Variability of Young Massive Stars in the Arches Cluster: Accurate Photometry with Adaptive Optics

K. Markakis, A. Z. Bonanos, G. Pietrzynski +2

We present preliminary results of the first near-infrared variability study of the Arches cluster, using adaptive optics data from NIRI/Gemini and NACO/VLT. The goal is to discover…

Detecting Transits of Planetary Companions to Giant Stars

R. J. Assef, B. S. Gaudi, K. Z. Stanek

Of the approximately 350 extrasolar planets currently known, of order 10% orbit evolved stars with radii R >~ 2.5 R_sun. These planets are of particular interest because they tend…

Deep MMT Transit Survey of the Open Cluster M37 III: Stellar Rotation at 550 Myr

J. D. Hartman, B. S. Gaudi, M. H. Pinsonneault +6

In the course of conducting a deep (14.5 ~< r ~< 23), 20 night survey for transiting planets in the rich ~550 Myr old open cluster M37 we have measured the rotation periods of 575…

The First DIRECT Distance Determination to a Detached Eclipsing Binary in M33

A. Z. Bonanos, K. Z. Stanek, R. P. Kudritzki +12

We present the first direct distance determination to a detached eclipsing binary in M33, which was found by the DIRECT Project. Located in the OB 66 association at coordinates (al…
