The First Post-Kepler Brightness Dips of KIC 8462852

Tabetha S. Boyajian, Roi Alonso, Alex Ammerman +203

We present a photometric detection of the first brightness dips of the unique variable star KIC 8462852 since the end of the Kepler space mission in 2013 May. Our regular photometr…

Non-grey dimming events of KIC 8462852 from GTC spectrophotometry

H. J. Deeg, R. Alonso, D. Nespral +1

We report ground-based spectrophotometry of KIC 8462852, during its first dimming events since the end of the Kepler mission. The dimmings show a clear colour-signature, and are de…

The Yale-Potsdam Stellar Isochrones (YaPSI)

F. Spada, P. Demarque, Y. -C. Kim +2

We introduce the Yale-Potsdam Stellar Isochrones (YaPSI), a new grid of stellar evolution tracks and isochrones of solar-scaled composition. In an effort to improve the Yonsei-Yale…

Planet Hunters X. KIC 8462852 - Where's the Flux?

T. S. Boyajian, D. M. LaCourse, S. A. Rappaport +46

Over the duration of the Kepler mission, KIC8462852 was observed to undergo irregularly shaped, aperiodic dips in flux of up to \%. The dipping activity can last for betwe…

The Expanding Fireball of Nova Delphini 2013

G. H. Schaefer, T. ten Brummelaar, D. R. Gies +34

A classical nova occurs when material accreting onto the surface of a white dwarf in a close binary system ignites in a thermonuclear runaway. Complex structures observed in the ej…
