Survey for Transiting Extrasolar Planets in Stellar Systems: III. A Limit on the Fraction of Stars with Planets in the Open Cluster NGC 1245

Christopher J. Burke, B. Scott Gaudi, D. L. DePoy +1

We analyze a 19-night photometric search for transiting extrasolar planets in the open cluster NGC 1245. An automated transit search algorithm with quantitative selection criteria…

Spatially-Resolved Narrow Line Region Kinematics in Active Galactic Nuclei

Melissa S. Rice, Paul Martini, Jenny E. Greene +4

We have analyzed HST spectroscopy of 24 nearby AGNs to investigate spatially-resolved gas kinematics in the Narrow Line Region (NLR). These observations effectively isolate the nuc…

The Disappearing Act of KH 15D: Photometric Results from 1995 to 2004

C. M. Hamilton, W. Herbst, F. J. Vrba +14

We present results from the most recent (2002-2004) observing campaigns of the eclipsing system KH 15D, in addition to re-reduced data obtained at Van Vleck Observatory (VVO) betwe…

Planetary Detection Efficiency of the Magnification 3000 Microlensing Event OGLE-2004-BLG-343

Subo Dong, D. L. DePoy, B. S. Gaudi +12

OGLE-2004-BLG-343 was a microlensing event with peak magnification A_{max}=3000+/-1100, by far the highest-magnification event ever analyzed and hence potentially extremely sensiti…

A Jovian-mass Planet in Microlensing Event OGLE-2005-BLG-071

A. Udalski, M. Jaroszynski, B. Paczynski +30

We report the discovery of a several-Jupiter mass planetary companion to the primary lens star in microlensing event OGLE-2005-BLG-071. Precise (<1%) photometry at the peak of the…

Multiwavelength Monitoring of the Dwarf Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC 4395. I. A Reverberation-Based Measurement of the Black Hole Mass

Bradley M. Peterson, Misty C. Bentz, Louis-Benoit Desroches +8

A reverberation-mapping program on NGC 4395, the least-luminous known Seyfert 1 galaxy, undertaken with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope, yiel…
