Orbital Motion During Gravitational Lensing Events
Rosanne Di Stefano, Ann Esin
Gravitational lensing events provide unique opportunities to discover and study planetary systems and binaries. Here we build on previous work to explore the role that orbital moti…
Periodic Signals in Binary Microlensing Events
Xinyi Guo, Ann Esin, Rosanne Di Stefano +1
Gravitational microlensing events are powerful tools for the study of stellar populations. In particular, they can be used to discover and study a variety of binary systems. A larg…
Spitzer Space Telescope observations of magnetic cataclysmic variables: possibilities for the presence of dust in polars
C. S. Brinkworth, D. W. Hoard, S. Wachter +6
We present Spitzer Space Telescope photometry of six short-period polars, EF Eri, V347 Pav, VV Pup, V834 Cen, GG Leo, and MR Ser. We have combined the Spitzer Infrared Array Camera…
Simultaneous optical and X-ray high speed photometry of Cyg X-2
G. Dubus, B. Kern, A. A. Esin +2
The X-ray emission from X-ray binaries may originate in flares occurring when magnetic loops anchored in the disc reconnect. In analogy with our Sun, H alpha emission should arise…
Modeling the Low State Spectrum of the X-Ray Nova XTE J1118+480
A. A. Esin, J. E. McClintock, J. J. Drake +4
Based on recent multiwavelength observations of the new X-ray nova XTE J1118+480, we can place strong constraints on the geometry of the accretion flow in which a low/hard state sp…
On The Synchrotron Self-Compton Emission from Relativistic Shocks and Its Implications for Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows
Re'em Sari, Ann A. Esin
We consider the effects of inverse Compton scattering of synchrotron photons from relativistic electrons in GRB afterglows. We compute the spectrum of the inverse Compton emission…
