Digital Data Preservation for Scholarly Publications in Astronomy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Curation, 2007
Astronomy is similar to other scientific disciplines in that scholarly publication relies on the presentation and interpretation of data. But although astronomy now has archives for its primary research telescopes and associated surveys, the highly ...

Radial Velocities as an Exoplanet Discovery Method

open access: yes, 2017
The precise radial velocity technique is a cornerstone of exoplanetary astronomy. Astronomers measure Doppler shifts in the star's spectral features, which track the line-of/sight gravitational accelerations of a star caused by the planets orbiting it ...

Observing the CMB at High-l using the VSA and AMI

open access: yes, 2003
We discuss two experiments - the Very Small Array (VSA) and the Arcminute MicroKelvin Imager (AMI) - and their prospects for observing the CMB at high angular multipoles.

Fourier decomposition and frequency analysis of the pulsating stars with P < 1day in the OGLE database. II. Multiperiodic RR Lyrae variables in the Galactic Bulge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present the results of a systematic search for multiperiodic pulsators among the Galactic Bulge RR Lyrae stars of the OGLE-1 sample. We identify one "canonical" double-mode variable (RRd star) pulsating in two radial modes.

Galactic Winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Galactic winds are the primary mechanism by which energy and metals are recycled in galaxies and are deposited into the intergalactic medium. New observations are revealing the ubiquity of this process, particularly at high redshift.

Unique Performance Considerations for Printable Organic Semiconductor and Perovskite Radiation Detectors: Toward Consensus on Best Practice Evaluation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A lack of standard approaches for testing and reporting the performance of metal halide perovskites and organic semiconductor radiation detectors has resulted in inconsistent interpretation of performance parameters, impeding progress in the field. This Perspective recommends key metrics and experimental details, which are suggested for reporting in ...

Search for primary photons at tens of PeV with the Pierre Auger Observatory

open access: yesInternational Conference on Rebooting Computing, 2023
The observation of primary photons with energies around 10 16 eV would be particularly interesting after the discovery of Galactic gamma-ray sources with spectra extending into the PeV range.
