Spectroscopic follow-up of compact object binary candidates from Gaia DR3: White dwarfs, neutron stars, black holes, and the parallax zeropoint
Kareem El-Badry, David W. Latham, Hans-Walter Rix +12
Astrometry and radial velocities (RVs) from Gaia DR3 yielded orbits for hundreds of thousands of binary systems, including several samples proposed to contain black holes (BHs), ne…
Radial and Rotational Velocities of a Volume-Complete Sample of M Dwarfs with Masses 0.1-0.3 Msun within 15 parsecs
Jennifer G. Winters, Emily K. Pass, David Charbonneau +7
We present the results from a five-year campaign to gather multi-epoch, high-resolution spectra of a volume-complete sample of 413 M dwarfs with masses 10-30% that of the Sun that…
Metallicities from High-Resolution TRES Spectra with uberMS: Performance Benchmarks and Literature Comparison
Emily K. Pass, Phillip A. Cargile, Victoria DiTomasso +7
As the field of exoplanetary astronomy has matured, demand has grown for precise stellar abundances to probe subtle correlations between stellar compositions and planetary demograp…
An Oasis in the Brown Dwarf Desert: Confirmation of Two Low-mass Transiting Brown Dwarfs Discovered by TESS
Elina Y. Zhang, Theron W. Carmichael, Daniel Huber +14
As the intermediate-mass siblings of stars and planets, brown dwarfs (BDs) are vital to study for a better understanding of how objects change across the planet-to-star mass range.…
WIYN Open Cluster Study. XC. Radial-velocity Measurements and Spectroscopic Binary Orbits in the Open Cluster NGC 2506
Evan Linck, Robert D. Mathieu, David W. Latham
NGC 2506 is a rich, intermediate-age (2.0 Gyr), metal-poor ([Fe/H] -0.2) open cluster. This work presents the results of 12,157 spectroscopic radial-velocity measurements of…
PTFO 8-8695: Two Stars, Two Signals, No Planet
L. G. Bouma, J. N. Winn, G. R. Ricker +13
PTFO 8-8695 (CVSO 30) is a star in the 7-10 million year old Orion-OB1a cluster that shows brightness dips that resemble planetary transits. Although strong evidence against the pl…
The asteroseismic potential of TESS: exoplanet-host stars
T. L. Campante, M. Schofield, J. S. Kuszlewicz +14
New insights on stellar evolution and stellar interiors physics are being made possible by asteroseismology. Throughout the course of the Kepler mission, asteroseismology has also…
Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI)
R. Neuhäuser, R. Errmann, A. Berndt +80
We present the Young Exoplanet Transit Initiative (YETI), in which we use several 0.2 to 2.6m telescopes around the world to monitor continuously young (< 100 Myr), nearby (< 1 kpc…
