Kavli Affiliate: Stuart Marshall | First 5 Authors: Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson, Bob Abel, Emily Acosta | Summary: (Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a single wide-deep-fast sky survey, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Kahn | First 5 Authors: Chen Zheng, Roger W. Romani, Masao Sako, John Marriner, Bruce Bassett | Summary: This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band light curves of supernovae in the redshift range […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew P. Rasmussen | First 5 Authors: Andrew P. Rasmussen, Steven M. Kahn, Frits Paerels, Jan Willem den Herder, Jelle Kaastra | Summary: In a series of papers, Nicastro et al. have reported the detection of z>0 OVII absorption features in the spectrum of Mrk421 obtained with the Chandra Low Energy Transmission Grating […]
Kavli Affiliate: Homer A. Neal | First 5 Authors: Homer A. Neal, Eduard De La Cruz Burelo, , , | Summary: A continuing mystery in particle physics is the large polarization observed in inclusive hyperon production in high energy p-p collisions. In this paper the authors advance the concept that the polarization effects can be […]
Kavli Affiliate: Robert A. Cameron | First 5 Authors: Martin C. Weisskopf, Thomas L. Aldcroft, Robert A. Cameron, Poshak Gandhi, Cédric Foellmi | Summary: Before the official first-light images, the Chandra X-Ray Observatory obtained an X-ray image of the field to which its focal plane was first exposed. We describe this historic observation and report […]
Kavli Affiliate: Andrew P. Rasmussen | First 5 Authors: Thierry Lanz, Gisela A. Telis, Marc Audard, Frits Paerels, Andrew P. Rasmussen | Summary: We present a non-LTE model atmosphere analysis of Chandra HRC-S/LETG and XMM-Newton RGS spectroscopy of the prototypical supersoft source CAL 83 in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Taken with a 16-month interval, the […]
