An AzTEC 1.1-mm survey for ULIRGs in the field of the Galaxy Cluster MS0451.6-0305 (2010)
Journal Article
Wardlow, J., Smail, I., Wilson, G., Yun, M., Coppin, K., Cybulski, R., …Scott, K. (2010). An AzTEC 1.1-mm survey for ULIRGs in the field of the Galaxy Cluster MS0451.6-0305. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 401(4), 2299-2317. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2009.15847.x

We have undertaken a deep (σ∼ 1.1 mJy) 1.1-mm survey of the z= 0.54 cluster MS 0451.6−0305 using the AzTEC camera on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope. We detect 36 sources with signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) ≥ 3.5 in the central 0.10 deg2 and present t...

The RASS-6dFGS catalogue: a sample of X-ray selected AGN from the 6dF Galaxy Survey (2010)
Journal Article
Mahony, E., Croom, S., Boyle, B., Edge, A., Mauch, T., & Sadler, E. (2010). The RASS-6dFGS catalogue: a sample of X-ray selected AGN from the 6dF Galaxy Survey. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 401(2), 1151-1165. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2009.15705.x

We present a catalogue of 3405 X-ray sources from the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) Bright Source Catalogue which fall within the area covered by the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS). The catalogue is count-rate limited at 0.05 cts s−1 in the X-ray and covers... Read More about The RASS-6dFGS catalogue: a sample of X-ray selected AGN from the 6dF Galaxy Survey.

Detection of Far-Infrared and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission from the Cosmic Eye: Probing the Dust and Star Formation of Lyman Break Galaxies (2009)
Journal Article
Siana, B., Smail, I., Swinbank, A., Richard, J., Teplitz, H., Coppin, K., …Edge, A. (2009). Detection of Far-Infrared and Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission from the Cosmic Eye: Probing the Dust and Star Formation of Lyman Break Galaxies. Astrophysical Journal, 698(2), 1273-1281. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-637x/698/2/1273

We report the results of a Spitzer infrared (IR) study of the Cosmic Eye, a strongly lensed, L*UV Lyman break galaxy (LBG) at z = 3.074. We obtained Spitzer mid-IR spectroscopy as well as MIPS 24 and 70 μm photometry. The Eye is detected with high si...

An Infrared Survey of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II. Why are Some Brightest Cluster Galaxies Forming Stars? (2008)
Journal Article
O'Dea, C., Baum, S., Privon, G., Noel-Storr, J., Quillen, A., Zufelt, N., …Egami, E. (2008). An Infrared Survey of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II. Why are Some Brightest Cluster Galaxies Forming Stars?. Astrophysical Journal, 681(2), 1035-1045. https://doi.org/10.1086/588212

Quillen et al. presented an imaging survey with the Spitzer Space Telescope of 62 brightest cluster galaxies with optical line emission located in the cores of X-ray-luminous clusters. They found that at least half of these sources have signs of exce... Read More about An Infrared Survey of Brightest Cluster Galaxies. II. Why are Some Brightest Cluster Galaxies Forming Stars?.

First-Year Spectroscopy for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey (2008)
Journal Article
Zheng, C., Romani, R., Sako, M., Marriner, J., Bassett, B., Becker, A., …York, D. (2008). First-Year Spectroscopy for the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II Supernova Survey. Astronomical Journal, 135(5), 1766-1784. https://doi.org/10.1088/0004-6256/135/5/1766

This paper presents spectroscopy of supernovae (SNe) discovered in the first season of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey-II SN Survey. This program searches for and measures multi-band light curves of SNe in the redshift range z = 0.05-0.4, complementing...
