Draco, a flawless dwarf galaxy
The Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph), with its apparent immense mass to light ratio and compact size, holds many clues to the nature of the enigmatic dark matter. Here we present deep photometric studies of this dwarf ... -
Dynamical Structure of the Molecular Interstellar Medium in an Extremely Bright, Multiply Lensed z 3 Submillimeter Galaxy Discovered with Herschel
We report the detection of CO 5-4, 3-2, and 1-0 emission in the strongly lensed, Herschel/SPIRE-selected submillimeter galaxy (SMG) HLSW-01 at z=2.9574+/-0.0001, using the Plateau de Bure Interferometer, the Combined Array ... -
Dynamics in the satellite system of Triangulum: Is AndXXII a dwarf satellite of M33?
We present results from a spectroscopic survey of the dwarf spheroidal And XXII and the two extended clusters EC1 and EC2. These three objects are candidate satellites of the Triangulum galaxy, M33, which itself is likely ... -
The effect of lensing on the identification of bright SCUBA galaxies
Spectroscopic surveys of luminous submillimetre-selected sources have uncovered optically-bright galaxies at z<1 close to the positions of several submillimetre (submm) sources. Naive statistical analyses suggest that ... -
Energetic galaxy-wide outflows in high-redshift ultra-luminous infrared galaxies hosting AGN activity
We present integral field spectroscopy observations, covering the [O III]4959,5007 emission-line doublet of eight high-redshift (z=1.4-3.4) ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) that host Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) ... -
Evidence for a Major Merger Origin of High Redshift Sub-millimeter Galaxies
Sub-mm detected galaxies located at redshifts $z > 1$ host a major fraction of the bolometric luminosity at high redshifts due to thermal emission from heated dust grains, yet the nature of these objects remains a mystery. ... -
Evidence for an accretion origin for the outer halo globular cluster system of M31
We use a sample of newly-discovered globular clusters from the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS) in combination with previously-catalogued objects to map the spatial distribution of globular clusters in the M31 ... -
Evidence for extended, obscured starbursts in submm galaxies
We compare high-resolution optical and radio imaging of 12 luminous submm galaxies at z=2.2+/-0.2 observed with HST and the MERLIN and VLA at comparable spatial resolution, 0.3" (2kpc). The radio emission traces the likely ... -
Exploring the Properties of the M31 Halo Globular Cluster System
Following on from our discovery of a significant population of M31 outer halo globular clusters (GCs), and updates to the Revised Bologna Catalogue of M31 GCs, we investigate the GC system of M31 out to an unprecedented ... -
An extended Herschel drop-out source in the center of AS1063, a 'normal' dusty galaxy at z=6.1 or SZ substructures?
In the course of our 870um APEX/LABOCA follow up of the Herschel Lensing Survey we have detected a source in AS1063 (RXC J2248.7-4431), that has no counterparts in any of the Herschel PACS/SPIRE bands, it is a Herschel ... -
Extracting Source Parameters from Gaussian Fits to Two-Particle Correlations
Using a quadratic saddle-point approximation, we show how information about a particle-emitting source can be extracted from gaussian fits to two-particle correlation data. Although the formalism is completely general, ... -
Extragalactic millimeter-wave point source catalog, number counts and statistics from 771 square degrees of the SPT-SZ Survey
We present a point source catalog from 771 square degrees of the South Pole Telescope Sunyaev Zel'dovich (SPT-SZ) survey at 95, 150, and 220 GHz. We detect 1545 sources above 4.5 sigma significance in at least one band. ... -
Extragalactic Source Counts at 24 Microns in the Spitzer First Look Survey
We present the Spitzer MIPS 24 micron source counts in the Extragalactic First Look Survey main, verification and ELAIS-N1 fields. Spitzer's increased sensitivity and efficiency in large areal coverage over previous infrared ... -
The Far- and Mid-Infrared/Radio Correlations in the Spitzer Extragalactic First Look Survey
Using the SPITZER SPACE TELESCOPE and the VLA, we present the first DIRECT evidence that the well-known far-infrared/radio correlation is valid to cosmologically significant redshift. We also confirm, with improved statistics ... -
Far-infrared characterization of an ultra-luminous starburst associated with a massively-accreting black hole at z=1.15
As part of the "All Wavelength Extended Groth Strip International Survey" (AEGIS), we describe the panchromatic characterization of an X-ray luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN) in a merging galaxy at z=1.15. This object ... -
First detections of FIRBACK sources with SCUBA
The FIRBACK (Far InfraRed BACKground) survey represents the deepest extensive 170 micron images obtained by the ISO satellite. The sources detected comprise about 10% of the Cosmic IR Background (CIB) seen by COBE, and, ... -
First results from the UBC etch-alignment mosaic CCD
First imaging results are obtained with a new CCD mosaic prototype (3K x 3k, 15 \mu m pixels). The CCDs are aligned using an etched socket alignment technique. Three different measurements of the alignment are made using ... -
A Fully-Identified Sample of AEGIS20 Microjansky Radio Sources
Infrared 3.6 to 8 micron images of the Extended Groth Strip yield plausible counterpart identifications for all but one of 510 radio sources in the AEGIS20 S(1.4 GHz) > 50 micro-Jy sample. This is the first such deep sample ... -
Further multiwavelength observations of the SSA22 Ly_alpha emitting `blob'
We present new follow-up observations of the sub-mm luminous Ly_alpha-emitting object in the SSA22 z=3.09 galaxy overdensity, referred to as `Blob 1' by Steidel et al.(2000). In particular we discuss high resolution Hubble ...
