K-band Arcetri Obscured Supernova Search . What is the KAOSS Project? W hat is the KAOSS Project?

... Even future mission archives tend to concentrate more on what can be extracted out of a proposal or a Guaranteed Time Observation log than the actual extracted science out of the data itself. ... A year later the data is then publicly available. An archive researcher has then to go through a mass of data to find what may be useful without any indication as to what the actual observer's results were while using the data except the proposal, which in most cases is very general. ...

... Clustering of AGN and QSOs at z=1 . Using galaxies from the DEEP2 Redshift Survey and AGN from the AEGIS/Chandra survey and QSOs from SDSS, I present the cross-correlation function of AGN/QSOs and 'normal' galaxies at z=1. Using the known clustering of DEEP2 galaxies, this leads to an estimate of the bias and typical host dark matter halo mass of AGN/QSOs as a function of X-ray luminosity, which constrains AGN formation models. oral . ...

After a couple of visits by Steve Larson and Ed Beshore in late 2003 and early March 2004 to deal with various hardware issues and to install the new survey code, regular surveying commenced in mid-March 2004. ... However, the initial results are most satisfying and new objects have been found from the very first night. ... UA Media Release . ... Fellow Uppsala observer Rob McNaught was observing NEOs with the 1.0-m at Siding Spring as part of our regular program of follow-up observations. ...

Experiment COLD . ... JSEC Astronomy . ... The entire project was called "Experiment Cold". ... The best radiometer (in terms of fluctuation sensitivity) known to us, based on a parametric amplifier with a closed-cycle helium cooling system, was used in the experiment; measures were taken to "cool" the radio telescope itself; and a method of controlling the numerous sources of interference was carefully thought out. ...

... These observations are a precursor to a large scale, extragalactic, Zone of Avoidance (ZOA) survey with the Arecibo L-band Feed Array (ALFA). ... Full survey observations, which will begin in 2007, will reveal local large scale structure in a part of the extragalactic sky that is relatively unexplored due to the obscuration of optical light by dust in our Galaxy. ...

... We present the results of an ongoing survey of cool, late­type supergiants -- the descendants of massive O and B­type stars -- that has systematically detected magnetic fields in these stars using spectropolarimetric observations obtained with the ESPaDOnS at the Canada­France­Hawaii Telescope. Our observations reveal detectable, often complex Stokes V Zeeman signatures in the Least­Squares Deconvolution mean line profiles in a significant fraction of the observed sample of 30 stars. ...
