Deep MMT Transit Survey of the Open Cluster M37 IV: Limit on the Fraction of Stars With Planets as Small as 0.3 R_J
J. D. Hartman, B. S. Gaudi, M. J. Holman +6
We present the results of a deep (15 ~< r ~< 23), 20 night survey for transiting planets in the intermediate age open cluster M37 (NGC 2099) using the Megacam wide-field mosaic CCD…
A Search for Transiting Hot Planets as Small as Neptune in the Open Cluster M37
J. D. Hartman, B. S. Gaudi, M. J. Holman +3
We are conducting a transit survey of the open cluster M37 using the Megacam instrument on the 6.5 m Multiple-Mirror Telescope. We have obtained ~4500 images of this cluster over 1…
Probing the Coevolution of Supermassive Black Holes and Galaxies Using Gravitationally Lensed Quasar Hosts
C. Y. Peng, C. D. Impey, H. -W. Rix +5
In the present-day universe, supermassive black hole masses (MBH) appear to be strongly correlated with their galaxy's bulge luminosity, among other properties. In this study, we e…
UBVRI Light Curves of 44 Type Ia Supernovae
Saurabh Jha, Robert P. Kirshner, Peter Challis +2
We present UBVRI photometry of 44 type-Ia supernovae (SN Ia) observed from 1997 to 2001 as part of a continuing monitoring campaign at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory of the…
Hectospec, the MMT's 300 Optical Fiber-Fed Spectrograph
Daniel Fabricant, Robert Fata, John Roll +6
The Hectospec is a 300 optical fiber fed spectrograph commissioned at the MMT in the spring of 2004. A pair of high-speed six-axis robots move the 300 fiber buttons between observi…
The Time Delays of Gravitational Lens HE0435-1223: An Early-Type Galaxy With a Rising Rotation Curve
C. S. Kochanek, N. D. Morgan, E. E. Falco +4
We present Hubble Space Telescope images and 2 years of optical photometry of the quadruple quasar HE0435-1223. The time delays between the intrinsic quasar variations are 14.4+/-0…
