THOR and HAMRR
Sean K. Terry, Jay Anderson
We present the Terry Hubble Observations of Roman (THOR) data reduction pipeline and Hubble Advanced Mining Routine for Roman (HAMRR). THOR is designed to reduce HST Wide-field Cam…
An HST Wide Field Survey of the Galactic Bulge: Overview, Strategy, and First Results
Sean K. Terry, Jay Anderson, Charles A. Beichman +13
We present an HST imaging survey of a 1.1 sq. degree sky area toward the Milky Way Galactic Bulge. This field significantly overlaps with the upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Galactic Bu…
Technique-agnostic exoplanet demography for the Roman era -- I. Testing a demography retrieval framework using simulated Kepler-like transit datasets
Akshay Priyadarshi, Eamonn Kerins, Michael D. Albrow +41
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) will unveil for the first time the full architecture of planetary systems across Galactic distances through the discovery of up to 200…
IRS 9: The Case for a Dynamically-Ejected Star from the Galactic Center
Matthew Hosek, Tuan Do, Smadar Naoz +7
Measuring stellar motions at the Milky Way's Galactic center (GC) provides unique insight into the dynamical processes within galactic nuclei. We present proper motion measurements…
Predictions of the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Galactic Exoplanet Survey. V. Detection Rates of Multiplanetary Systems in High Magnification Microlensing Events
Vito Saggese, Ãtienne Bachelet, Sebastiano Calchi Novati +34
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will expand the reach of gravitational microlensing surveys by increasing the number of events monitored and the precision of their light curv…
Structure and Dynamics of the Young Massive Star Cluster Westerlund 1
Lingfeng Wei, Matthew W. Hosek, Jessica R. Lu +8
We present a structural analysis of the young massive star cluster Westerlund 1 (Wd 1). With multi-epoch Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations, we measure the proper motions of…
