Improved Photometry for the DASCH Pipeline
Sumin Tang, Jonathan Grindlay, Edward Los +1
The Digital Access to a Sky Century@Harvard (DASCH) project is digitizing the ~500,000 glass plate images obtained (full sky) by the Harvard College Observatory from 1885-1992. Ast…
100-year DASCH Light Curves of Kepler Planet-Candidate Host Stars
Sumin Tang, Dimitar Sasselov, Jonathan Grindlay +2
We present 100 year light curves of Kepler planet-candidate host stars from the Digital Access to a Sky Century at Harvard (DASCH) project. 261 out of 997 host stars have at least…
DASCH 100-yr light curves of high-mass X-ray binaries
Mathieu Servillat, S. Tang, J. E. Grindlay +1
We analyzed the 100-yr light curves of Galactic high-mass X-ray binaries using the Harvard photographic plate collection, made accessible through the DASCH project (Digital Access…
Opening the 100-Year Window for Time Domain Astronomy
Jonathan Grindlay, Sumin Tang, Edward Los +1
The large-scale surveys such as PTF, CRTS and Pan-STARRS-1 that have emerged within the past 5 years or so employ digital databases and modern analysis tools to accentuate research…
DASCH on KU Cyg: a ~5 year dust accretion event in ~1900
Sumin Tang, Jonathan Grindlay, Edward Los +1
KU Cyg is an eclipsing binary consisting of a F-type star accreting through a large accretion disk from a K5III red giant. Here we present the discovery of a 5-yr dip around 1900 f…
Correcting the Astrometry of DASCH scanned plates
M. Servillat, E. J. Los, J. E. Grindlay +2
We describe the process implemented in the DASCH pipeline which applies a reliable astrometric correction to each scanned plate. Our first blind astrometric fit resolves the pointi…
