Cones of ionizing radiation in Seyfert galaxies: probing the central engine.
Highly ionized large scale structures have recently been observed in many active galaxies. There is evidence that photoionization by the active nucleus may be...
Confidence Limits of SN, Kinetic Energy and Chemical Yields in Evolutionary Synthesis Models
When evolutionary synthesis models take into account the stochastic nature of the IMF together with the discrete number of stars in real stellar clusters...

Confirmation of Halo Substructure using Quest RR Lyrae Data: The New Virgo Stellar Stream (VSS)
Spectroscopic observations have been obtained of eighteen RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) belonging to the ``12.4 hr clump'', a prominent halo overdensity in the QUEST...
We confirm the nova nature of the possible nova M31 2009-08d, discovered by Rafael Ferrando on UT 2009 Aug 15.0950 (discovery image at http://www.pla-de...
Confirmation of the NIR counterparts to SLX 1746-331 and XTE J1810-189
We present infrared observations of the counterparts to the X- ray transients SLX 1746-331 and XTE J1810-189 obtained with the 6.5m Magellan Baade telescope at...
Confirming the Metal-Rich Nature of Stars with Giant Planets
With the goal of confirming the metallicity ``excess'' observed in stars with planetary mass companions, we have conducted a high-precision spectroscopic study...
Confirming Water Ice on the Surface of Asteroid 24 Themis
We have confirmed the detection of a surprising, and so far unique, absorption feature on a main-belt asteroid, 24 Themis. Our 2 to 4 micron reflectance spectra...
