    The Quest for Microwave Foreground X
    The Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) team has produced a foreground map that can account for most of the low-frequency Galactic microwave emission in...

    The QUEST RR Lyrae Survey: Confirmation of the Clump at 50 Kiloparsecs and Other Overdensities in the Outer Halo
    We have measured the periods and light curves of 148 RR Lyrae variables from V=13.5 to 19.7 from the first 100 deg2 of the Quasar Equatorial Survey Team RR...

    The Radial Distribution of Mono-metallicity Populations in the Galactic Disk as Evidence for Two-phase Disk Formation
    Recent determinations of the radial distributions of mono-metallicity populations (MMPs, i.e., stars in narrow bins in [Fe/H] within wider [α/Fe] ranges) by the...

    The Radio Spectral Energy Distribution and Star-formation Rate Calibration in Galaxies
    We study the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the radio continuum (RC) emission from the Key Insight in Nearby Galaxies Emitting in Radio (KINGFISHER)...

    The Realm of the Galactic Globular Clusters and the Mass of Their Primordial Clouds
    By adopting the empirical constraints related to the estimates of helium enhancement ({{Δ }}Y), the present mass ratio between first and second stellar...

    The Recent Stellar Archeology of M31—The Nearest Red Disk Galaxy
    We examine the star-forming history of the M31 disk during the past few hundred Myr. The luminosity functions (LFs) of main-sequence stars at distances R GC >...

    The Redshift Distribution of Flat-Spectrum Radio Sources
    The redshift distribution of flat-spectrum radio sources with 5 GHz flux densities S5>~5 mJy is a key component in using current radio lens surveys to probe the...

    The Remarkable Alternating Spectra of the Of?p Star HD 191612
    The spectrum of HD 191612 has been found to display large, recurrent variations between two highly reproducible, peculiar states; at least four transformations...

    The Resolved Stellar Populations of a Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy in the Virgo Cluster
    We report on the discovery of a faint (MV~-10.6+/-0.2) dwarf spheroidal galaxy on deep F606W and F814W Hubble Space Telescope images of a Virgo intracluster...
