Astro2020: Promoting Diversity and Inclusion in Astronomy Graduate Education: an Astro2020 APC White Paper by the AAS Taskforce on Diversity and Inclusion in Astronomy Graduate Education
Alexander Rudolph, Gibor Basri, Marcel Agüeros +8
The purpose of this white paper is to provide guidance to funding agencies, leaders in the discipline, and its constituent departments about strategies for (1) improving access to…
Double-Dipping: A New Relation between Stellar Rotation and Starspot Activity
Gibor Basri, Hieu T. Nguyen
We report the discovery of a new relationship between a simple morphological characteristic of light curves produced by starspots and stellar rotation periods. The characteristic w…
Galactoseismology: Discovery of a cluster of receding, variable halo stars
Sukanya Chakrabarti, Rodolfo Angeloni, Kenneth Freeman +13
A dynamical characterization of dark matter dominated dwarf galaxies from their observed effects on galactic disks (i.e. Galactoseismology) has remained an elusive goal. Here, we p…
A First Look at Rotation in Inactive Late-Type M Dwarfs
Andrew A. West, Gibor Basri
We have examined the relationship between rotation and activity in 14 late-type (M6-M7) M dwarfs, using high resolution spectra taken at the W.M. Keck Observatory and flux-calibrat…
Rotation and Activity in Late-type M Dwarfs
Andrew A. West, Gibor Basri
We have examined the relationship between rotation and activity in 14 late-type (M6-M7) M dwarfs, using high resolution spectra taken at the Keck Observatory and flux-calibrated sp…
Observational Clues to Brown Dwarf Origins
Ray Jayawardhana, Subhanjoy Mohanty, Gibor Basri +3
Over the past year, we have conducted a multi-faceted program to investigate the origin and early evolution of brown dwarfs. Using high-resolution Keck optical spectra of ~30 objec…
