The post-infall evolution of a satellite galaxy

Pascale Jablonka, Yves Revaz, Matthew Luke Nichols

We describe a new method that only focuses on the local region surrounding an infalling dwarf in an effort to understand how the hot baryonic halo alters the chemodynamical evolution of dwarf galaxies. Using this method, we examine how a dwarf, similar to ...

Properties and nature of Be stars 30. Reliable physical properties of a semi-detached B9.5e+G8III binary BR CMi = HD 61273 compared to those of other well studied semi-detached emission-line binaries

Matthias Wolf, Pierre North

Reliable determination of the basic physical properties of hot emission-line binaries with Roche-lobe filling secondaries is important for developing the theory of mass exchange in binaries. It is a very hard task, however, which is complicated by the pres ...

The behaviour of dark matter associated with four bright cluster galaxies in the 10 kpc core of Abell 3827

David Richard Harvey, Mathilde Jauzac, Richard Massey, Johan Richard

Galaxy cluster Abell 3827 hosts the stellar remnants of four almost equally bright elliptical galaxies within a core of radius 10 kpc. Such corrugation of the stellar distribution is very rare, and suggests recent formation by several simultaneous mergers. ...

Planck 2013 results. XXX. Cosmic infrared background measurements and implications for star formation

Xin Chen, Julien Lesgourgues, Fabio Finelli

We present new measurements of cosmic infrared background (CIB) anisotropies using Planck. Combining HFI data with IRAS, the angular auto-and cross-frequency power spectrum is measured from 143 to 3000 GHz, and the auto-bispectrum from 217 to 545 GHz. The ...

The simultaneous low state spectral energy distribution of 1ES 2344+514 from radio to very high energies

Thomas Günther Bretz

Context. BL Lacertae objects are variable at all energy bands on time scales down to minutes. To construct and interpret their spectral energy distribution (SED), simultaneous broad-band observations are mandatory. Up to now, the number of objects studied ...

La détection de périodicités cachées

Jean-Marc Nicoletti

This thesis is a small part of the preparation of the launch of the Gaia mission, a satellite of the European Space Agency (ESA). One of the goals of the mission is to perform a classification among variable stars considering different attributes. Periodic ...

Daylight Variability and Contrast-Driven Architectural Effect

Siobhan Francois Rockcastle

Natural light is a dynamic and ephemeral tool for expressing the quality of architecturalspace. As a compliment to more traditional avenues of daylighting research that assess performance in terms of quantitative illuminance goals and glare-based discomfor ...

The NIR Ca II triplet at low metallicity Searching for extremely low-metallicity stars in classical dwarf galaxies

Pascale Jablonka, Martin Tafelmeyer

The NIR Ca II triplet absorption lines have proven to be an important tool for quantitative spectroscopy of individual red giant branch stars in the Local Group, providing a better understanding of metallicities of stars in the Milky Way and dwarf galaxies ...

Superresolution Imaging using Single-Molecule Localization

Suliana Manley

Superresolution imaging is a rapidly emerging new field of microscopy that dramatically improves the spatial resolution of light microscopy by over an order of magnitude (similar to 10-20-nm resolution), allowing biological processes to be described at the ...

Obscured Star Formation In Intermediate-Density Environments: A Spitzer Study Of The Abell 901/902 Supercluster

We explore the amount of obscured star formation as a function of environment in the Abell 901/902 (A901/902) supercluster at z = 0.165 in conjunction with a field sample drawn from the A901 and CDFS fields, imaged with the Hubble Space Telescope as part o ...
