Optimal Photon Counting with Fast, Low Noise Astronomical Imagers
Jack T. Dinsmore, Christopher Layden, Roger W. Romani +9
Measuring rapid astrophysical phenomena requires many short exposures, which suffer from repeated read noise. A variety of recent technologies are achieving sub-electron read noise…
Discovery of over a thousand variable stars in Terzan 5 and Liller 1 with JWST
Kevin B. Burdge, Ilaria Caiazzo, Malina M. Desai +18
The Bulge Fossil Fragments Terzan 5 and Liller 1 host some of the densest stellar environments in the Galaxy, yet their variable star populations have remained largely unexplored d…
The Lightspeed project: high-speed, ultra-low read noise imaging and polarimetry for the Magellan telescopes
Christopher Layden, Kevin Burdge, John J. Piotrowski +12
Lightspeed will be an ultra-fast (> kHz), ultra-low read noise, multicolor (ugriz + IR) imager for the 6.5 meter Magellan Clay telescope. In a single-channel configuration, Lightsp…
X-ray Spectral-Timing Properties of Tidal Disruption Events
Joheen Chakraborty, Megan Masterson, Andrew Mummery +4
We perform the first systematic study of the minute-to-hours-timescale stochastic variability observed in the X-ray luminosity of tidal disruption events (TDEs) using XMM-Newton da…
Disk-to-Corona State Transition and Extreme X-ray Variability in the Tidal Disruption Event AT2019teq
Vera Berger, Erin Kara, Joheen Chakraborty +2
We present a five-year X-ray spectral and timing analysis of the optically selected Tidal Disruption Event (TDE) AT2019teq, which displays extreme variability, including order-of-m…
