XO-2b: Transiting Hot Jupiter in a Metal-rich Common Proper Motion Binary
Christopher J. Burke, P. R. McCullough, Jeff A. Valenti +15
We report on a V=11.2 early K dwarf, XO-2 (GSC 03413-00005), that hosts a Rp=0.98+0.03/-0.01 Rjup, Mp=0.57+/-0.06 Mjup transiting extrasolar planet, XO-2b, with an orbital period o…
The host of GRB 030323 at z=3.372: a very high column density DLA system with a low metallicity
P. M. Vreeswijk, S. L. Ellison, C. Ledoux +29
We present photometry and spectroscopy of the afterglow of GRB 030323. VLT spectra of the afterglow show damped Lya (DLA) absorption and low- and high-ionization lines at a redshif…
Outburst and Post-Outburst Active Phase of the Black Hole X-ray Binary V4641 Sgr in 2002
M. Uemura, T. Kato, R. Ishioka +19
The black hole X-ray binary V4641 Sgr experienced an outburst in 2002 May which was detected at X-ray, optical, and radio wavelengths. The outburst lasted for only 6 days, but the…
In-the-Gap SU UMa-Type Dwarf Nova, Var73 Dra with a Supercycle of about 60 Days
D. Nogami, M. Uemura, R. Ishioka +13
An intensive photometric-observation campaign of the recently discovered SU UMa-type dwarf nova, Var73 Dra was conducted from 2002 August to 2003 February. We caught three superout…
Discovery and Photometric Observation of the Optical Counterpart in a Possible Galactic Halo X-ray Transient, XTE J1118+480
M. Uemura, T. Kato, K. Matsumoto +7
We discovered the optical counterpart about 13 mag of a soft X-ray transient, XTE J1118+480 on 2000 March 30. We perform astrometry and provide the accurate position as R.A. = 11h1…
