Searching for Ultracool Dwarfs in Early LSST Data Products
Easton J. Honaker, John E. Gizis, Christian Aganze +8
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory's Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) promises to drastically accelerate the discovery of ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) over the course of its 10-year su…
First Temperature Profile of a Stellar Flare using Differential Chromatic Refraction
Riley Clarke, Federica Bianco, James R. A. Davenport +5
We present the first derivation of a stellar flare temperature profile from single-band photometry. Stellar flare DWF030225.574-545707.45129 was detected in 2015 by the Dark Energy…
Every Datapoint Counts: Stellar Flares as a Case Study of Atmosphere Aided Studies of Transients in the LSST Era
Riley W. Clarke, James R. A. Davenport, John Gizis +8
Due to their short timescale, stellar flares are a challenging target for the most modern synoptic sky surveys. The upcoming Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST), a…
Deep Drilling in the Time Domain with DECam: Survey Characterization
Melissa L. Graham, Robert A. Knop, Thomas Kennedy +41
This paper presents a new optical imaging survey of four deep drilling fields (DDFs), two Galactic and two extragalactic, with the Dark Energy Camera (DECam) on the 4 meter Blanco…
Rubin Observatory LSST Transients and Variable Stars Roadmap
Kelly M. Hambleton, Federica B. Bianco, Rachel Street +79
The Vera C. Rubin Legacy Survey of Space and Time holds the potential to revolutionize time domain astrophysics, reaching completely unexplored areas of the Universe and mapping va…
Toward automated detection of light echoes in synoptic surveys: considerations on the application of the Deep Convolutional Neural Networks
Xiaolong Li, Federica B. Bianco, Gregory Dobler +7
Light Echoes (LEs) are the reflections of astrophysical transients off of interstellar dust. They are fascinating astronomical phenomena that enable studies of the scattering dust…
The Evolution of Flare Activity with Stellar Age
James R. A. Davenport, Kevin R. Covey, Riley W. Clarke +3
Using a recent census of flare stars from the Kepler survey, we have explored how flare activity evolves across stellar main sequence lifetimes. We utilize a sample of 347 stars wi…
The GALEX View of "Boyajian's Star" (KIC 8462852)
James. R. A. Davenport, Kevin R. Covey, Riley W. Clarke +12
The enigmatic star KIC 8462852, informally known as "Boyajian's Star", has exhibited unexplained variability from both short timescale (days) dimming events, and years-long fading…
Flare Activity of Wide Binary Stars with Kepler
Riley W. Clarke, James R. A. Davenport, Kevin R. Covey +1
We present an analysis of flare activity in wide binary stars using a combination of value-added data sets from the NASA Kepler mission. The target list contains a set of previousl…
