  • The dark nature of GRB 051022 and its host galaxy

    Aims:We present multiwavelength (X-ray/optical/near-infrared/millimetre) observations of GRB 051022 between 2.5 h and 1.15 yr after the event. It is the most intense gamma-ray burst ( 10-4 erg cm-2) detected by HETE-2, with the exception of the nearby GRB 030329. Methods: Optical and near infrared observations did not detect the afterglow despite a

  • The DART imaging and CaT survey of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy

    Aims.As part of the DART project we have used the ESO/2.2m Wide Field Imager in conjunction with the VLT/FLAMES GIRAFFE spectrograph to study the detailed properties of the resolved stellar population of the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy out to and beyond its tidal radius. Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy has had a complicated evolution and contains

  • The Deep SPIRE HerMES Survey: spectral energy distributions and their astrophysical indications at high redshift

    The Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver on-board Herschel has been carrying out deep extragalactic surveys, one of the aims of which is to establish spectral energy distributions of individual galaxies spanning the infrared/submillimetre (IR/SMM) wavelength region. We report observations of the IR/SMM emission from the Lockman North field and

  • The Density, Extinction, Temperature, and Excitation Structures of NGC 2440

    We have observed the planetary nebula NGC 2440 in the transitions [O II] λ3727, He II λ4686, [O III] λλ(4363+5007), H I λλ(4861+6563), He I λ5876, [N II] λ6584, [S II] λλ(6717+6731), and [S III] λ9061, as well as in various continuum filters. As a result, we are able to evaluate the excitation structure of the source and determine the projected

  • The Detection of a Population of Submillimeter-Bright, Strongly Lensed Galaxies

    Gravitational lensing is a powerful astrophysical and cosmological probe and is particularly valuable at submillimeter wavelengths for the study of the statistical and individual properties of dusty star-forming galaxies. However, the identification of gravitational lenses is often time-intensive, involving the sifting of large volumes of imaging

  • The dust masses of powerful radio galaxies: clues to the triggering of their activity

    We use deep Herschel Space Observatory observations of a 90 per cent complete sample of 32 intermediate-redshift 2Jy radio galaxies (0.05 < z < 0.7) with strong emission lines to estimate the dust masses of their host galaxies and thereby investigate the triggering mechanisms for their quasar-like AGN. The dust masses derived for the radio galaxies
