    • Disc frequencies for brown dwarfs in the Upper Scorpius OB association : implications for brown dwarf formation theories 

      Riaz, B.; Lodieu, N.; Goodwin, S.; Stamatellos, D.; Thompson, M. (2012-03-01)
      We have investigated the brown dwarf (BD) and stellar disc fractions in the Upper Scorpius OB Association (USco) and compared them with several other young regions. We have compiled the most complete sample of of all ...

    • The G305 star-forming complex : the central star clusters Danks 1 and Danks 2 

      Davies, B.; Clark, J.S.; Trombley, C.; Figer, D. F.; Najarro, F.; Crowther, P.A.; Kudritzki, R.P.; Thompson, M.; Urquhart, J.S.; Hindson, Luke (2012)
      The G305 H ii complex (G305.4+0.1) is one of the most massive star-forming structures yet identified within the Galaxy. It is host to many massive stars at all stages of formation and evolution, from embedded molecular ...

    • The impact of SKA on Galactic Radioastronomy: continuum observations 

      Umana, G.; Trigilio, C.; Cerrigone, L.; Cesaroni, R.; Zijlstra, A.~A.; Hoare, M.; Weis, K.; Beasley, A.; Bomans, D.; Hallinan, G.; Molinari, S.; Taylor, R.; Testi, L.; Thompson, M. (2015-04-10)
      The SKA will be a state of the art radiotelescope optimized for both large area surveys as well as for deep pointed observations. In this paper we analyze the impact that the SKA will have on Galactic studies, starting ...

    • The ionised, radical and molecular Milky Way: spectroscopic surveys with the SKA 

      Thompson, M.; Beuther, H.; Dickinson, C.; MOttram, J.; Klaassen, P.; Ginsburg, A.; Longmore, S.; Remijan, A.; Menten, K.~M. (Inspire, 2014-12-01)
      The bandwith, sensitivity and sheer survey speed of the SKA offers unique potential for deep spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way. Within the frequency bands available to the SKA lie many transitions that trace the ...

    • Measurements of CO Redshifts with Z-Spec for Lensed Submillimeter Galaxies Discovered in the H-ATLAS Survey 

      Lupu, R. E.; Scott, K.S.; Aguirre, J.E.; Aretxaga, I.; Auld, R.; Barton, E.; Beelen, A.; Bertoldi, F.; Bock, J.J.; Bonfield, D.; Bradford, C.M.; Buttiglione, S.; Cava, A.; Clements, D. L.; Cooke, J.; Cooray, A.; Dannerbauer, H.; Dariush, A.; de Zotti, G.; Dunne, L.; Dye, S.; Eales, S.; Frayer, D.; Fritz, J.; Glenn, J.; Hughes, D.H.; Ibar, E.; Ivison, Rob J.; Jarvis, M.J.; Kamenetzky, J.; Kim, S.; Lagache, G.; Leeuw, L.; Maddox, S.; Maloney, P. R.; Matsuhara, H.; Murphy, E. J.; Naylor, B.J.; Negrello, M.; Nguyen, H.; Omont, A.; Pascale, E.; Pohlen, M.; Rigby, E.; Rodighiero, G.; Serjeant, S.; Smith, Daniel; Temi, P.; Thompson, M.; Valtchanov, I.; Verma, A.; Vieira, J. D.; Zmuidzinas, J. (2012-10-01)
      We present new observations from Z-Spec, a broadband 185-305 GHz spectrometer, of five submillimeter bright lensed sources selected from the Herschel-Astrophysical Terahertz Large Area Survey science demonstration phase ...

    • On the shape of the mass-function of dense clumps in the Hi-GAL fields . I : Spectral energy distribution determination and global properties of the mass-functions 

      Olmi, L.; Anglés-Alcázar, D.; Elia, D.; Molinari, S.; Montier, L.; Pestalozzi, M.; Pezzuto, S.; Polychroni, D.; Ristorcelli, I.; Rodon, J.; Schisano, E.; Smith, M.D.; Testi, L.; Thompson, M. (2013-03-01)
      Context. Stars form in dense, dusty clumps of molecular clouds, but little is known about their origin and evolution. In particular, the relationship between the mass distribution of these clumps (also known as the clump ...

    • SB 205384 slows the decay of GABA-activated chloride currents in granule cells cultured from rat cerebellum 

      Meadows, H.J.; Harries, M.; Thompson, M.; Benham, C.D. (1997)
      4-Amino-7-hydroxy-2-methyl-5,6,7,8,-tetrahydrobenzo[b]thieno[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid, but-2-ynyl ester (SB-205384) and other γ-aminobutyric acidA (GABAA) receptor modulators were tested for their effects on ...

    • The SCUBA-2 Ambitious Sky Survey: a catalogue of beam-sized sources in the Galactic longitude range 120deg-140deg 

      Nettke, W.; Scott, D.; Gibb, A. G.; Thompson, M.; Chrysostomou, A.; Evans, A.; Hill, T.; Jenness, T.; Joncas, G.; Moore, T.; Serjeant, S.; Urquhart, J.S.; Vaccari, M.; Weferling, B.; White, G.; Zhu, M. (2017-06-01)
      The SCUBA-2 Ambitious Sky Survey (SASSy) is composed of shallow 850-µm imaging using the Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array 2 (SCUBA-2) on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. Here we describe the extraction of a ...
