LSST Science Book, Version 2.0
LSST Science Collaboration, Paul A. Abell, Julius Allison +245
A survey that can cover the sky in optical bands over wide fields to faint magnitudes with a fast cadence will enable many of the exciting science opportunities of the next decade.…
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…
Bridging the Gap Between Stars and Planets: The Formation and Early Evolution of Brown Dwarfs
Subhanjoy Mohanty, Adam Burgasser, Gilles Chabrier +17
This White Paper, submitted to the National Academy of Sciences' Astro2010 Decadal Review Committee, focuses on 2 central themes in the study of young brown dwarfs -- their formati…
Circumstellar Environment and Effective Temperature of the Young Substellar Eclipsing Binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085
Subhanjoy Mohanty, Keivan G. Stassun, Robert D. Mathieu
We present new Spitzer IRAC/PU/MIPS photometry from 3.6 to 24 um, and new Gemini GMOS photometry at 0.48 um, of the young brown dwarf eclipsing binary 2MASS J05352184-0546085, loca…
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…
