The Spitzer Space Telescope Extra-Galactic First Look Survey: 24 micron data reduction, catalog, and source identification
(2006-06)
We present the reduction of the 24 micron data obtained during the first cosmological survey performed by the Spitzer Space Telescope (First Look Survey, FLS). The survey consists of a shallow observation of 2.5x2 sq deg ...
A submm survey of Lyman-alpha haloes in the SA22 protocluster at z=3.1
(2005-09-30)
We present the results from a submm survey of a sample of 23 giant Lya emitting nebulae in the overdensity at z=3.09 in the SA22 field. These objects, which have become known as Lya Blobs (LABs) have a diverse range of ...
The bi-variate luminosity-color distribution of IRAS galaxies, and implications for the high redshift Universe
(2003-05)
We present a characterization of the local luminosity-color, bi-variate distribution of IRAS galaxies from the 1.2Jy sample, selected at 60 micron. The S60/S100 infrared color is used as the best single parameter description ...
Optically faint counterparts to the ISO-FIRBACK 170 micron population: the discovery of cold, luminous galaxies at high redshift
(2002-07)
We present Keck spectroscopy and UKIRT near-IR imaging observations of two 170micron-selected sources from the ISO-FIRBACK survey which have faint counterparts in the optical, and r-K~5. Both sources were expected to lie ...
Radio galaxy selected clusters at high redshift and associated ERO overdensities
(2000-10)
Galaxy clusters at high redshift present a superb opportunity to study galaxy evolution, with large galaxy samples at fixed distances. Several lines of evidence point towards large formation redshifts and passive evolution ...
A passive nonlinear digital filter design which facilitates physics-based sound synthesis of highly nonlinear musical instruments
(Acoust. Soc. America through AIP, 1997-02)
Recent work has led to highly efficient physics-based computational models of wave propagation in strings, acoustic tubes, membranes, plates, and rooms using the digital waveguide filter, the 2-D digital waveguide mesh, ...
A Keck/DEIMOS Kinematic Study of Andromeda IX: dark matter on the smallest galactic scales
(2005-10-20)
We present the results of a kinematic survey of the dwarf spheroidal satellite of M31, And-IX, which appears to be the lowest surface brightness and also the faintest galaxy (M_V = -8.3) found to date. Using Keck/DEIMOS ...
Ultra Steep Spectrum radio sources in the Lockman Hole: SERVS identifications and redshift distribution at the faintest radio fluxes
(2011-08-19)
Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) radio sources have been successfully used to select powerful radio sources at high redshifts (z>~2). Typically restricted to large-sky surveys and relatively bright radio flux densities, it has ...
Closure between measured and modeled cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) using size-resolved aerosol compositions in downtown Toronto
(2006-06)
Measurements of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) were made in downtown Toronto during
August and September, 2003. CCN measurements were performed at 0.58% supersaturation
using a thermal-gradient diffusion chamber, whereas ...
Most Submillimetre Galaxies are Major Mergers
(2010-09-13)
We analyse subarcsecond resolution interferometric CO line data for twelve sub-millimetre-luminous (S850um > 5mJy) galaxies with redshifts between 1 and 3, presenting new data for four of them. Morphologically and kinematically ...
