The DECam Minute Cadence Survey II: 49 Variables but No Planetary Transits of a White Dwarf
Kyra Dame, Claudia Belardi, Mukremin Kilic +4
We present minute cadence photometry of 31732 point sources observed in one 3 DECam pointing centred at RA = 09:03:02 and Dec = -04:35:00 over eight consecutive half-nigh…
The Age of the Galactic Stellar Halo from Gaia White Dwarfs
Mukremin Kilic, P. Bergeron, Kyra Dame +3
We use 156 044 white dwarf candidates with significant parallax measurements from the Gaia mission to measure the velocity dispersion of the Galactic disc; $(σ_U,σ_V,σ_W)…
A Deep Proper Motion Catalog Within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Footprint. II. The White Dwarf Luminosity Function
Jeffrey A. Munn, Hugh C. Harris, Ted von Hippel +8
A catalog of 8472 white dwarf (WD) candidates is presented, selected using reduced proper motions from the deep proper motion catalog of Munn et al. 2014. Candidates are selected i…
New Halo White Dwarf Candidates in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
Kyra Dame, A. Gianninas, Mukremin Kilic +5
We present optical spectroscopy and near-infrared photometry of 57 faint () high proper motion white dwarfs identified through repeat imaging of square degr…
RR Lyrae in the LMC: Insights Into the Oosterhoff Phenomenon
Charles A Kuehn, Horace A. Smith, Marcio Catelan +8
Although more than eight decades have passed since P. Th. Oosterhoff drew attention to differences in the properties of RR Lyrae variables in globular clusters, the origin and sign…
Variable Stars in Large Magellanic Cloud Globular Clusters III: Reticulum
Charles A. Kuehn, Kyra Dame, Horace A. Smith +8
This is the third in a series of papers studying the variable stars in old globular clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The primary goal of this series is to look at how the ch…
