The Black Hole Mass In M87 From Gemini/NIFS Adaptive Optics Observations
(2011-03)
We present the stellar kinematics in the central 2 '' of the luminous elliptical galaxy M87 (NGC 4486), using laser adaptive optics to feed the Gemini telescope integral-field spectrograph, Near-infrared Integral Field ...
The Herschel Stripe 82 Survey (HerS): Maps and Early Catalog
(2014-02)
We present the first set of maps and band-merged catalog from the Herschel Stripe 82 Survey (HerS). Observations at 250, 350, and 500 mu m were taken with the Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver instrument aboard the ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. III. The Low Metallicities Of High-Redshift Ly Alpha Galaxies
(2011-03)
We present the results of Keck/NIRSPEC spectroscopic observations of three Ly alpha emitting galaxies (LAEs) at z similar to 2.3 discovered with the HETDEX pilot survey. We detect H alpha, [OIII], and H beta emission from ...
Orbit-Based Dynamical Models Of The Sombrero Galaxy (NGC 4594)
(2011-09)
We present axisymmetric, orbit-based models to study the central black hole (BH), stellarmass-to-light ratio (M/L), and dark matter (DM) halo of NGC 4594 (M104, the Sombrero Galaxy). For stellar kinematics, we use published ...
The Spectrally Resolved Lyman-Alpha Emission Of Three Lyman-Alpha-Selected Field Galaxies At Z Similar To 2.4 From The HETDEX Pilot Survey
(2013-10)
We present new results on the spectrally resolved Ly alpha emission of three Ly alpha-emitting field galaxies at z similar to 2.4 with high Lya equivalent width (> 100 angstrom) and Lya luminosity (similar to 10(43) erg ...
Physical And Morphological Properties Of O II Emitting Galaxies In The HETDEX Pilot Survey
(2015-02)
The Hobby-Eberly Dark Energy Experiment pilot survey identified 284 [O II] lambda 3727 emitting galaxies in a 169 arcmin(2) field of sky in the redshift range 0 < z < 0.57. This line flux limited sample provides a bridge ...
The HETDEX Pilot Survey. IV. The Evolution Of O II Emitting Galaxies From Z Similar To 0.5 To Z Similar To 0
(2013-05)
We present an analysis of the luminosities and equivalent widths of the 284 z < 0.56 [O II]-emitting galaxies found in the 169 arcmin(2) pilot survey for the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX). By ...
The Spatially Resolved Star Formation Law From Integral Field Spectroscopy: Virus-P Observations Of NGC 5194
(2009-10)
We investigate the relation between the star formation rate (SFR) surface density (Sigma(SFR)) and the mass surface density of gas (Sigma(gas)) in NGC 5194 (a.k.a. M51a, Whirlpool Galaxy). Visible Integral field Replicable ...
The Virus-P Exploration Of Nearby Galaxies (Venga): The X-Co Gradient In NGC 628
(2013-02)
We measure the radial profile of the (CO)-C-12(1-0) to H-2 conversion factor (X-CO) in NGC 628. The H alpha emission from the VENGA integral field spectroscopy is used to map the star formation rate (SFR) surface density ...
Dynamical Measurements Of Black Hole Masses In Four Brightest Cluster Galaxies At 100 Mpc
(2012-09)
We present stellar kinematics and orbit superposition models for the central regions of four brightest cluster galaxies, based upon integral-field spectroscopy at Gemini, Keck, and McDonald Observatories. Our integral-field ...
