Spectroscopic and Photometric Periods of Six Ultracompact Accreting Binaries
Matthew J. Green, Thomas R. Marsh, Philip J. Carter +19
Ultracompact accreting binary systems each consist of a stellar remnant accreting helium-enriched material from a compact donor star. Such binaries include two related sub-classes,…
Searching for Electromagnetic Counterparts to Gravitational-wave Merger Events with the Prototype Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO-4)
B. P. Gompertz, R. Cutter, D. Steeghs +49
We report the results of optical follow-up observations of 29 gravitational-wave triggers during the first half of the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC) O3 run with the Gravitational-…
A pulsating white dwarf in an eclipsing binary
Steven G. Parsons, Alexander J. Brown, Stuart P. Littlefair +8
White dwarfs are the burnt out cores of Sun-like stars and are the final fate of 97% of all stars in our Galaxy. The internal structure and composition of white dwarfs are hidden b…
A telescope control and scheduling system for the Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer
Martin J Dyer
The detection of the first electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational-wave signal in August 2017 marked the start of a new era of multi-messenger astrophysics. An unprecedented…
The evolutionary status of Cataclysmic Variables: Eclipse modelling of 15 systems
M. McAllister, S. P. Littlefair, S. G. Parsons +13
We present measurements of the component masses in 15 Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) - 6 new estimates and 9 improved estimates. We provide new calibrations of the relationship betwee…
