The highest frequency detection of a radio relic : 16 GHz AMI observations of the 'Sausage' cluster
(2014-06-11)
We observed the cluster CIZA J2242.8+5301 with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager at 16 GHz and present the first high radio-frequency detection of diffuse, non-thermal cluster emission. This cluster hosts a variety of bright, ...
PdBI Cold dust imaging of two extremely red H-[4.5] > 4 galaxies discovered with SEDS and CANDELS
(2014-05-30)
We report Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI) 1.1 mm continuum imaging toward two extremely red H-[4.5] > 4 (AB) galaxies at z > 3, which we have previously discovered making use of Spitzer SEDS and Hubble Space Telescope ...
Evolution in the bias of faint radio sources to z ~ 2.2
(2014-05-21)
Quantifying how the baryonic matter traces the underlying dark matter distribution is key to both understanding galaxy formation and our ability to constrain the cosmological model. Using the cross-correlation function of ...
Prospecting in ultracool dwarfs : Measuring the metallicities of mid- and late-m dwarfs
(2014-05-14)
Metallicity is a fundamental parameter that contributes to the physical characteristics of a star. The low temperatures and complex molecules present in M dwarf atmospheres make it difficult to measure their metallicities ...
An X-ray survey of the 2 Jy sample-I : Is there an accretion mode dichotomy in radio-loud AGN?
(2014-05-01)
We carry out a systematic study of the X-ray emission from the active nuclei of the 0.02 < z< 0.7 2 Jy sample, using Chandra and XMM-Newton observations.We combine our results with those from mid-infrared, optical emission-line ...
MOA-2011-BLG-262Lb : A sub-earth-mass moon orbiting a gas giant primary or a high velocity planetary system in the galactic bulge
(2014-04-20)
We present the first microlensing candidate for a free-floating exoplanet-exomoon system, MOA-2011-BLG-262, with a primary lens mass of M host ∼ 4 Jupiter masses hosting a sub-Earth mass moon. The argument for an exomoon ...
Precision radial velocities of 15 M5-M9 dwarfs
(2014-04-11)
We present radial velocity measurements of a sample ofM5V-M9Vstars from our Red-Optical Planet Survey, operating at 0.652-1.025 μm. Radial velocities for 15 stars, with rms precision down to 2.5m-1 over a week-long time-scale, ...
The star formation history of mass-selected galaxies from the VIDEO survey
(2014-04-01)
We measure star formation rates (SFRs) and specific SFRs (SSFRs) of Ks-selected galaxies from the VISTA Deep Extragalactic Observations survey by stacking 1.4 GHz Very Large Array data.We split the sample, which spans 0 < ...
The impact of a young radio galaxy : Clues from the cosmic ray electron population
(2014-04-01)
In the framework of hierarchical structure formation, active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback shapes the galaxy luminosity function. Low luminosity, galaxy-scale double radio sources are ideal targets to investigate the ...
On the shape of the mass-function of dense clumps in the Hi-GAL fields II : Using Bayesian inference to study the clump mass function
(2014-04)
Context. Stars form in dense, dusty clumps of molecular clouds, but little is known about their origin, their evolution, and their detailed physical properties. In particular, the relationship between the mass distribution ...
