MOIRCS Deep Survey. I: DRG Number Counts
Ouchi, Masami; Tanaka, Ichi; Yamada, Toru +11 more
We use very deep near-infrared imaging data taken with Multi-Object InfraRed Camera and Spectrograph (MOIRCS) on the Subaru Telescope to investigate the number counts of Distant Red Galaxies (DRGs). We have observed a 4x7 arcmin^2 field in the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey North (GOODS-N), and our data reach J=24.6 and K=23.2 (5sigma, Ve…
Milliarcsecond-Scale Spectral Properties and Jet Motions in M 87
Dodson, Richard; Edwards, Philip G.; Hirabayashi, Hisashi
We have combined high resolution VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP) data at 1.6 and 4.8GHz with Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) data at higher frequencies and with similar resolutions to study the spectral properties of the core of M 87 with milliarcsec resolution. The VSOP data allows a more accurate measurement of the turnover frequency, an…
The Virgo High-Resolution CO Survey: VI. Gas Dynamics and Star Formation along the Bar in NGC 4303
Koda, Jin; Sofue, Yoshiaki
We present CO interferometer observations of the barred galaxy NGC 4303 (M 61). This galaxy has a strong gas concentration at the central region and prominent offset ridges at the leading sides of the bar. Sharp velocity gradients are apparent across the ridges. The brightness temperature in the ridges is low, indicating the existence of unresolve…
New Corroborative Evidence for the Overdensity of Galaxies around the Radio-Loud Quasar SDSS J0836+0054 at z = 5.8
Nagao, Tohru; Taniguchi, Yoshiaki; Ajiki, Masaru +8 more
Recently, Zheng et al. (2006) found evidence for an overdensity of galaxies around a radio-loud quasar, SDSS J0836+0054, at z = 5.8 (a 5 arcmin² field). We examined our deep optical imaging data (B, V, r', i', z', and NB816) taken with the Suprime-Cam on the Subaru Telescope. The NB816 narrow-band filter (λc = 815 and Δλ = 12nm) is suit…
