First-year Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II (SDSS-II) Supernova Results: Hubble Diagram and Cosmological Parameters (2009)

Kessler, Richard, Becker, Andrew, Cinabro, David, Vanderplas, Jake, Frieman, Joshua A., Marriner, John, ...

We present measurements of the Hubble diagram for 103 Type Ia supernovae (SNe) with redshifts 0.04 < z < 0.42, discovered during the first season (Fall 2005) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II...

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II: Photometry and Supernova Ia Light Curves from the 2005 data (2009)

Holtzman, Jon A., Marriner, John, Kessler, Richard, Sako, Masao, Dilday, Ben, Frieman, Joshua A., ...

We present ugriz light curves for 146 spectroscopically confirmed or spectroscopically probable Type Ia supernovae from the 2005 season of the SDSS-II Supernova survey. The light curves have been...

Extreme Astrophysics with Neutron Stars (2009)

Lai, Dong, Van Kerkwijk, Marten, Arons, Jon, Beloborodov, Andrei, Brown, Edward, Cordes, James, ...

We highlight recent theoretical and observational progress in several areas of neutron star astrophysics, and discuss the prospect for advances in the next decade.

Suzaku Observations of Extreme MeV Blazar SWIFT J0746.3+2548 (2008)

Watanabe, Shin, Sato, Rie, Takahashi, Tadayuki, Kataoka, Jun, Madejski, Greg, Sikora, Marek, ...

We report the Suzaku observations of the high luminosity blazar SWIFT J0746.3+2548 (J0746) conducted in November 2005. This object, with z = 2.979, is the highest redshift source observed in the...

Cryogenic Detectors Based on Superconducting Transition-Edge Sensors for Time-Energy Resolved Single-Photon Counters and for Dark Matter Searches (2007)

Blas Cabrera Roland, Aaron Miller, Sae Woo Nam, Roger Romani, Tarek Saab, Betty Young A

We present the recent progress using transition-edge-sensors (TES) for cryogenic particle detectors. First, by directly absorbing photons in tungsten TES devices, an instrument has been made which...

The Fall 2004 SDSS Supernova Survey (2005)

Sako, Masao, Romani, Roger, Frieman, Josh, Adelman-McCarthy, Jen, Becker, Andrew, DeJongh, Fritz, ...

In preparation for the Supernova Survey of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) II, a proposed 3-year extension to the SDSS, we have conducted an early engineering and science run during the fall of...

Development Of Phonon-Mediated Cryogenic Particle Detectors With Electron And Nuclear Recoil Discrimination (1998)

Sae Woo Nam, Blas Cabrera, Roger Romani

Observations have shown that galaxies, including our own, are surrounded by halos of "dark matter". One possibility is that this may be an undiscovered form of matter, weakly interacting...

Model Atmospheres for Low Field Neutron Stars (1995)

Rajagopal, Mohan, Romani, Roger

We compute model atmospheres and emergent spectra for low field (B

Mitochondrial Longevity In Vitro: The Retention of Respiratory Control*

Romani, Roger, Monadjem, Anna

Isolated mitochondria were maintained metabolically active and coupled, i.e., capable of respiratory control, for several hours at 25°C. An increase in respiratory control generally occurred during...

Temperature-dependent Changes in the Polysomal Population of Senescent (Ripening) Pear Fruit

Romani, Roger, French, Karen

A loss and recovery of polysomes coincident with the temperature-dependent interruption and resumption of pear fruit (Pyrus communis, L.) senescence establishes a close correlation between the...

Preparation of Avocado Mitochondria Using Self-Generated Percoll Density Gradients and Changes in Buoyant Density during Ripening

Moreau, Francois, Romani, Roger

Mitochondria from avocado (Persea americana Mill, var. Fuerte and Hass) can be rapidly prepared at every stage of ripening using differential centrifugation and self-generated Percoll gradients. The...

Malate Oxidation and Cyanide-Insensitive Respiration in Avocado Mitochondria during the Climacteric Cycle

Moreau, Francois, Romani, Roger

After preparation on self-generated Percoll gradients, avocado (Persea americana Mill, var. Fuerte and Hass) mitochondria retain a high proportion of cyanide-insensitive respiration, especially with...

Ethylene Production by Auxin-Deprived, Suspension-Cultured Pear Fruit Cells in Response to Auxins, Stress, or Precursor

Puschmann, Rolf, Romani, Roger

Auxin-deprived, mannitol-supplemented, suspension-cultured pear (Pyrus communis L. Passe Crassane) fruit cells produce large quantities (20-40 nanoliters ethylene per 106 cells per hour) of ethylene...

Ethylene Production by Suspension-Cultured Pear Fruit Cells as Related to Their Senescence

Puschmann, Rolf, Ke, Dangyang, Romani, Roger

Suspension-cultured pear fruit cells produce low levels of ethylene during growth and division in auxin containing medium. When deprived of auxin, division gradually ceases and ethylene production...
