The present-day black hole (BH) populations of globular clusters (GCs) have far-reaching implications for the evolution of these systems and the production of gravitational wave sources. Despite this, our ability to ...
The distance to the Galactic center inferred from OGLE RR Lyrae variables observed in the direction of the bulge is R0 = 8.1 ± 0.6 kpc. An accurate determination ofR0 is ...
Recent concerns over rising oil prices and greenhouse gas emissions have sparked an interest for the production of first generation biofuels on marginal agricultural land in Eastern Canada. Field trials were ...
We present an investigation of the globular cluster population synthesis method of McWilliam & Bernstein, focusing on the impact of non-LTE (NLTE) modeling effects and color-magnitude diagram (CMD) discretization. ...
The Canada-France Imaging Survey (CFIS) will map the northern high Galactic latitude sky in the u-band ("CFIS-u," 10,000 deg2) and in the r-band ("CFIS-r," 5000 deg2), ...
A VI Wesenheit and period-colour analysis based on new OGLE observations reaffirms Ferrarese et al. discovery of 5 Type II Cepheids in NGC 5128. The distance to that comparatively unreddened population ...
We report the discovery of an enigmatic large-amplitude (ΔKs > 10.5 mag) transient event in near-IR data obtained by the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) ESO Public Survey. The object ...
We present a photometric detection of the first brightness dips of the unique variable star KIC 8462852 since the end of the Kepler space mission in 2013 May. Our regular photometric surveillance started ...
