Detached Post-Algol Eclipsing Binaries Caught Between Case A and Case AB Mass Transfer
Megan G. Frank, Maxwell Moe, Nathan Smith
For sixty years, stellar evolutionary models have predicted that intermediate-mass stars slightly contract on the terminal-age main-sequence (TAMS) as they exhaust hydrogen in thei…

Using GALEX UV Excess to Search for Metal-poor Halo Stars
Chase L. Smith, Maxwell Moe, Megan Frank +10
Metal-poor solar-type stars display a significant reduction in metal-line blanketing at short wavelengths, leading to an excess of near-ultraviolet (NUV) flux compared to their met…
