  • Source subtraction for the extended Very Small Array and 33-GHz source count estimates
    We describe the source subtraction strategy and observations for the extended Very Small Array (VSA), a cosmic microwave background interferometer operating at 33 GHz. A total of 453 sources were monitored at 33 GHz using a dedicated source subtraction baseline. 131 sources brighter than 20 mJy were directly subtracted from the VSA visibility data

  • Resolving the Host Galaxies of Quasars at z = 2.5 with VLT + NACO.
    Based on the most widely accepted model for structure formation in the Universe, the massive galaxies we see today are the result of the merging of smaller structures. Looking far enough, and therefore far back in time, one should then be able to see galaxies getting smaller and smaller. To explore this issue we focus on quasars host galaxies and

  • Pointed RXTE observations of SAX J1808.4-3658
    Follow-up RXTE PCA observations of the transient source consistent with the position of SAX J1808.4-3658 (ATEL#505) showed clear coherent pulsations at approximately 401 Hz. This frequency is identical to the spin frequency of the neutron star in SAX J1808.4-3658 demonstrating that it is indeed SAX J1808.4-3658 which is in outburst again. During

  • Planetary nebulae in the dwarf galaxy NGC 6822: Detection of new candidates
    We have discovered 13 new candidate Planetary Nebulae (PNe) in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822, increasing its total number to 17 objects. Our sample of candidate PNe is complete down to 3.5 mag below the brightest PN.

  • Optical photometry and spectroscopy of HETE J1900.1-2544
    We report optical photometry and spectroscopy of the candidate optical/NIR counterpart (ATEL #526, #533) to the millisecond X-ray pulsar HETE J1900.1-2455 (ATEL #516, #523, #538). Its consistency with the recent SWIFT localisation (ATEL #541) and our ground-based observations confirm its association with the X-ray source. Photometry was acquired
