The White Dwarf Luminosity Function from SDSS Imaging Data
Hugh C. Harris, Jeffrey A. Munn, Mukremin Kilic +16
A sample of white dwarfs is selected from SDSS DR3 imaging data using their reduced proper motions, based on improved proper motions from SDSS plus USNO-B combined data. Numerous S…
The Recently-Discovered Dwarf Nova System ASAS J002511+1217.2: A New WZ Sagittae Star
M. R. Templeton, R. Leaman, P. Szkody +19
The cataclysmic variable ASAS J002511+1217.2 was discovered in outburst by the All-Sky Automated Survey in September 2004, and intensively monitored by AAVSO observers through the…
XMM-Newton and optical follow-up observations of SDSS J093249.57+472523.0 and SDSS J102347.67+003841.2
Lee Homer, Paula Szkody, Bing Chen +5
We report follow-up XMM-Newton and ground-based optical observations of the unusual X-ray binary SDSS J102347.67+003841.2 (=FIRST J102347.6+003841), and a new candidate intermediat…
Deep Astrometric Standards (DAS) and Galactic Structure
I. Platais, R. F. G. Wyse, N. Zacharias
The advent of next-generation imaging telescopes such as LSST and Pan-STARRS has revitalized the need for deep and precise reference frames. The proposed weak-lensing observations…
Resolving the Effects of Rotation in Altair with Long-Baseline Interferometry
D. M. Peterson, C. A. Hummel, T. A. Pauls +7
We report successful fitting of a Roche model, with a surface temperature gradient following the von Zeipel gravity darkening law, to observations of Altair made with the Navy Prot…
The triple-mode pulsating variable V823 Cas
J. Jurcsik, B. Szeidl, M. Váradi +6
Based on extended multicolour CCD photometry of the triple-mode radial pulsator V823 Cas we studied the properties of the coupling frequencies invoked by nonlinear processes. Our r…
