Variables in S-PLUS: I. Multiband period-luminosity relations and reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds using classical Cepheids

Debasish Hazarika, Carlos E. Ferreira Lopes, Márcio Catelan +12

Aims. Classical Cepheids (CCs) are fundamental standard candles for the extragalactic distance scale through their period-luminosity (P-L) relations. Although well calibrated in br…

A 500 pc volume-limited sample of hot subluminous stars II. Atmospheric parameters, mass distribution, and kinematics

H. Dawson, M. Dorsch, S. Geier +30

We present a quantitative spectroscopic and kinematic analysis of a volume-complete sample of hot subluminous stars within 500 pc of the Sun, assembled using accurate parallax meas…

Rapid stellar and binary population synthesis with COMPAS: methods paper II

Ilya Mandel, Jeff Riley, Adam Boesky +13

The COMPAS public rapid binary population synthesis code has undergone a number of key improvements since the original COMPAS methods paper (Team COMPAS: Riley et al., 2022) was pu…

Testing stellar yield prescriptions in OMEGA+: Implications for rising sodium abundances in young thick disc stars

Evans K. Owusu, Ashley J. Ruiter, Alex J. Kemp +8

We recently identified an upturn in [Na/Fe] for the population of Solar-type stars in the Galactic young thick disc () at super-Solar metallicity in…

Population synthesis of hot subdwarf B stars with COMPAS: on the observed Galactic population

Nicolás Rodríguez-Segovia, Ashley J. Ruiter

Hot subdwarf B stars (sdBs) are helium-burning stars with thin hydrogen-rich envelopes. Their most widely accepted formation channels involve binary evolution and progenitors near…

High-cadence stellar variability studies of RR Lyrae stars with DECam: New multi-band templates

K. Baeza-Villagra, N. Rodriguez-Segovia, M. Catelan +6

We present the most extensive set to date of high-quality RR Lyrae light curve templates in the griz bands, based on time-series observations of the Dark Energy Camera Plane Survey…

Population synthesis of hot-subdwarf B stars with COMPAS: parameter variations and a prescription for hydrogen-rich shells

Nicolás Rodríguez-Segovia, Ashley J. Ruiter, Ivo R. Seitenzahl

Subdwarf B stars are a well-known class of hot, low-mass stars thought to be formed through interactions in stellar binary systems. While different formation channels for subdwarf…

At the same age, metallicity, and alpha-enhancement, sodium is a more effective tracer of the young and old sequences of the Milky Way disc

Evans K. Owusu, Sven Buder, Ashley J. Ruiter +2

Trends in the enrichment of elements with stellar ages are a powerful avenue to identify unexplained origins of the elements. We investigate the stellar abundance trends of low to…

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…

Period Change Rates of Large Magellanic Cloud Cepheids using MESA

F. Espinoza-Arancibia, M. Catelan, G. Hajdu +8

Pulsating stars, such as Cepheids and RR Lyrae, offer us a window to measure and study changes due to stellar evolution. In this work, we study the former by calculating a set of e…

Period Change Rates in Large Magellanic Cloud Cepheids Revisited

N. Rodríguez-Segovia, G. Hajdu, M. Catelan +10

The period-change rate (PCR) of pulsating variable stars is a useful probe of changes in their interior structure, and thus of their evolutionary stages. So far, the PCRs of Classi…
