A search for transiting companions in the J1407 (V1400 Cen) system

S. Barmentloo, C. Dik, M. A. Kenworthy +5

In 2007, the young star 1SWASP J140747.93-394542.6 (V1400 Cen) underwent a complex series of deep eclipses over 56 days. This was attributed to the transit of a ring system filling…

Rotation periods of TESS Objects of Interest from the Magellan-TESS Survey with multiband photometry from Evryscope and TESS

Ward S. Howard, Johanna Teske, Hank Corbett +8

Stellar RV jitter due to surface activity may bias the RV semi-amplitude and mass of rocky planets. The amplitude of the jitter may be estimated from the uncertainty in the rotatio…

Three K2 Campaigns Yield Rotation Periods for 1013 Stars in Praesepe

Rayna Rampalli, Marcel A. Agüeros, Jason L. Curtis +8

We use three campaigns of K2 observations to complete the census of rotation in low-mass members of the benchmark, 670-Myr-old open cluster Praesepe. We measure new rotati…

Characterizing Undetected Stellar Companions with Combined Datasets

Mackenna L. Wood, Andrew W. Mann, Adam L. Kraus

Binaries play a critical role in the formation, evolution, and fundamental properties of planets, stars, and stellar associations. Observational studies in these areas often includ…

Looking into the cradle of the grave: J22564-5910, a young post-merger hot subdwarf?

Joris Vos, Ingrid Pelisoli, Jan Budaj +10

We present the discovery of J22564-5910, a new type of hot subdwarf (sdB) which shows evidence of gas present in the system and has shallow, multi-peaked hydrogen and helium lines…

Wavelength Dependence of Activity-Induced Photometric Variations for Young Cool Stars in Hyades

Kohei Miyakawa, Teruyuki Hirano, Akihiko Fukui +3

We investigate photometric variations due to stellar activity which induce systematic radial-velocity errors (so-called "jitter") for the four targets in the Hyades open cluster ob…

Large Adaptive Optics Survey for Substellar Objects (LASSO) Around Young, Nearby, Low-mass Stars with Robo-AO

Maissa Salama, James Ou, Christoph Baranec +16

We present results from the Large Adaptive optics Survey for Substellar Objects (LASSO), where the goal is to directly image new substellar companions (<70 M) at wide orbit…
