How Accurately Can Obscured Galaxy Luminosities Be Measured Using Spectral Energy Distribution Fitting of Near- through Far-infrared Observations?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Infrared-luminous galaxies are important sites of stellar and black hole mass assembly at most redshifts. Their luminosities are often estimated by fitting spectral energy distribution (SED) models to near- to far-infrared data, but the dependence of ...

Heavy Elements and Electromagnetic Transients from Neutron Star Mergers

open access: yesAnnalen der Physik, Volume 536, Issue 2, February 2024.
Astro‐(physics) has made major leaps forward through the combined information provided by both gravitational waves and electromagnetic emission from the first detected neutron star merger event. This review provides an up‐to‐date overview of today's understanding of neutron star mergers and their electromagnetic emission and it discusses possible ...

Outflows in Infrared-Luminous Starbursts at z < 0.5. II. Analysis and Discussion

open access: yes, 2005
We have performed an absorption-line survey of outflowing gas in 78 starburst-dominated, infrared-luminous galaxies. This is the largest study of superwinds at z < 3. Superwinds are found in almost all infrared-luminous galaxies, and changes in detection

The Magellan M2FS Spectroscopic Survey of High-redshift Galaxies: The Brightest Lyman-break Galaxies at z ∼ 6

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a study of a sample of 45 spectroscopically confirmed, UV luminous galaxies at z ∼ 6. They were selected as bright Lyman-break galaxies (LBGs) using deep multiband optical images in more than 2 deg ^2 of the sky, and subsequently identified ...

HST astrometry of the closest brown dwarfs‐II. Improved parameters and constraints on a third body

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 345, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Located at less than two pc away, Luhman 16 AB (WISE J104915.57‐531906.1) is the closest pair of brown dwarfs and the third closest “stellar” system to Earth. An exoplanet candidate in the Luhman 16 binary system was reported in 2017 based on a weak astrometric signature in the analysis of 12 HST epochs.

Searching for Dark Galaxies with H I Detection from the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a catalog of 142 dark galaxy candidates in a region covered by the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) survey. We start with 344 ALFALFA H i sources without optical counterparts and remove those that do not seem to have a dark galaxy origin. To

Building on the Archives: Connecting the CN/CO Intensity Ratio with Global Galaxy Properties in Nearby U/LIRGs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We use the CN/CO intensity ratio to obtain the dense gas fraction, f _dense , for a sample of 16 ultraluminous and luminous infrared (IR) galaxies and compare f _dense with a suite of global galaxy properties.

MAMMOTH-Subaru. II. Diverse Populations of Circumgalactic Lyα Nebulae at Cosmic Noon

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Circumgalactic Ly α nebulae are gaseous halos around galaxies exhibiting luminous extended Ly α emission. This work investigates Ly α nebulae from deep imaging of ∼12 deg ^2 sky, targeted by the MAMMOTH-Subaru survey.

Pahs, Ionized Gas, and Molecular Hydrogen in Brightest Cluster Galaxies of Cool Core Clusters of Galaxies

open access: yes, 2011
We present measurements of 5-25 {\mu}m emission features of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) with strong optical emission lines in a sample of 9 cool-core clusters of galaxies observed with the Infrared Spectrograph on board the Spitzer Space Telescope.

Spectroscopic Constraints on the Mid-infrared Attenuation Curve. I. Attenuation Model Using Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We introduce a novel model to spectroscopically constrain the mid-infrared (MIR) extinction/attenuation curve from 3–17 μ m, using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission drawn from an AKARI–Spitzer extragalactic cross-archival data set. Currently
