Neptune's Dynamic Atmosphere from Kepler K2 Observations: Implications for Brown Dwarf Light Curve Analyses
Amy A. Simon, Jason F. Rowe, Patrick Gaulme +9
Observations of Neptune with the Kepler Space Telescope yield a 49-day light curve with 98% coverage at a 1-minute cadence. A significant signature in the light curve comes from di…
Stellar archaeology with Gaia: the Galactic white dwarf population
Boris Gaensicke, Pier-Emmanuel Tremblay, Martin Barstow +23
Gaia will identify several 1e5 white dwarfs, most of which will be in the solar neighborhood at distances of a few hundred parsecs. Ground-based optical follow-up spectroscopy of t…
Optical spectroscopy of candidate Alpha Persei white dwarfs
S. L. Casewell, P. D. Dobbie, S. Geier +2
As part of an investigation into the high mass end of the initial mass-final mass relation we performed a search for new white dwarf members of the nearby (172.4 pc), young (80-90…
Refining our knowledge of the white dwarf mass-radius relation
M. A. Barstow, H. E. Bond, M. R. Burleigh +4
The presence of a white dwarf in a resolved binary system, such as Sirius, provides an opportunity to combine dynamical information about the masses, from astrometry and spectrosco…
Hubble Space Telescope observations of the NUV transit of WASP-12b
J. D. Nichols, G. A. Wynn, M. Goad +6
We present new observations of four closely-spaced NUV transits of the hot Jupiter-like exoplanet WASP-12b using HST/COS, significantly increasing the phase resolution of the obser…
