LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…
High precision orbital and physical parameters of double-lined spectroscopic binary stars - HD78418, HD123999, HD160922, HD200077 and HD210027
M. Konacki, M. Muterspaugh, S. Kulkarni +1
We present high precision radial velocities (RVs) of double-lined spectroscopic binary stars HD78418, HD123999, HD160922, HD200077 and HD210027. They were obtained based on the hig…
Discovery of Radio Afterglow from the Most Distant Cosmic Explosion
Poonam Chandra, Dale A. Frail, Derek Fox +6
We report the discovery of radio afterglow emission from the gamma-ray burst GRB 090423, which exploded at a redshift of 8.3, making it the object with the highest known redshift i…
The Radial Velocity TATOOINE Search for Circumbinary Planets: Planet Detection Limits for a Sample of Double-lined Binary Stars - Initial Results from Keck I/Hires, Shane/CAT/Hamspec and TNG/Sarg Observations
Maciej Konacki, Matthew W. Muterspaugh, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni +1
We present preliminary results of the first and on-going radial velocity survey for circumbinary planets. With a novel radial velocity technique employing an iodine absorption cell…
Exploring the Optical Transient Sky with the Palomar Transient Factory
Arne Rau, Shrinivas R. Kulkarni, Nicholas M. Law +21
The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) is a wide-field experiment designed to investigate the optical transient and variable sky on time scales from minutes to years. PTF uses the CFH…
Astrometric Detection of Earthlike Planets
Michael Shao, Geoff Marcy, Joseph H. Catanzarite +12
Astrometry can detect rocky planets in a broad range of masses and orbital distances and measure their masses and three-dimensional orbital parameters, including eccentricity and i…
