We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 twice during the flight of Astro-2 using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope aboard the space shuttle Endeavour in March 1995. Simultaneous X-ray observations...

EG And: FUSE and HST/STIS Monitoring of an Eclipsing Symbiotic Binary (2007)

Crowley, Cian, Espey, B. R., McCandliss, S. R.

We present highlights and an overview of 20 FUSE and HST/STIS observations of the bright symbiotic binary EG And. The main motivation behind this work is to obtain spatially-resolved information on...

A "Combination Nova" Outburst in Z Andromedae: Nuclear Shell Burning Triggered by a Disk Instability (2005)

Sokoloski, J. L., Kenyon, S. J., Espey, B. R., Keyes, Charles D., McCandliss, S. R., Kong, A. K. H., ...

We describe observational evidence for a new kind of interacting-binary-star outburst that involves both an accretion instability and an increase in thermonuclear shell burning on the surface of an...

A New Kind of Nova (2004)

Sokoloski, J. L., Kenyon, S. J., Kong, A. K. H., Espey, B. R., McCandliss, S. R., Keyes, C. D., ...

We performed extensive, multi-wavelength observations of the prototypical symbiotic star Z Andromedae between 2000 and 2003, during a large eruption. The rise to optical maximum occurred in three...

FUSE Observations of the Symbiotic Star AG Draconis (2004)

Young, P. R., Dupree, A. K., Espey, B. R., Kenyon, S. J., Ake, T. B.

Spectra of the bright symbiotic star AG Draconis (BD+67D922) in the wavelength range 905-1187 A obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) are presented. The spectra show a...

Outbursts of Classical Symbiotics: Multi-Wavelength Observations of the 2000-2001 Outburst of Z Andromedae (2001)

Sokoloski, J. L., Kenyon, S. J., Kong, A. K. H., Charles, P. A., Kaiser, C. R., Seymour, N., ...

We describe the first results from a program of multi-wavelength monitoring of symbiotic binary stars in outburst. The prototypical symbiotic star Z Andromedae was observed extensively at radio,...

Contemporaneous Observations of Direct and Raman Scattered O VI in Symbiotic Stars (2000)

Birriel, J. J., Espey, B. R., Schulte-Ladbeck, R. E.

Symbiotic stars are binary systems consisting of a hot star, typically a white dwarf, and a cool giant companion. The wind from the cool star is ionized by the radiation from the hot star, resulting...

The Hubble Deep Field South - STIS Imaging (1999)

Gardner, J. P., Baum, S. A., Brown, T. M., Carollo, C. M., Christensen, J., Dashevsky, I., ...

We present the imaging observations made with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph of the Hubble Deep Field - South. The field was imaged in 4 bandpasses: a clear CCD bandpass for 156 ksec, a...

The Lyman-alpha forest of the QSO in the Hubble Deep Field South (1999)

Savaglio, S., Ferguson, H. C., Brown, T. M., Espey, B. R., Sahu, K. C., Baum, S. A., ...

The quasar in the Hubble Deep Field South (HDFS), J2233-606 (z=2.23) has been exhaustively observed by ground based telescopes and by the STIS spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope at low,...

Far-UV Observations of NGC 4151 during the ORFEUS-SPAS II Mission (1997)

Espey, B. R., Kriss, G. A., Krolik, J. H., Zheng, W., Tsvetanov, Z., Davidsen, A. F.

We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 on eleven occasions at 1-2 day intervals using the Berkeley spectrometer during the ORFEUS-SPAS II mission in 1996 November. The mean spectrum covers...

STEPS TOWARD DETERMINATION OF THE SIZE AND STRUCTURE OF THE BROAD-LINE REGION IN ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI. XI. INTENSIVE MONITORING OF THE ULTRAVIOLET SPECTRUM OF NGC 7469 (1997)

Wanders, I., Peterson, B.M., Alloin, D., Ayres, T.R., Clavel, J., Crenshaw, D.M., ...

From 1996 June 10 to July 29, the International Ultraviolet Explorer monitored the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469 continuously in an attempt to measure time delays between the continuum and emission-line...

Far-Ultraviolet Observations of NGC 3516 using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope (1996)

Kriss, G. A., Espey, B. R., Krolik, J. H., Tsvetanov, Z., Zheng, W., Davidsen, A. F.

We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 twice during the flight of Astro-2 using the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope in March 1995. Simultaneous X-ray observations were performed with ASCA. Our...

ASCA Observations of the Composite Warm Absorber in NGC 3516 (1996)

Kriss, G. A., Krolik, J. H., Otani, C., Espey, B. R., Turner, T. J., Kii, T., ...

We obtained X-ray spectra of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC~3516 in March 1995 using ASCA. Simultaneous far-UV observations were obtained with HUT on the Astro-2 shuttle mission. The ASCA spectrum shows a...
