Candidate Microlensing Events from M31 Observations with the Loiano Telescope
Microlensing observations towards M31 are a powerful tool for the study of the dark matter population in the form of MACHOs both in the Galaxy and the M31 halos, a still unresolved issue, as well as for the analysis of the characteristics of the M31 luminous populations. In this work we present the second year results of our pixel lensing campaign carried out towards M31 using the 152 cm Cassin...
متن کاملMicrovariability survey with the Hubble Space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensors
The suitability of theHubble Space Telescope (HST) Fine Guidance Sensors (FGS) for a magnitude limited survey of microvariability among guide stars is investigated. The linearity, relative sensitivity, and dead-time constants of the three FGSs are determined, and the photon noise limitation of the FGS photometry is confirmed. The noise spectrum is found to be “white” and a procedure is describe...
متن کاملA Hubble Space Telescope Snapshot Survey of Dynamically Close Galaxy Pairs in the CNOC2 Redshift Survey
We compare the structural properties of two classes of galaxies at intermediate redshift: those in dynamically close galaxy pairs, and those which are isolated. Both samples are selected from the CNOC2 Redshift Survey, and have redshifts in the range 0.1 < z < 0.6. Hubble Space Telescope WFPC2 images were acquired as part of a snapshot survey, and were used to measure bulge fraction and asymmet...
متن کاملThe Spitzer Space Telescope First-Look Survey: Neutral Hydrogen Emission
The Spitzer Space Telescope (formerly SIRTF) extragalactic First-Look Survey covered about 5 deg centered on J2000 α = 1718, δ = 5930 in order to characterize the infrared sky with high sensitivity. We used the 100-m Green Bank Telescope to image the 21 cm Galactic H I emission over a 3 × 3 square covering this position with an effective angular resolution of 9.8 and a velocity resolution of 0....
