Supernova (SN) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt) is the first spectroscopically-confirmed type Ia supernova (SN Ia) observed in the field. The data revealed an excess emission…
The EDIBLES survey IV. Cosmic ray ionization rates in diffuse clouds from near-ultraviolet observations of interstellar OH
Xavier L. Bacalla, Harold Linnartz, Nick L. J. Cox +6
We report cosmic ray ionization rates towards ten reddened stars studied within the framework of the EDIBLES (ESO Diffuse Interstellar Bands Large Exploration Survey) program, usin…
Scientific Domain Knowledge Improves Exoplanet Transit Classification with Deep Learning
Megan Ansdell, Yani Ioannou, Hugh P. Osborn +5
Space-based missions such as Kepler, and soon TESS, provide large datasets that must be analyzed efficiently and systematically. Recent work by Shallue & Vanderburg (2018) successf…
Kinematic links and the co-evolution of MHD winds, jets, and inner disks from a high-resolution optical [OI] survey
Andrea Banzatti, Ilaria Pascucci, Suzan Edwards +3
We present a survey of optical [OI] emission at 6300 Å toward 65 TTauri stars at the spectral resolution of km/s. Past work identified a highly blueshifted velocity compone…
HD2685 b: A Hot-Jupiter orbiting an early F-type star detected by TESS
M. I. Jones, R. Brahm, N. Espinoza +40
We report on the confirmation of a transiting giant planet around the relatively hot (Teff = 6801 56 K) star HD2685, whose transit signal was detected in Sector 1 data of the…
Maximum Angular Separation Epochs for Exoplanet Imaging Observations
Stephen R. Kane, Tiffany Meshkat, Margaret C. Turnbull
Direct imaging of exoplanets presents both significant challenges and significant gains. The advantages primarily lie in receiving emitted and, with future instruments, reflected p…
Predicted Yield of Transits of Known Radial Velocity Exoplanets from the TESS Primary and Extended Missions
Paul A. Dalba, Stephen R. Kane, Thomas Barclay +5
Radial velocity (RV) surveys have detected hundreds of exoplanets through their gravitational interactions with their host stars. Some will be transiting, but most lack sufficient…
