We have measured the radial light profiles and global shapes of bars using two-dimensional 3.6 μm image decompositions for 144 face-on barred galaxies from the...

PublicationThe mass ratio of Nova MUSCAE 1991
We report intermediate resolution H alpha spectroscopy of the black hole candidate Nova Muscae 1991 during quiescence. We classify the companion star as a K3...

PublicationThe Mass-Metallicity Relation at z 1-2 and Its Dependence on the Star Formation Rate
We present a new measurement of the gas-phase mass-metallicity relation (MZR) and its dependence on star formation rates (SFRs) at 1.3 < z < 2.3. Our sample...

PublicationThe masses, and the mass discrepancy of O-type stars
Context. The “mass discrepancy” in massive O stars represents a long-standing problem in stellar astrophysics with far-reaching implications for the chemical...

PublicationThe massive multiple system HD 64315
Context. The O6 Vn star HD 64315 is believed to belong to the star-forming region known as NGC 2467, but previous distance estimates do not support this...

PublicationThe Massive Neutron Star or Low-Mass Black Hole in 2S 0921-630
We report on the optical spectroscopy of the eclipsing halo low-mass X-ray binary 2S 0921-630, which reveals the absorption-line radial velocity curve of the K0...

PublicationThe Massive Progenitor of the Possible Type II-Linear Supernova 2009hd in Messier 66
We present early- and late-time photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2009hd in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 3627 (M66). This SN is one...

PublicationThe massive relic galaxy NGC 1277 is dark matter deficient. From dynamical models of integral-field stellar kinematics out to five effective radii
According to the Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology, present-day galaxies with stellar masses M ⋆ > 10 11 M ⊙ should contain a sizable fraction of dark matter...

PublicationThe massive white dwarf in the recurrent nova TCrB
We have obtained I-, J-, H- and K-band light curves of the recurrent nova TCrB. We find that we can fit the J-band light curve only with a Roche lobe filling...
