A machine learned classifier for RR Lyrae in the VVV survey
Felipe Elorrieta, Susana Eyheramendy, Andrés Jordán +10
Variable stars of RR Lyrae type are a prime tool to obtain distances to old stellar populations in the Milky Way, and one of the main aims of the Vista Variables in the Via Lactea…
Maximizing Science in the Era of LSST: A Community-Based Study of Needed US Capabilities
Joan Najita, Beth Willman, Douglas P. Finkbeiner +48
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be a discovery machine for the astronomy and physics communities, revealing astrophysical phenomena from the Solar System to the out…
Status and performance of the Gemini Planet Imager adaptive optics system
Vanessa P. Bailey, Lisa A. Poyneer, Bruce A. Macintosh +14
The Gemini Planet Imager is a high-contrast near-infrared instrument specifically designed to image exoplanets and circumstellar disks over a narrow field of view. We use science d…
NEBULAR: A simple synthesis code for the hydrogen and helium nebular spectrum
Mischa Schirmer
NEBULAR is a lightweight code to synthesize the spectrum of an ideal, mixed hydrogen and helium gas in ionization equilibrium, over a useful range of densities, temperatures and wa…
Correction of distortion for optimal image stacking in Wide Field Adaptive Optics: Application to GeMS data
A. Bernard, L. M. Mugnier, B. Neichel +6
The advent of Wide Field Adaptive Optics (WFAO) systems marks the beginning of a new era in high spatial resolution imaging. The newly commissioned Gemini South Multi-Conjugate Ada…
