Correlation Analysis between Tibet AS-γ TeV Cosmic Ray and WMAP Nine-year Data
DOI: 10.1088/0004-637X/808/2/193 Bibcode: 2015ApJ...808..193Y

Zhang, Shuang-Nan; Yin, Qian-Qing

The WMAP team subtracted template-based foreground models to produce foreground-reduced maps, and masked point sources and uncertain sky regions directly; however, whether foreground residuals exist in the WMAP foreground-reduced maps is still an open question. Here, we use Pearson correlation coefficient analysis with AS-γ TeV cosmic ray (CR) dat…

On the detection of point sources in Planck LFI 70 GHz CMB maps based on cleaned K-map
DOI: 10.1142/S0217732315500832 Bibcode: 2015MPLA...3050083K

Kashin, A. L.; Khachatryan, H. G.; Poghosyan, E. +1 more

We use the Planck LFI 70 GHz data to further probe point source detection technique in the sky maps of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. The method developed by Tegmark et al. for foreground reduced maps and the Kolmogorov parameter as the descriptor are adopted for the analysis of Planck satellite CMB temperature data. Most of the …

Hinode SOT Plate Scale Reinvestigated by G-Band Images on the 2012 Transit of Venus
DOI: 10.1007/s11207-015-0675-2 Bibcode: 2015SoPh..290.1491K

Shimizu, T.; Imamura, T.; Nakamura, M. +1 more

The Hinode Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) successfully observed the transit of Venus with an unprecedented high spatial resolution on 5 - 6 June 2012, providing images of the aureole refracted by the atmosphere of Venus and the dark Venus disk against the bright solar surface. The transit of Venus provided a unique opportunity for calibrating the p…

Probing the Hidden Geology of Isidis Planitia (Mars) with Impact Craters
DOI: 10.3390/geosciences5010030 Bibcode: 2015Geosc...5...30C

Orosei, Roberto; Caprarelli, Graziella

In this study we investigated Isidis Planitia, a 1325 km diameter multi-ring impact basin intersecting the Martian hemispheric dichotomy, located in the eastern hemisphere, between Syrtis Major and Utopia Planitia. From Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter gridded data we observed that in the center of Isidis the -3700 m and -3800 m isolines strike NW-SE,…

Physical properties of distant red galaxies in the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field
DOI: 10.1093/pasj/psv059 Bibcode: 2015PASJ...67...91M

Fang, Guanwen; Kong, Xu; Fan, Lulu +1 more

We present a study on physical properties for a large distant red galaxy (DRG) sample, using the K-selected multi-band photometry catalog of the COSMOS/UltraVISTA field and the CANDELS near-infrared data. Our sample includes 4485 DRGs with (J - K)AB > 1.16 and KAB < 23.4 mag, and 132 DRGs have HST/WFC3 morphological mea…
