Solar oscillations are expected to be excited by turbulent flows in the intergranular lanes near the solar surface. Time series recorded by the IMaX instrument on board the SUNRISE observatory reveal solar oscillations at high spatial resolution, which allow the study of the properties of oscillations with short wavelengths. We analyze two time

We report optical spectroscopy of the putative optical counterpart to the Swift source J052522.48+241331.8 (Page, Tueller & Beardmore 2007, ATEL #1279). We note that the XRT position (ATEL #1279) is consistent with that of the ROSAT source 1RXS J052523.2+241331. Using the X-ray flux and power-law model reported in ATEL #1279, we computed with

The Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic survey (SWIRE; Lonsdale et al., 2003PASP..115..897L) Version 1.0 data products release includes an image atlas and a source catalogs from the first of the 6 SWIRE fields to be observed by Spitzer, the ELAIS-N1 field. The release includes both Spitzer IRAC and MIPS mid/far-infrared data products and also

The SWIRE Photometric Redshift Catalogue consists of 1025119 sources, split between the SWIRE fields as follows: EN1 (218117), EN2 (125364), Lockman (229238), SWIRE-VVDS (34630), SWIRE-SXDS (55432), XMM-LSS (excluding VVDS and SXDS) (212572), Chandra DFS (149766). It is available via IRSA and also at http://astro.ic.ac.uk/~mrr/swirephotzcat . The

We present the SWIRE Photometric Redshift Catalogue 1 025 119 redshifts of unprecedented reliability and of accuracy comparable with or better than previous work. Our methodology is based on fixed galaxy and quasi-stellar object templates applied to data at 0.36-4.5um, and on a set of four infrared emission templates fitted to infrared excess data

Intermediate-resolution (0.5-1 Å) optical spectroscopy of the cataclysmic variable (CV) SY Cnc reveals the spectrum of the donor star. Our data enable us to resolve the orbital motion of the donor and provide a new orbital solution, binary mass ratio and spectral classification. We find that the donor star has spectral-type G8 +/- 2 V and orbits
