The August 2010 edition of the AAO newsletter has been newly updated and renamed the AAO Observer as we become the Australian Astronomical Observatory. This edition contains articles on the Galaxy And Mass Assembly survey, a bipolar Type I…
The February 2009 edition of the AAO newsletter contains articles on the preliminary results from the WiggleZ dark energy survey, the analysis of near-IR observations of the galaxy IRAS18293-3413, the early results from the SPIRAL IFU…
The newsletter of the Australian Astronomical Observatory. In this issue: SPIE Extravaganza; The AAO's Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) concept; First Cosmological Constraints from the 6dFGS Peculiar Velocity Field;…
The August 2009 edition of the AAO newsletter contains articles on observations of the lunar impact of the Kaguya satellite, mapping the ISM towards Omega Centauri, early results from the Anglo-Australian Rocky Planet search, details of a…
This edition of the Australian Astronomical Observatory Observer contains articles on the commissioning of the new SAMI instrument giving the first hexabundle galaxy spectra; galaxy parameter variations across and through the 6dFGS…
The past four years have seen a scientific revolution through the birth of a new field: gravitational-wave astronomy. The first detection of gravitational waves---recognised by the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics---provided unprecedented tests…
We present an analysis of the relative throughputs of the 3.9-metre Anglo-Australian Telescope's 2dF/HERMES system, based upon spectra acquired during the first two years of the GALAH survey. Averaged spectral fluxes of stars were compared…
AAOmega is the new spectrograph for the 2dF fibre-positioning system on the Anglo-Australian Telescope. It is a bench-mounted, double-beamed design, using volume phase holographic (VPH) gratings and articulating cameras. It is fed by 392…
The High Efficiency and Resolution Multi Element Spectrograph, HERMES, is a facility-class optical spectrograph for the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). It is designed primarily for Galactic Archaeology, the first major attempt to create a…
Advanced LIGO's second observing run (O2), conducted from November 30, 2016 to August 25, 2017, combined with Advanced Virgo's first observations in August 2017 witnessed the birth of gravitational-wave multi-messenger astronomy. The first…
By constantly monitoring at least one complete hemisphere of the sky, neutrino telescopes are well designed to detect neutrinos emitted by transient astrophysical events. Real-time searches with the ANTARES telescope have been performed to…
In 2006 ESO Council authorized a Phase B study of a European AO-telescope with a 42 m segmented primary with a 5-mirror design, the E-ELT. Several reports and working groups have already presented science cases for an E-ELT, specifically…
Table of contents Editorial. Gravity News: Report on the APS topical group in gravitation, Beverly Berger. Research briefs: Gravitational microlensing and the search for dark matter, Bohdan Paczynski. Laboratory gravity: the G mystery,…
Here we present two of our interesting results obtained over the last 18 months from spectroscopic monitoring of binary pulsating stars and exoplanet host stars. Our investigations are very promising by demonstrating that modern fiber-fed…
The first observations by a worldwide network of advanced interferometric gravitational wave detectors offer a unique opportunity for the astronomical community. At design sensitivity, these facilities will be able to detect coalescing…
The H.E.S.S. high-energy gamma-ray observatory is member of the Virgo/LIGO electromagnetic follow-up effort since early 2014. Its capability for transient follow-up studies benefits from its large field of view, rapid response time and high…
During the next decade a tremendous advance will take place in instrumentation for spectroscopy of the interstellar medium. Major new facilities (ALMA, SOFIA, APEX, LMT, Herschel and others) will be constructed and commissioned, so that the…
The detection of a neutron star merger by the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) and Advanced Virgo gravitational wave detectors and the subsequent detection of an electromagnetic counterpart has opened a…
Accurate and precise radius estimates of transiting exoplanets are critical for understanding their compositions and formation mechanisms. To know the planet, we must know the host star in as much detail as possible. We present first…
