Post-Outburst Radio Observations of the High Magnetic Field Pulsar PSR J1119-6127

Walid A. Majid, Aaron B. Pearlman, Tatyana Dobreva +4

We have carried out high frequency radio observations of the high magnetic field pulsar PSR J1119-6127 following its recent X-ray outburst. While initial observations showed no evi…

PTF1 J082340.04+081936.5: A hot subdwarf B star with a low mass white dwarf companion in an 87 minute orbit

Thomas Kupfer, Jan van Roestel, Jared Brooks +19

We present the discovery of the hot subdwarf B star (sdB) binary PTF1 J082340.04+081936.5. The system has an orbital period P min (0.060761584(10) days), ma…

A novel method for transient detection in high-cadence optical surveys: Its application for a systematic search for novae in M31

Monika D. Soraisam, Marat Gilfanov, Thomas Kupfer +6

[abridged] In large-scale time-domain surveys, the processing of data, from procurement up to the detection of sources, is generally automated. One of the main challenges is contam…

Small near-Earth asteroids in the Palomar Transient Factory survey: A real-time streak-detection system

Adam Waszczak, Thomas A. Prince, Russ Laher +7

Near-Earth asteroids (NEAs) in the 1-100 meter size range are estimated to be 1,000 times more numerous than the 15,000 currently-catalogued NEAs, most of which are in…

Large Super-Fast Rotator Hunting Using the Intermediate Palomar Transient Factory

Chan-Kao Chang, Hsing-Wen Lin, Wing-Huen Ip +5

In order to look for large super-fast rotators, five dedicated surveys covering ~ 188 square degree in the ecliptic plane have been carried out in R-band with ~10 min cadence using…
