Astronomical Data Management (2008)
Ray Norris, Heinz Andernach, Guenther Eichhorn, Françoise Genova, Elizabeth Griffin, Robert Hanisch, ...
Abstract. We present a summary of the major contributions to the Special Session on Data Management held at the IAU General Assembly in Prague in 2006. While recent years have seen enormous...
NICMOS Measurements of the Near Infrared Background (2008)
Thompson, Rodger I., Eisenstein, Daniel, Fan, Xiaohui, Rieke, Marcia, Kennicutt, Robert
This paper addresses the nature of the near infrared background. We investigate whether there is an excess background at 1.4 microns, what is the source of the near infrared background and whether...

We present a summary of the major contributions to the Special Session on Data Management held at the IAU General Assembly in Prague in 2006. While recent years have seen enormous improvements in...
Drozdovsky, Igor, Yan, Lin, Chen, Hsiao-Wen, Stern, Daniel, Kennicutt Jr., Robert, Spinrad, Hyron, ...
We present the first results from the HST/ACS Grism Parallel Survey, a large program obtaining deep, slitless ACS grism spectroscopy of high-latitude HST parallel fields. We report on 11 high...
Limits on Hubble Constant from the Distance of M100 (2004)
Mould, Jeremy, Huchra, John P., Bresolin, Fabio, Ferrarese, Laura, Ford, Holland C., Freedman, Wendy L., ...
We examine the consequences of a 17 Mpc M100 distance, questioning its consistency with supernova and other distances.
Discovery of a Group of Star-Forming Dwarf Galaxies in Abell 1367 (2002)
Sakai, Shoko, Kennicutt, Robert, Van Der Hulst, J. M., Moss, Chris
We describe the properties of a remarkable group of actively star-forming dwarf galaxies and HII galaxies in the Abell 1367 cluster, which were discovered in a large-scale H-alpha imaging survey of...
A Deep, Wide-Field H-alpha Survey of Nearby Clusters of Galaxies (2000)
Sakai, Shoko, Kennicutt, Robert, Moss, Chris
We present a progress report on an ongoing H-alpha imaging survey of nearby clusters of galaxies. Four clusters have been surveyed to date: A1367, A1656, A347 and A569. A preliminary comparison of...
The Tip of the Red Giant Branch Distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud (1999)
Sakai, Shoko, Zaritsky, Dennis, Kennicutt, Robert
We present the I-band luminosity function of the red giant branch stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using the data from the Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey (Zaritsky, Harris & Thompson,...
The Hubble Constant from the HST Key Project on the Extragalactic Distance Scale (1999)
Ferrarese, Laura, Gibson, Brad, Kelson, Daniel, Sakai, Shoko, Mould, Jeremy, Freedman, Wendy, ...
The final efforts of the HST Key Project on the Extragalactic Distance Scale are presented. Four distance indicators, the Surface Brightness Fluctuation method, the Fundamental Plane for early-type...
