Period–Luminosity–Metallicity–Color Relations of Late-type Contact Binaries in the Big Data Era

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Binary stars ubiquitous throughout the Universe are important. Contact binaries (CBs) possessing period–luminosity (PL) relations could be adopted as distance tracers. The PL relations of CBs are influenced by metallicity abundance and color index, which

Infrared photometry of planetary nebulae.

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1973
Photometric observations from 1.6 to 3.5 mu of 28 planetary nebulae are presented. Most of these emit 3.5- mu radiation in excess of that expected from thermal emission by ionized gas. When combined with the measurements of Willner, Becklin, and Visvanathan, the data show that the nebulae with relatively high densities are the more likely to emit ...

Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer Observations of Young Stellar Objects in the Western Circinus Molecular Cloud [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer has uncovered a population of young stellar objects in the Western Circinus molecular cloud. Images show the YSOs to be clustered into two main groups that are coincident with dark filamentary structure in the ...

Online circular contrast perimetry: Tablet validation study against desktop test and standard automated perimetry

open access: yesOptometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To assess correlation, agreement and diagnostic accuracy of a new tablet‐based 24‐degree, 52‐point online circular contrast perimetry application (OCCP), compared to computer‐based OCCP and standard automated perimetry (SAP). Methods Seventy‐five participants (26 controls, 49 glaucomatous) were tested via SAP using Humphrey field ...

On the Accuracy of Infrared Photometry [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1985
Photometric errors due to scintillation are considered in detail. Given noise characteristics, the standard deviations, as deduced from observations, are computed for the quantities measured at successive steps of the photometric procedure. This allows us to understand better the errors computed on-line in observatories, and to understand better the ...

Luminous Red Galaxies: Selection and classification by combining optical and infrared photometry

open access: yes, 2015
We describe a new method of combining optical and infrared photometry to select Luminous Red Galaxies (LRGs) at redshifts $z > 0.6$. We explore this technique using a combination of optical photometry from CFHTLS and HST, infrared photometry from the ...

SGAS 143845.1+145407: A Big, Cool Starburst at Redshift 0.816 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present the discovery and a detailed multi-wavelength study of a strongly-lensed luminous infrared galaxy at z=0.816. Unlike most known lensed galaxies discovered at optical or near-infrared wavelengths this lensed source is red, r-Ks = 3.9 [AB ...

Characterization of the Outer Uranian Rings in the Visual and Near‐IR Using Keck, JWST, and HST Observations

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract We present observations of the Uranian outer ring system at near‐infrared and visible wavelengths. Observations with the Keck Telescope were taken in July‐August 2007 at 2.12 and 1.63 μm, when the ring plane was almost edge‐on (ring opening angle B=0.62 $B=0.62$–0.24° ${}^{\circ}$). These data showed, for the first time, the μ ring at infrared
