Constraining the Age-Activity Relation for Cool Stars: The SDSS DR5 Low-Mass Star Spectroscopic Sample
Andrew A. West, Suzanne L. Hawley, John J. Bochanski +5
We present a spectroscopic analysis of over 38,000 low-mass stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5). Analysis of this unprecedentedly large sample confi…
The ACS Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters. I. Overview and Clusters Without Previous HST Photometry
Ata Sarajedini, L. Bedin, B. Chaboyer +10
We present the first results of a large ACS Survey of Galactic globular clusters. This Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury project is designed to obtain photometry with S/N > ~10…
The Rotational Velocity of Helium-rich Pre-White Dwarfs
T. Rauch, S. Koeper, S. Dreizler +3
Previous investigations on hydrogen-rich white dwarfs generally yield only very small rotational velocities (v_rot sin i). We have analyzed line profiles in high-resolution optical…
Beyond M: Ultracool dwarfs in the Solar Neighbourhood
I. Neill Reid
I review the optical and near-infrared spectral characteristics of the extremely cool dwarfs grouped under the new classification of type L. These include both very low-mass stars…
A Keck/HST Survey for Companions to Low-Luminosity Dwarfs
D. W. Koerner, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, I. N. Reid +1
We present preliminary results of an imaging survey for companions to low-luminosity dwarfs with spectral types ranging from M7 to L9. A K-band study with the Near Infrared Camera…
Two nearby M dwarf binaries from 2MASS
J. E. Gizis, D. G. Monet, I. N. Reid +2
We report the discovery of two binary M dwarf systems in the immediate solar neighborhood using 2MASS. The first is an M6.5 companion to the nearby G star HD 86728 (Gl 376). The kn…
