Radio observational constraints on Galactic 3D-emission models
Context. Our position inside the Galaxy requires 3D-modelling to obtain the distribution of the Galactic magnetic field, cosmic-ray (CR) electrons and thermal electrons. Aims. Our intention is to find a Galactic 3D-model which agrees best with available radio observations. Methods. We constrain simulated all-sky maps in total intensity, linear polarization, and rotation measure (RM) by observat...
متن کاملExtended Red Emission: Photoluminescence by Interstellar Nanoparticles
Interstellar dust in nebulae and in the diffuse interstellar medium of galaxies contains a component which responds to illumination by ultraviolet photons with efficient luminescence in the 500 nm to 1000 nm spectral range, known as Extended Red Emission (ERE). We review the techniques of detection and the observational characteristics of the ERE in a wide range of astrophysical environments. W...
متن کاملInflation Models, Spectral Index and Observational Constraints
We have evaluated the observational constraints on the spectral index n, in the context of a ΛCDM model. For n scale-independent, as predicted by most models of inflation, present data require n ≃ 1.0 ± 0.1 at the 2-σ level. We have also studied the two-parameter scale-dependent spectral index, predicted by running-mass inflation models. Present data allow significant variation of n in this cas...
متن کاملObservational constraints on thawing quintessence models
We use a dynamical systems approach to study thawing quintessence models, using a multiparameter extension of the exponential potential which can approximate the form of typical thawing potentials. We impose observational constraints using a compilation of current data, and forecast the tightening of constraints expected from future dark energy surveys, as well as discussing the relation of our...
متن کاملExtended Red Emission in the “ Evil Eye ” Galaxy ( NGC 4826 )
NGC4826 (M64) is a nearby Sab galaxy with an outstanding, absorbing dust lane (called the " Evil Eye ") asymmetrically placed across its prominent bulge. In addition, its central region is associated with several regions of ongoing star formation activity. We obtained accurate low-resolution (4.3 ˚ A/pixel) long-slit spectroscopy (KPNO 4-Meter) of NGC4826 in the 5300 – 9100Å spectral range, wit...
