Delensing Gravitational Wave Standard Sirens with Shear and Flexion Maps (2009)
Shapiro, Charles, Bacon, David, Hendry, Martin, Hoyle, Ben
Supermassive black hole binary systems (SMBHB) are standard sirens -- the gravitational wave analogue of standard candles -- and if discovered by gravitational wave detectors, they could be used as...
Robaina, Aday R., Bell, Eric F., Skelton, Rosalind E., McIntosh, Daniel H., Somerville, Rachel S., Zheng, Xianzhong, ...
Both observations and simulations show that major tidal interactions or mergers between gas-rich galaxies can lead to intense bursts of starformation. Yet, the average enhancement in star formation...
Wolf, Christian, Aragón-Salamanca, Alfonso, Balogh, Michael, Barden, Marco, Bell, Eric F., Gray, Meghan E., ...
Galaxies migrate from the blue cloud to the red sequence when their star formation is quenched. Here, we report on galaxies quenched by environmental effects and not by mergers or strong AGN as often...

This paper examines the potential benefits of an extension to the HTTP protocol that allows the web server and client to establish a session of HTTP messages as opposed to a sequence of independent...
Wolf, Christian, Aragon-Salamanca, Alfonso, Balogh, Michael, Barden, Marco, Bell, Eric F., Gray, Meghan E., ...
We investigate the properties of optically passive spirals and dusty red galaxies in the A901/2 cluster complex at redshift ~0.17 using restframe near-UV-optical SEDs, 24 micron IR data and HST...
STAGES: the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey (2008)
Gray, M. E., Wolf, Christian, Barden, Marco, Peng, Chien Y., Haeussler, Boris, Bell, Eric F., ...
We present an overview of the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey (STAGES). STAGES is a multiwavelength project designed to probe physical drivers of galaxy evolution across a wide range...

L Acoustic Ray-Tracing on Unstructured Adaptive Grids (2008)
David Bacon, Tom Dunn, Mary Hall, Ananthakrishna Sarma, Tim Wait
A computationally efficient acoustic ray-tracing code based on unstructured adaptive grids is described in detail. The use of unstructured grids allows wave propagation simulations on complex...
Heymans, Catherine, Gray, Meghan E., Peng, Chien Y., Van Waerbeke, Ludovic, Bell, Eric F., Wolf, Christian, ...
We present a high-resolution dark matter reconstruction of the z = 0.165 Abell 901/902 supercluster from a weak lensing analysis of the Hubble Space Telescope STAGES survey. We detect the four main...
Dark matter maps reveal cosmic scaffolding (2007)
Massey, Richard, Rhodes, Jason, Ellis, Richard, Scoville, Nick, Leauthaud, Alexie, Finoguenov, Alexis, ...
Ordinary baryonic particles (such as protons and neutrons) account for only one-sixth of the total matter in the Universe. The remainder is a mysterious "dark matter" component, which does not...

Souidi, Abdelkader, Becquart, Charlotte, Domain, Christophe, Terentyev, Dmitry, Malerba, Lorenzo, Calder, Andrew, ...
Groups of displacement cascades calculated independently with different codes and models are compared and used for object kinetic Monte Carlo (OKMC) simulations, in order to check the effect of the...
The Shear Testing Programme - I. Weak lensing analysis of simulated ground-based observations (2006)
Heymans, Catherine, Van Waerbeke, Ludovic, Bacon, David, Berge, Joel, Bernstein, Gary, Bertin, Emmanuel, ...
The Shear Testing Programme (STEP) is a collaborative project to improve the accuracy and reliability of all weak lensing measurements in preparation for the next generation of wide-field surveys. In...
The Shear TEsting Programme 1: Weak lensing analysis of simulated ground-based observations (2005)

Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) has developed a novel hazardous dispersion model with support from the Defense Special Weapons Agency. The Operational Multiscale Environment...
Thin Locks: Featherweight Synchronization for Java (1998)
David Bacon, Ravi Konuru, Chet Murthy, Mauricio Serrano
Language-supported synchronization is a source of serious performance problems in many Java programs. Even singlethreaded applications may spend up to half their time performing useless...
Pad++: A Zoomable Graphical Sketchpad for Exploring Alternate Interface Physics (1996)
Benjamin B. Bederson, James D. Hollan, Ken Perlin, Jonathan Meyer, David Bacon, George Furnas
user interface management system (UIMS). We describe Pad++, a zoomable graphical sketchpad that we are exploring as an alternative to traditional window and icon-based interfaces. We discuss the...

Two principal methods of determining the conformation of short pieces of polypeptide backbone in proteins have been developed: using a database of known structures and systematicallygenerating all...
Compiler Transformations for High-Performance Computing (1993)
David Bacon, Susan L. Graham, J. Sharp
In the last three decades a large number of compiler transformations for optimizing programs have been implemented. Most optimizations for uniprocessors reduce the number of instructions executed by...
We consider file system operation in a transparently fault-tolerant system that uses checkpointing and message logging. Logging messages to disk is one of the primary performance costs of such...
