Optical spectroscopy of candidate Alpha Persei white dwarfs

S. L. Casewell, P. D. Dobbie, S. Geier +2

As part of an investigation into the high mass end of the initial mass-final mass relation we performed a search for new white dwarf members of the nearby (172.4 pc), young (80-90…

An X-ray and UV flare from the galaxy XMMSL1 J061927.1-655311

R. D. Saxton, A. M. Read, S. Komossa +6

New high variability extragalactic sources may be identified by comparing the flux of sources seen in the XMM-Newton Slew Survey with detections and upper limits from the ROSAT All…

Red Giants in the Small Magellanic Cloud. II. Metallicity Gradient and Age-Metallicity Relation

P. D. Dobbie, A. A. Cole, A. Subramaniam +1

We present results from the largest CaII triplet line metallicity study of Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) field red giant stars to date, involving 3037 objects spread across approxim…

Red Giants in the Small Magellanic Cloud. I. Disk and Tidal Stream Kinematics

P. D. Dobbie, A. A. Cole, A. Subramaniam +1

We present results from an extensive spectroscopic survey of field stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). 3037 sources, predominantly first-ascent red giants, spread across rou…

Component masses of young, wide, non-magnetic white dwarf binaries in the SDSS DR7

R. B. Baxter, P. D. Dobbie, Q. A. Parker +7

We present a spectroscopic component analysis of 18 candidate young, wide, non-magnetic, double-degenerate binaries identified from a search of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Re…

Irradiated brown dwarfs

S. L. Casewell, M. R. Burleigh, K. A. Lawrie +3

We have observed the post common envelope binary WD0137-349 in the near infrared , and bands and have determined that the photometry varies on the system period (116 min…
