Monday, November 16, 2009Ly-alpha Emission from Galaxy FormationSeminar: TAC Seminars | November 16 | 12:10-1 p.m. | 544 Campbell Hall Claude-Andre Faucher-Giguere, Harvard Astronomers have exquisite observations of both galaxies (by directly imaging their stars) and of the intergalactic medium (in absorption spectra of background sources). While we know that the galactic baryons must have been accreted from the IGM, we currently have virtually no direct observations of the galaxy assembly process itself. Contrary to the classical picture of galaxy...

These quasars were selected by matching FIRST radio sources, 2MASS point sources and very red optical counterparts with r'-K > 5. Most of these objects have fairly compact radio morphologies and fall into the radio-intermediate regime. The majority also show flat radio... More > Tuesday, November 17, 2009Cosmological Constraints Using Multi-Wavelength Observations of Galaxy ClustersSeminar: Cosmology Seminars | November 17 | 1:10-2 p.m. | 544 Campbell Hall Eli Rykoff, UCSB Galaxy clusters, as the largest peaks in the cosmic density field, play an important role in astrophysics and cosmology. They are remarkable objects: massive, dynamic, and rich in observables. Accurate determination of cluster scaling relations and cosmological parameters such as sigma_8 and omega_m requires large samples of uniformly observed clusters. The SDSS maxBCG catalog is a...
