Description
Since 1998 the Earthshine Project has been a collaborative effort between Big Bear Solar Observatory/New Jersey Institute of Technology and California Institute of Technology. Cyclic spectroscopic observations of the dark and bright sides of the moon (or earthshine and moonshine, respectively) have been carried out in the visible region at Palomar Observatory. From these data, the ratio of the earthshine to moonshine characterizes the globally averaged Earth's spectrum. Information concerning the search for extra-solar, terrestrial planets can be also obtained from these observations.

    The European Low Frequency Survey. Observing the radio sky to understand the beginning of the Universe

    In this paper we present the European Low Frequency Survey (ELFS), a project that will enable the detection of primordial B-mode polarization by measuring the Galactic and extra-Galactic foregrounds in the 5- 120 GHz frequency window. Indeed, the main difficulty in measuring the Bmode polarization comes not just from its sheer faintness, but from

    Estimation of the hydrostatic-to-lensing mass bias from resolved cluster masses

    We present a study on the bias of hydrostatic masses with respect to lensing mass estimates for a sample of 53 clusters in a redshift range between z = 0.05 and 1.07. The M 500 mass for each cluster was inferred from X-ray and lensing data, without using a priori observable-mass scaling relations. Cluster masses of our reference analysis were

    IRAM 30-meter millimeter follow-up of deep OSIRIS-GTC optical surveys

    It is broadly accepted that CO is a reliable tracer of H2 in massive IR (L IR ≳ 10 9 L ⊙) galaxies, and that there are clear correlations between L IR and L' CO that are qualitatively independent of environment and even redshift. We present two tales on the search for 12CO emission from dusty star-forming galaxies in both field (Lockman Hole, z < 0
