quantity of dust (as Ðrst inferred from its millimeter-wave detection ...

    • A Jetdriven, Extreme High-Velocity Outflow Powered by a Cold, Low-Luminosity Protostar near NGC 2023 

      Sandell, G.; Avery, L.W.; Baas, F.; Coulson, I.M.; Dent, W.R.; Friberg, P.; Gear, W.P.K.; Greaves, J.S.; Holland, W.S.; Jenness, T.; Jewell, P.; Lightfoot, J.F.; Matthews, H.; Moriarty-Schieven, G.; Prestage, R.; Robson, E.I.; Stevens, J. A.; Tilanus, R.P.J.; Watt, G.D. (1999)

    • Millimetre and submillimetre continuum observations of the core and hotspots of Cygnus A 

      Robson, E.I.; Leeuw, L.; Stevens, J. A.; Holland, W.S. (1998)
      We present millimetre photometry and submillimetre imaging of the central core and two hotspots in the radio lobes of the galaxy Cygnus A. For both hotspots and the central core, the synchrotron spectrum continues smoothly ...

    • On the atmospheric limitations of ground-based submillimetre astronomy using array receivers 

      Archibald, E.N.; Jenness, T.; Holland, W.S.; Coulson, I.M.; Jessop, N.; Stevens, J. A.; Robson, E.I.; Tilanus, R.P.J.; Lightfoot, J.F. (2002-10)
      The calibration of ground-based submillimetre observations has always been a difficult process. We discuss how to overcome the limitations imposed by the submillimetre atmosphere. Novel ways to improve line-of-sight opacity ...

    • SCUBA-2: the 10 000 pixel bolometer camera on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope 

      Holland, W.S.; Bintley, D.; Chapin, E.L.; Chrysostomou, A.; Davis, G.R.; Dempsey, J. T.; Duncan, W.D.; Fich, M.; Friberg, P.; Halpern, M.; Irwin, K.D.; Jenness, T.; Kelly, B.D.; MacIntosh, M.J.; Robson, E.I.; Scott, Douglas; Ade, P.A.R.; Atad-Ettedgui, E.; Berry, D.S.; Craig, S.C.; Gao, X.; Gibb, Andy G.; Hilton, G.C.; Hollister, M.I.; Kycia, J.B.; Lunney, David; McGregor, H.; Montgomery, David; Parkes, W.; Tilanus, R.P.J.; Ullum, J.N.; Walther, C.A.; Walton, A.J.; Woodcraft, A.L.; Amiri, M.; Atkinson, D.; Burger, B.; Chuter, T.; Coulson, I.M.; Doriese, W.B.; Dunare, C.; Economou, F.; Niemack, M.D.; Parsons, H.A.L.; Reintsema, C.D.; Sibthorpe, B.; Smail, I.; Sudiwala, R.; Thomas, H.S. (2013-04)
      Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2 (SCUBA-2) is an innovative 10 000 pixel bolometer camera operating at submillimetre wavelengths on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT). The camera has the capability to carry ...

    • SCUBA: a common-user submillimetre camera operating on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope 

      Holland, W.S.; Robson, E.I.; Gear, W.K.; Cunningham, C.; Lightfoot, J.F.; Jenness, T.; Ivison, R.J.; Stevens, J. A.; Ade, P.A.R.; Griffin, M.J.; Duncan, W.D.; Murphy, J.A.; Naylor, D.A. (1999)
      SCUBA, the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array, built by the Royal Observatory Edinburgh for the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, is the most versatile and powerful of a new generation of submillimetre cameras. It ...

    • A submillimetre imaging polarimeter at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope 

      Greaves, J.S.; Holland, W.S.; Jenness, T.; Chrysostomou, A.; Berry, D.S.; Tamura, M.; Robson, E.I.; Ade, P.A.R.; Nartallo, R.; Stevens, J. A.; Morino, J.; Moriarty-Schieven, G.; Gannaway, F.; Haynes, C.V. (2003-04)
      A polarimeter has been built for use with the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array (SCUBA), on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) in Hawaii. SCUBA is the first of a new generation of highly sensitive submillimetre ...

    • Submillimetre polarization and constraints on dust grain alignment 

      Greaves, J.S.; Holland, W.S.; Minchin, N.R.; Murray, A.G.; Stevens, J. A. (1999)
      Polarization at 800 and 1100um has been observed in the star-forming regions Mon R2, DR21 and W3-IRS4. These data have been used to test proposed mechanisms for producing polarized dust emission in the submillimetre. It ...
