Spectroscopic distance, mass, and age estimations for APOGEE DR17
Alexander Stone-Martinez, Jon A. Holtzman, Julie Imig +3
We derive distances and masses of stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) Data Release 17 (DR17) using simple…
Investigating the low-flux states in six Intermediate Polars
Ava E. Covington, Aarran W. Shaw, Koji Mukai +30
We present optical photometry of six intermediate polars that exhibit transitions to a low-flux state. For four of these systems, DW Cnc, V515 And, V1223 Sgr and RX J2133.7+5107, w…
A Possible Alignment Between the Orbits of Planetary Systems and their Visual Binary Companions
Sam Christian, Andrew Vanderburg, Juliette Becker +111
Astronomers do not have a complete picture of the effects of wide-binary companions (semimajor axes greater than 100 AU) on the formation and evolution of exoplanets. We investigat…
Constraining the Evolution of Cataclysmic Variables via the Masses and Accretion Rates of their Underlying White Dwarfs
A. F. Pala, B. T. Gänsicke, D. Belloni +28
We report on the masses (), effective temperatures () and secular mean accretion rates () of 43 cataclysmic variable (CV) wh…
Optical Variability Correlated with X-ray Spectral Transition in the Black-Hole Transient ASASSN-18ey = MAXI J1820+070
Keito Niijima, Mariko Kimura, Yasuyuki Wakamatsu +49
How a black hole accretes matter and how this process is regulated are fundamental but unsolved questions in astrophysics. In transient black-hole binaries, a lot of mass stored in…
Populating the brown dwarf and stellar boundary: Five stars with transiting companions near the hydrogen-burning mass limit
Nolan Grieves, François Bouchy, Monika Lendl +52
We report the discovery of five transiting companions near the hydrogen-burning mass limit in close orbits around main sequence stars originally identified by the Transiting Exopla…
