A data processing pipeline for the WINTER near-infrared surveyor using the framework

Viraj Karambelkar, Robert Stein, Danielle Frostig +18

We present the data reduction and transient detection pipeline for the Wide-field Infrared Transient Explorer (WINTER) surveyor and report its on-sky performance. The WINTER camera…

The Carbon Giant Population Revealed by Gaia DR3

Benjamin R. Roulston, Paul J. Green

Classical carbon stars (atmospheric C/O >1) are asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars that become carbon-rich through third dredge-up during the thermally pulsing AGB phase. However,…

A ZTF Search for Circumstellar Debris Transits in White Dwarfs: Six New Candidates, one with Gas Disk Emission, identified in a Novel Metric Space

Soumyadeep Bhattacharjee, Zachary P. Vanderbosch, Mark A. Hollands +13

White dwarfs (WDs) showing transits from orbiting planetary debris provide significant insights into the structure and dynamics of debris disks. This is a rare class of objects wit…

Carbon Stars From Gaia DR3 and the Space Density of Dwarf Carbon Stars

Benjamin R. Roulston, Naunet Leonhardes-Barboza, Paul J. Green +1

Carbon stars (with atmospheric C/O) range widely in temperature and luminosity, from low mass dwarfs to asymptotic giant branch stars (AGB). The main sequence dwarf carbon (dC)…

The fastest stars in the Galaxy

Kareem El-Badry, Ken J. Shen, Vedant Chandra +18

We report a spectroscopic search for hypervelocity white dwarfs (WDs) that are runaways from Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) and related thermonuclear explosions. Candidates are select…

Sodium enhancement in evolved cataclysmic variables

Natsuko Yamaguchi, Kareem El-Badry, Antonio C. Rodriguez +3

We present follow-up spectroscopy of 21 cataclysmic variables (CVs) with evolved secondaries and ongoing or recently-terminated mass transfer. Evolutionary models predict that the…
