Every second, trillions of neutrinos travel through your body unnoticed. Neutrinos are among the most abundant particles in the universe, but they are difficult to study because they very rarely inter...
We have used the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer to search for O VI λλ1031.926, 1037.617 emission in the halos of the edge-on spiral galaxies NGC 4631 and NGC 891. In NGC 4631, we detected O VI...
Probing the Local Group Medium toward Markarian 421 with Chandra and the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer
halo intergalactic medium
2014/12/24
We report the detection of highly ionized gas at z ~ 0 seen in resonant UV and X-ray absorption lines toward the z = 0.03 blazar Mrk 421. A total of 13 X-ray and three UV lines were measured (or upper...
Using high-resolution cosmological simulations, we study hydrogen and helium gravitational cooling radiation from gas accretion by young galaxies. We focus on the He II cooling lines, which arise from...
Chandra observation of the edge-on spiral NGC 5775: probing the hot galactic disc/halo connection
individual (NGC 5775) general
2014/12/23
We study the edge-on galaxy NGC 5775, utilizing a 58.2 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation together with complementary Hubble Space Telescope (HST) ACS, Spitzer IRAC and other multi-wavelength data sets. Th...
ExoPTF Science Uniquely Enabled by Far-IR Interferometry: Probing the Formation of Planetary Systems, and Finding and Characterizing Exoplanets
Finding Characterizing Exoplanets
2014/12/22
By providing sensitive sub-arcsecond images and integral field spectroscopy in the 25 – 400 ìm wavelength range, a far-IR interferometer will revolutionize our understanding of planetary system format...
Probing chemical evolution in molecular clouds with millimeter -wave observations
Cereal chemistry The interstellar medium Millimeter wavelength Molecular emission Dynamics Temperature observation The density of hydrogen molecules
2014/12/9
We present results for a study of gas-phase and grain chemical processes in the dense interstellar medium (ISM) using millimeter-wavelength observations of the pure rotational transitions of molecules...
Probing dark energy beyond $z=2$ with CODEX
Probing dark energy CODEX cosmological redshift
2012/2/21
Precision measurements of nature's fundamental couplings and a first measurement of the cosmological redshift drift are two of the key targets for future high-resolution ultra-stable spectrographs suc...
GRB091127/SN2009nz and the VLT/X-shooter spectroscopy of its host galaxy: probing the faint end of the mass-metallicity relation
Gamma-rays bursts: individual: GRB091127 – supernovae: individual: SN2009nz – Galaxies: ISM– Galaxies: evolution
2011/10/12
We perform a detailed study of the gamma-ray burst GRB091127/SN2009nz host galaxy at z=0.490 using the VLT/X-shooter spectrograph in slit and integral-field unit (IFU). From the analysis of the optica...
Probing the Microscopic with the Macroscopic: from Properties of Star Cluster Systems to Properties of Cluster-Forming Regions
Macroscopic: Properties Cluster Systems Cluster-Forming Regions
2011/10/11
To understand how systems of star clusters have reached their presently observed properties constitutes a powerful probe into the physics of cluster formation, without needing to resort to high spatia...
Spectroscopic confirmation of z~7 LBGs: probing the earliest galaxies and the epoch of reionization
Spectroscopic confirmation earliest galaxies epoch reionization
2011/9/29
We present the final results from our ultra-deep spectroscopic campaign with FORS2 at the ESO/VLT for the confirmation of z~7 "z--band dropout" candidates selected from our VLT/Hawk-I imaging survey o...
Probing cluster formation under extreme conditions: massive star clusters in blue compact galaxies
galaxies: starburst - galaxies: star clusters: general - galaxies: irregular- galaxies:star formation
2011/9/27
The numerous and massive young star clusters in blue compact galaxies (BCGs) are used to investigate the properties of their hosts. We test whether BCGs follow claimed relations between cluster popula...
We report the results of a recent study of young star clusters (YSCs) in luminous blue compact galaxies (BCGs). The age distributions of the YSCs suggest that the starburst episode in Haro 11, ESO 185...

Probing Intermediate Mass Black Holes Optical Emission Lines
2011/1/13
We calculate the emission line spectrum produced by the debris released when a white dwarf (WD) is tidally disrupted by an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH; $M\sim 10^{2}-10^{5}\msun$) and we explor...
