The Cosmic Microwave Background Spectrum from the Full COBE/FIRAS Data Set

TL;DR: In this paper, the Far InfraRed Absolute Spectrophotometer (FIRAS) on board the COBE (COsmic Background Explorer) was used to measure the difference between the cosmic microwave background and a precise blackbody spectrum.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infrared Luminosities and Aromatic Features in the 24um Flux Limited Sample of 5MUSES

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors estimate accurate total infrared luminosities by combining mid-IR spectroscopy and mid-to-far infrared photometry, and by utilizing new empirical spectral templates from {\em Spitzer} data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for a variable far-infrared source in NGC 6334

TL;DR: In this paper, NGC 6334 has been mapped with a 40-250 µm photometer with 1' resolution and six sources of far-infrared radiation have been detected.
Journal ArticleDOI

DIRBE Minus 2MASS: Confirming the CIRB in 40 New Regions at 2.2 and 3.5 Microns

TL;DR: In this paper, stellar fluxes from 2MASS are used to remove the contribution due to Galactic stars from the intensity measured by DIRBE in 40 new regions in the North and South Galactic polar caps.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parallaxes and Proper Motions of Ultracool Brown Dwarfs of Spectral Types Y and Late T

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a Bayesian procedure for distance estimation of 11 nearby ultracool brown dwarfs of spectral types Y and late-T, based on imaging observations from a variety of space-based and ground-based telescopes.
