Spatial Variation in Strong Line Ratios and Physical Conditions in Two Strongly-Lensed Galaxies at z~1.4
Michael Florian,Jane R. Rigby,Ayan Acharyya,Keren Sharon,Michael D. Gladders,Lisa J. Kewley,G. Khullar,K. Gozman,Gabriel Brammer,Ivelina Momcheva,David C. Nicholls,Stephanie M. LaMassa,Håkon Dahle,Matthew B. Bayliss,Eva Wuyts,Traci L. Johnson,Katherine E. Whitaker +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined two sources, SDSS J1723+3411 and SDSs J2340+2947, using HST WFC3/IR grism data and supporting spatially-unresolved spectroscopy from several ground-based instruments to explore the size of spatial variations in observed strong emission line ratios like O32, R23, which are sensitive to ionization parameter and metallicity, and the Balmer decrement as an indicator of reddening.

TL;DR: In this paper, the MIPS photometry of 20 radio-loud quasars and galaxies at 24 and 70 um (and of five at 160 um) was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carnegie Hubble Program: A Mid-Infrared Calibration of the Hubble Constant
Wendy L. Freedman,Barry F. Madore,Victoria Scowcroft,Christopher R. Burns,Andy Monson,S. Eric Persson,Mark Seibert,Jane R. Rigby +7 more
TL;DR: Using a mid-infrared calibration of the Cepheid distance scale based on recent observations at 3.6 um with the Spitzer Space Telescope, the systematic uncertainty in H0 over that obtained by the HST Key Project has decreased by over a factor of three as mentioned in this paper.
