A new upper limit on the reflected starlight from Tau Bootis b
C. Leigh, A. Collier Cameron, K. Horne +2
Using improved doppler tomographic signal-analysis techniques we have carried out a deep search for starlight reflected from the giant planet orbiting the star Tau Bootis. We combi…
Wide-Field Lensing Mass Maps from DES Science Verification Data: Methodology and Detailed Analysis
V. Vikram, C. Chang, B. Jain +91
Weak gravitational lensing allows one to reconstruct the spatial distribution of the projected mass density across the sky. These "mass maps" provide a powerful tool for studying c…
Periodic Eclipses of the Young Star PDS 110 Discovered with WASP and KELT Photometry
H. P. Osborn, J. E. Rodriguez, M. A. Kenworthy +28
We report the discovery of eclipses by circumstellar disc material associated with the young star PDS 110 in the Ori OB1a association using the SuperWASP and KELT surveys. PDS 110…
Young Stellar Object Variability (YSOVAR): Long Timescale Variations in the Mid-Infrared
L. M. Rebull, A. M. Cody, K. R. Covey +32
The YSOVAR (Young Stellar Object VARiability) Spitzer Space Telescope observing program obtained the first extensive mid-infrared (3.6 & 4.5 um) time-series photometry of the Orion…
Trumpeting M Dwarfs with CONCH-SHELL: a Catalog of Nearby Cool Host-Stars for Habitable ExopLanets and Life
E. Gaidos, A. W. Mann, S. Lepine +6
We present an all-sky catalog of 2970 nearby ( pc), bright () M- or late K-type dwarf stars, 86% of which have been confirmed by spectroscopy. This catalog wil…
OzDES multi-fibre spectroscopy for the Dark Energy Survey: first-year operation and results
Fang Yuan, C. Lidman, T. M. Davis +99
OzDES is a five-year, 100-night, spectroscopic survey on the Anglo-Australian Telescope, whose primary aim is to measure redshifts of approximately 2,500 Type Ia supernovae host ga…
