The GEM (Galactic Emission Mapping) project is an international collaboration established with the aim of surveying the full sky at long wavelengths with a multi-frequency radio telescope. A total of 745 hours of observation at 408 MHz were completed from an Equatorial site in Colombia. The observations cover the celestial band $0^h < alpha < 24^h$, and $-24^{circ} 22^{prime} < delta < +35^{circ} 37^{prime}$. Preliminary results of this partial survey will be discussed. A review of the instrumental setup and a $sim 10^{circ}$ resolution sky map at 408 MHz is presented.

We present a partial-sky survey of the radio continuum at 2.3 GHz within the scope of the Galactic Emission Mapping (GEM) project, an observational program conceived and developed to reveal the large-scale properties of Galactic synchrotron radiation
through a set of self-consistent surveys of the radio continuum between 408 MHz and 10 GHz. The GEM experiment uses a portable and double-shielded 5.5-m radiotelescope in altazimuthal configuration to map 60-degree-wide declination bands from different observational sites by circularly scanning the sky at zenithal angles of 30 deg from a constantly rotating platform. The observations were accomplished with a total power receiver, whose front-end High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) amplifier was matched directly to a cylindrical horn at the prime focus of the parabolic reflector. The Moon was used to calibrate the antenna temperature scale and the preparation of the map required direct subtraction and destriping algorithms to remove ground contamination as the most significant source of systematic error. We used 484 hours of total intensity observations from two locations in Colombia and Brazil to yield 66% sky coverage from DEC = -51.73 deg to DEC = +34.78 deg. The zero-level uncertainty of the combined survey is 103 mK with a temperature scale error of 5% after direct correlation with the Rhodes/HartRAO survey at 2326 MHz on a T-T plot. The sky brightness distribution into regions of low and high emission in the GEM survey is consistent with the appearance of a transition region as seen in the Haslam 408 MHz and WMAP K-band surveys. Preliminary results also show that the temperature spectral index between 408 MHz and the 2.3 GHz band of the GEM survey has a weak spatial correlation with these regions; but it steepens significantly from high to low emission regions with respect to the WMAP K-band survey.
IceCube Collaboration Contributions to the 2009 International Cosmic Ray Conference
This list of contributions to the 37th International Cosmic Ray Conference in Berlin, Germany (12-23 July 2021) summarizes the latest results from the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. IceCube, completed 10 years ago at the geographic South Pole, compris
es a surface detector designed to observe cosmic ray air showers, a cubic-kilometer array of optical sensors deployed deep in the ice sheet to observe TeV-PeV neutrinos, and a 15 Megaton deep-ice subdetector sensitive to >10 GeV neutrinos. Data from IceCube are used to investigate a broad set of key questions in physics and astrophysics, such as the origins of galactic and extragalactic cosmic rays, the fundamental properties of neutrinos, and searches for physics beyond the Standard Model. The papers in this index are grouped topically to highlight IceCube contributions related to neutrino and multi-messenger astrophysics, cosmic-ray physics, fundamental physics, education and public outreach, and research and development for next-generation neutrino observatories. Contributions related to IceCube-Gen2, the future extension of IceCube, are available in a separate collection.
The International Gravitational Event Collaboration, IGEC, is a coordinated effort by research groups operating gravitational wave detectors working towards the detection of millisecond bursts of gravitational waves. Here we report on the current IGE
C resonant bar observatory, its data analysis procedures, the main properties of the first exchanged data set. Even though the available data set is not complete, in the years 1997 and 1998 up to four detectors were operating simultaneously. Preliminary results are mentioned.
Index entry listing the contributed papers of the MAGIC collaboration to the 31th International Cosmic Ray Conference (ICRC 2009), July 7-15 2009, Lodz, Poland. The individual papers are sorted by subject: Overview and Highlight Papers; MAGIC-II Stat
us and Components; Software and Analysis Techniques; Technical Developments; Scientific Results. This HTML document includes clickable links to the papers that exist on the astro-ph arXiv. We hope that this will make it easy to access the MAGIC contributions in a systematic way.
