EarthFinder Probe Mission Concept Study: Characterizing nearby stellar exoplanet systems with Earth-mass analogs for future direct imaging
Peter Plavchan, Gautam Vasisht, Chas Beichman +52
EarthFinder is a NASA Astrophysics Probe mission concept selected for study as input to the 2020 Astrophysics National Academies Decadal Survey. The EarthFinder concept is based on…
GRBs as Probes of the Early Universe with TSO
Nial Tanvir, Jonathan Grindlay, Edo Berger +12
Long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are the most luminous known electromagnetic radiation sources in the Universe for the 3 to 300 sec of their prompt flashes (isotropic X/ gamma-ray lumi…
Big Science with a nUV-MidIR Rapid-Response 1.3m telescope at L2
Jonathan Grindlay, Edo Berger, Brian Metzger +12
Time-domain Astrophysics (TDA), a foundation of Astronomy, has become a major part of current and projected (2020s) astrophysics. While much has been derived from temporal measures…
Kilonovae: nUV/Optical/IR Counterparts of Neutron Star Binary Mergers with TSO
Brian D. Metzger, Edo Berger, Jonathan Grindlay +12
With the epochal first detection of gravitational waves from a binary neutron star (NS) merger with the GW170817 event, and its direct confirmation that NS-NS mergers are significa…
Mapping the Inner Structure of Quasars with Time-Domain Spectroscopy
Yue Shen, Scott Anderson, Edo Berger +40
The ubiquitous variability of quasars across a wide range of wavelengths and timescales encodes critical information about the structure and dynamics of the circumnuclear emitting…
