NGTS clusters survey IV. Search for Dipper stars in the Orion Nebular Cluster
Tyler Moulton, Simon T Hodgkin, Gareth D Smith +13
The dipper is a novel class of young stellar object associated with large drops in flux on the order of 10 to 50 per cent lasting for hours to days. Too significant to arise from i…
Periodic stellar variability from almost a million NGTS light curves
Joshua T. Briegal, Edward Gillen, Didier Queloz +25
We analyse 829,481 stars from the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) to extract variability periods. We utilise a generalisation of the autocorrelation function (the G-ACF), whi…
TIC-320687387 B: a long-period eclipsing M-dwarf close to the hydrogen burning limit
Samuel Gill, Solene Ulmer-Moll, Peter J. Wheatley +26
We are using precise radial velocities from CORALIE together with precision photometry from the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) to follow up stars with single-transit events…
NGTS clusters survey -- III: A low-mass eclipsing binary in the Blanco 1 open cluster spanning the fully convective boundary
Gareth D. Smith, Edward Gillen, Didier Queloz +27
We present the discovery and characterisation of an eclipsing binary identified by the Next Generation Transit Survey in the 115 Myr old Blanco 1 open cluster. NGTS J0002-29…
Stellar flares detected with the Next Generation Transit Survey
James A. G. Jackman, Peter J. Wheatley, Jack S. Acton +19
We present the results of a search for stellar flares in the first data release from the Next Generation Transit Survey (NGTS). We have found 610 flares from 339 stars, with spectr…
An eclipsing M-dwarf close to the hydrogen burning limit from NGTS
Jack S. Acton, Michael R. Goad, Sarah L. Casewell +20
We present the discovery of NGTS J0930-18, an extreme mass ratio eclipsing M-dwarf binary system with an early M-dwarf primary and a late M-dwarf secondary close to the hydrogen bu…
