Robust diffraction-limited near-infrared-to-near-ultraviolet wide-field imaging from stratospheric balloon-borne platforms—Super-pressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope performance. Review of Scientific Instruments, 91(3), Article 034501. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.5139711

At a fraction of the total cost of an equivalent orbital mission, scientific balloon-borne platforms, operating above 99.7% of the Earth’s atmosphere, offer attractive, competitive, and effective observational capabilities—namely, space-like seeing,...

A search for Centaurus A-like features in the spectra of Fermi-LAT detected radio galaxies (2020)
Journal Article
Rulten, C. B., Brown, A. M., & Chadwick, P. M. (2020). A search for Centaurus A-like features in the spectra of Fermi-LAT detected radio galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 492(2), 4666-4679. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa054

Motivated by the detection of a hardening in the γ-ray spectrum of the radio galaxy CentaurusA, we have analysed ∼10 years of Fermi-LAT observations of 26 radio galaxies to search for similar spectral features. We find that the majority of the radio... Read More about A search for Centaurus A-like features in the spectra of Fermi-LAT detected radio galaxies.
