Observations of Sagittarius A* during the pericenter passage of the G2 object with MAGIC

Context. We present the results of a multi-year monitoring campaign of the Galactic center (GC) with the MAGIC telescopes. These observations were primarily motivated by reports that a putative gas cloud (G2) would be passing in close proximity to the supe ...

The formation of the Milky Way halo and its dwarf satellites; a NLTE-1D abundance analysis II. Early chemical enrichment

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

We present the non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) abundances of up to 10 chemical species in a sample of 59 very metal-poor (VMP, -4

Toward an Internally Consistent Astronomical Distance Scale

Frédéric Courbin

Accurate astronomical distance determination is crucial for all fields in astrophysics, from Galactic to cosmological scales. Despite, or perhaps because of, significant efforts to determine accurate distances, using a wide range of methods, tracers, and t ...

High-redshift supernova rates measured with the gravitational telescope A 1689

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Johan Richard

Aims. We present a ground-based, near-infrared search for lensed supernovae behind the massive cluster Abell 1689 at z = 0.18, which is one of the most powerful gravitational telescopes that nature provides. Methods. Our survey was based on multi-epoch J-b ...

Lensed Type Ia supernovae as probes of cluster mass models

Jean-Paul Richard Kneib, Hakim Atek, Johan Richard

Using three magnified Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) detected behind CLASH (Cluster Lensing and Supernovae with Hubble) clusters, we perform a first pilot study to see whether standardizable candles can be used to calibrate cluster mass maps created from stro ...

VLT/FLAMES spectroscopy of red giant branch stars in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

Context. Fornax is one of the most massive dwarf spheroidal galaxies in the Local Group. The Fornax field star population is dominated by intermediate age stars but star formation was going on over almost its entire history. It has been proposed that Forna ...

Searching for soft relativistic jets in core-collapse supernovae with the IceCube optical follow-up program

Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Matthias Wolf, Xiaoxia Bai

Context. Transient neutrino sources such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and supernovae (SNe) are hypothesized to emit bursts of high-energy neutrinos on a time-scale of less than or similar to 100 s. While GRB neutrinos would be produced in high relativistic j ...

Novel technique for supernova detection with IceCube

Mathieu Ribordy

The current supernova detection technique used in IceCube relies on the sudden deviation of the summed photomultiplier noise rate from its nominal value during the neutrino burst, making IceCube a approximate to 3 Megaton effective detection volume - class ...

Nucleosynthesis And The Inhomogeneous Chemical Evolution Of The Carina Dwarf Galaxy

Pascale Jablonka

The detailed abundances of 23 chemical elements in nine bright red giant branch stars in the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy are presented based on high-resolution spectra gathered at the Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Magellan telescopes. A spherical model ...

Manganese in dwarf spheroidal galaxies

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North

We provide manganese abundances (corrected for the effect of the hyperfine structure) for a large number of stars in the dwarf spheroidal galaxies Sculptor and Fornax, and for a smaller number in the Carina and Sextans dSph galaxies. Abundances had already ...

Constraints on high-energy neutrino emission from SN 2008D

Shirit Cohen, Mathieu Ribordy, Matthias Wolf, Xiaoxia Bai

SN 2008D, a core collapse supernova at a distance of 27 Mpc, was serendipitously discovered by the Swift satellite through an associated X-ray flash. Core collapse supernovae have been observed in association with long gamma-ray bursts and X-ray flashes an ...
