Adaptive Real Time Imaging Synthesis Telescopes [PDF]
The digital revolution is transforming astronomy from a data-starved to a data-submerged science. Instruments such as the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST), and the Square Kilometer Array (SKA) will measure

Analysis of Zeeman effect data in radio astronomy
The analysis of Zeeman effect data in radio astronomy is discussed; in particular, previous techniques are extended to include the case of low signal-to-noise ratios. Three statistical techniques for estimating the line-of-sight magnetic field are considered: maximum likelihood, least-squares, and Wiener filters.

A new seismic analysis of Alpha Centauri [PDF]
Models of alpha Cen A & B have been computed using the masses determined by Pourbaix et al. (2002) and the data derived from the spectroscopic analysis of Neuforge and Magain (1997).

Using Contour Trees in the Analysis and Visualization of Radio Astronomy Data Cubes [PDF]
The current generation of radio and millimeter telescopes, particularly the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), offers enormous advances in observing capabilities. While these advances represent an unprecedented opportunity to facilitate scientific understanding, the increased complexity in the spatial and spectral structure of these ALMA data cubes

A search for periodicity in the light curves of selected blazars
We present an analysis of multifrequency light curves of the sources 2223-052 (3C 446), 2230+114 (CTA 102), and 2251+158 (3C 454.3), which had shown evidence of quasi-periodic activity.

Research Data in Astronomy: Assessing its Impact and Visibility through a Bibliometric Analysis
In the context of the Open Access and Open Science initiatives, Research Data Management becomes relevant and of current interest to researchers, libraries and institutions that contribute to the development of scientific knowledge. Particularly in Astronomy, it is a challenge to convert, standardize, process and arrange large volumes of information ...

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Sonification for Time-series Data Exploration
Astronomy is a discipline primarily reliant on visual data. However, alternative data representation techniques are being explored, in particular “sonification,” namely, the representation of data into sound.
