Understanding the nature of the optically faint radio sources and their connection to the submillimeter population
(2002-05-10)
We present a sample of 43 submillimeter sources detected (at >3 sigma), drawn from our program to follow-up optically faint radio sources with SCUBA. These sources already have associated radio and in many cases optical ...
SCUBA observations of Hawaii 167
(2000-11)
We present the first submillimetre observations of the z=2.36 broad absorption line system Hawaii 167. Our observations confirm the hypothesis that Hawaii 167 contains a massive quantity of dust, the optical depth of which ...
Submillimetre observations of a sample of broad absorption line quasars
(2003-10-10)
The broad absorption line (BAL) features seen in a small fraction of quasar optical/UV spectra are attributed to bulk outflows away from the quasar core. Observational evidence suggests that dust plays a key role in these ...
The stellar halo and outer disk of M33
(2006-08-10)
We present first results from a Keck/DEIMOS spectroscopic survey of red giant branch (RGB) stars in M33. The radial velocity distributions of the stars in our fields are well described by three Gaussian components, ...
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 ...
Modeling the evolution of infrared luminous galaxies: the influence of the Luminosity-Temperature distribution
(2005-03)
The evolution of the luminous infrared galaxy population is explored using a pure luminosity evolution model which incorporates the locally observed luminosity-temperature distribution for IRAS galaxies. Pure luminosity ...
