A Search for SS Cyg Outburst Predictors
A. Price, A. A. Henden, G. Foster +20
We report null results on a two year photometric search for outburst predictors in SS Cyg. Observations in Johnson V and Cousins I were obtained almost daily for multiple hours per…
Electrical Control of Optical Properties of Monolayer MoS
A. K. M. Newaz, D. Prasai, J. I. Ziegler +4
We investigate electrical gating of photoluminescence and optical absorption in monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS) configured in field effect transistor geometry. We observe…
The N2K Consortium. II. A Transiting Hot Saturn Around HD 149026 With a Large Dense Core
B. Sato, D. A. Fischer, G. W. Henry +18
Doppler measurements from Subaru and Keck have revealed radial velocity variations in the V=8.15, G0IV star HD 149026 consistent with a Saturn-Mass planet in a 2.8766 day orbit. Ph…
Joint Elastic Side-Scattering Lidar and Raman Lidar Measurements of Aerosol Optical Properties in South East Colorado
L. Wiencke, V. Rizi, M. Will +27
We describe an experiment, located in south-east Colorado, USA, that measured aerosol optical depth profiles using two Lidar techniques. Two independent detectors measured scattere…
Gleam: the GLAST Large Area Telescope Simulation Framework
P. Boinee, G. Cabras, A. De Angelis +28
This paper presents the simulation of the GLAST high energy gamma-ray telescope. The simulation package, written in C++, is based on the Geant4 toolkit, and it is integrated into a…
A Hot Saturn Planet Orbiting HD 88133, from the N2K Consortium
D. A. Fischer, G. Laughlin, R. P. Butler +20
The N2K consortium is carrying out a distributed observing campaign with the Keck, Magellan and Subaru telescopes, as well as the automatic photometric telescopes of Fairborn Obser…
