Hunting the nature of IGR J17497-2821 with X-ray and NIR observations
A. Paizis, M. A. Nowak, S. Chaty +7
We report on a Chandra grating observation of the recently discovered hard X-ray transient IGR J17497-2821. The observation took place about two weeks after the source discovery at…
The Interstellar Medium of GRB Host Galaxies I. Echelle Spectra of Swift GRB Afterglows
J. X. Prochaska, H. -W. Chen, J. S. Bloom +8
We present optical echelle spectra of four gamma-ray burst (GRB) afterglows (GRB 050730, GRB 050820, GRB 051111, and GRB 060418) discovered during the first 1.5 years of operation…
The `666' collaboration on OGLE transits: I. Accurate radius of the planets OGLE-TR-10b and OGLE-TR-56b with VLT deconvolution photometry
Frederic Pont, Claire Moutou, Michael Gillon +14
Transiting planets are essential to study the structure and evolution of extra-solar planets. For that purpose, it is important to measure precisely the radius of these planets. He…
The Hyades stream: evaporated cluster or intrusion from the inner disk?
B. Famaey, F. Pont, X. Luri +3
The nature of the Hyades stream, or Hyades moving group, is a long-standing question of Galactic Astronomy. Is this stream caused by non-axisymmetric perturbations of the galactic…
A deconvolution-based algorithm for crowded field photometry with unknown Point Spread Function
P. Magain, F. Courbin, M. Gillon +4
A new method is presented for determining the Point Spread Function (PSF) of images that lack bright and isolated stars. It is based on the same principles as the MCS (Magain, Cour…
A fast hybrid algorithm for exoplanetary transit searches
A. Collier Cameron, D. Pollacco, R. A. Street +22
We present a fast and efficient hybrid algorithm for selecting exoplanetary candidates from wide-field transit surveys. Our method is based on the widely-used SysRem and Box Least-…
