Lessons for WFIRST CGI from ground-based high-contrast systems
Vanessa P. Bailey, Michael Bottom, Eric Cady +26
The Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) for NASA's Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) will constitute a dramatic step forward for high-contrast imaging, integral field spectros…
HAT-P-7b: An Extremely Hot Massive Planet Transiting a Bright Star in the Kepler Field
A. Pal, G. A. Bakos, G. Torres +14
We report on the latest discovery of the HATNet project; a very hot giant planet orbiting a bright (V = 10.5) star with a small semi-major axis of a = 0.0377 +/- 0.0005 AU. Ephemer…
Stellar SEDs from 0.3-2.5 Microns: Tracing the Stellar Locus and Searching for Color Outliers in SDSS and 2MASS
Kevin R. Covey, Zeljko Ivezic, David J. Schlegel +15
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) are rich resources for studying stellar astrophysics and the structure and formation history of the Galaxy…
Four New Delta Scuti Pulsators from a Variability Survey of 131 Stars
J. L. Sokoloski, Lars Bildsten, R. Chornock +1
In a photometric variability survey of 131 stars with B < 14 mag, we have found four new Delta Scuti stars. We were sensitive to oscillation amplitudes as low as a few mmag. The de…
The effect of stellar evolution upon Population II Contact Binaries in the Period-Color Relation. I. Equal-Mass, Marginal Contact Systems
Eric P. Rubenstein
Field W UMa binaries observe a well known Period-Color Relation such that systems containing more massive stars are bluer and have longer orbital periods than those systems with lo…
Spectropolarimetry of the Luminous Narrow-Line Seyfert Galaxies IRAS 20181-2244 and IRAS 13224-3809
Laura E. Kay, A. M. Magalhaes, F. Elizalde +1
We observed the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies IRAS 20181-2244 and IRAS 13324-3809 with a new spectropolarimeter on the RC spectrograph at the CTIO 4m telescope. Previously it had…
