The M4 Transition: Toward a comprehensive understanding of the transition into the fully convective regime
Keivan G. Stassun, Leslie Hebb, Kevin Covey +7
The difference in stellar structure above and below spectral type ~M4 is expected to be a very important one, connected directly or indirectly to a variety of observational phenome…
Near-Infrared Light Curves of the Brown Dwarf Eclipsing Binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085: Can Spots Explain the Temperature Reversal?
Y. Gómez Maqueo Chew, K. G. Stassun, A. Prsa +1
We present the JHKs light curves for the double-lined eclipsing binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085, in which both components are brown dwarfs. We analyze these light curves with the pu…
The Impact of the Astro2010 Recommendations on Variable Star Science
Lucianne M. Walkowicz, Andrew C. Becker, Scott F. Anderson +13
The next decade of survey astronomy has the potential to transform our knowledge of variable stars. Stellar variability underpins our knowledge of the cosmological distance ladder,…
Eclipsing Binary Stars as Tests of Stellar Evolutionary Models and Stellar Ages
Keivan G. Stassun, Leslie Hebb, Mercedes Lopez-Morales +1
Eclipsing binary stars provide highly accurate measurements of the fundamental physical properties of stars. They therefore serve as stringent tests of the predictions of evolution…
