  • The hyperluminous infrared quasar 3C 318 and its implications for interpreting submm detections of high-redshift radio galaxies
    We present near-infrared spectroscopy and imaging of the compact steep-spectrum radio source 3C 318, which shows it to be a quasar at redshift z=1.574 (the z=0.752 value previously reported is incorrect). 3C 318 is an IRAS, ISO and SCUBA source so its new redshift makes it the most intrinsically luminous far-infrared (FIR) source in the 3C

  • The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of BL Lacertae Objects. II. Host Galaxies
    We have used the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 camera to survey 132 BL Lac objects comprising seven complete radio-, X-ray-, and optically selected samples. We obtained useful images for 110 targets spanning the redshift range 0

  • The Hubble Space Telescope Survey of BL Lacertae Objects. I. Surface Brightness Profiles, Magnitudes, and Radii of Host Galaxies
    We report on a large Hubble Space Telescope imaging survey of BL Lac objects, at spatial resolution >~10 times better than previous ground-based surveys. We focus on data reduction and analysis, describing the procedures used to model the host galaxy surface brightness radial profiles. A total of 69 host galaxies were resolved out of 110 objects

  • The H -> gamma gamma in Multi-Higgs doublet models
    We study the dominant decays of the lightest Higgs boson in models with 2 and 3 Higgs doublets, for the case when its couplings to fermions are absent at tree-level. It is found that the branching ratio for the decay $H o gammagamma$ is above the one into fermion pairs, which is evaluated also at the 1-loop level.

  • The Effect of Piston Errors on the Image Quality of Ground-Based Segmented Mirror Telescopes
    The errors associated with a segmented primary mirror limit the image quality obtainable with those astronomical telescopes which employ them. It is necessary to derive the effects of segmentation errors on image quality in order to determine realistic error budgets for such telescopes. The main segmentation errors are misalignment and piston of
