On the Use of Field RR Lyrae as Galactic Probes. II. A new S calibration to estimate their metallicity
J. Crestani, M. Fabrizio, V. F. Braga +33
We performed the largest and most homogeneous spectroscopic survey of field RR Lyraes (RRLs). We secured 6,300 high resolution (HR, R35,000) spectra for 143 RRLs (11…
Follow-up Observations for IceCube-170922A: Detection of Rapid Near-Infrared Variability and Intensive Monitoring of TXS 0506+056
Tomoki Morokuma, Yousuke Utsumi, Kouji Ohta +35
We present our follow-up observations to search for an electromagnetic counterpart of the IceCube high-energy neutrino, IceCube-170922A. Monitoring observations of a likely counter…
Metallicity Distribution of Galactic Halo Field RR Lyrae, and the Effect of Metallicity on their Pulsation Properties
M. Marengo, J. P. Mullen, J. R. Neeley +14
We present our analysis of a large sample (over 150k) of candidate Galactic RR Lyrae (RRL) stars for which we derived high quality photometry at UV, optical and infrared wavelength…
On the Metamorphosis of the Bailey diagram for RR Lyrae stars
G. Bono, V. F. Braga, J. Crestani +37
We collected over 6000 high-resolution spectra of four dozen field RR Lyrae (RRL) variables pulsating either in the fundamental (39 RRab) or in the first overtone (9 RRc) mode. We…
Exploring the nature and synchronicity of early cluster formation in the Large Magellanic Cloud V: Multiple Populations in ancient Globular Clusters
Christina K. Gilligan, Brian Chaboyer, Jeffrey D. Cummings +9
We examine four ancient Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) globular clusters (GCs) for evidence of multiple stellar populations using the Advanced Camera for Surveys and Wide Field Camer…
