Tidal Dissipation from Circularization in Kepler Binaries
Joshua Schussler, Torsha Majumder, Kaloyan Penev
Understanding tidal dissipation is a requisite step for explaining the evolution of systems such as short-period binaries. This understanding has not yet been achieved, and in fact…
Tools for High Precision Photometry from Wide-Field Color Images
Kaloyan Penev, Angel Romero, S. Javad Jafarzadeh +3
We present AstroWISP: a collection of image processing tools for source extraction, background determination, point spread function/pixel response function fitting, and aperture ph…
AutoWISP: Automated Processing of Wide-Field Color Images
Angel E. Romero, Kaloyan Penev, S. Javad Jafarzadeh +3
We have developed a software pipeline, AutoWISP, for extracting high-precision photometry from citizen scientists' observations made with consumer-grade color digital cameras (digi…
Main-sequence exoplanet systems: tidal evolution
Kaloyan Penev
The easiest exoplanets to detect are those that orbit very close to their hoststars. As a result, even though these planets are quite rare, they represent amajor fraction of the cu…
Dissipation Efficiency in Turbulent Convective Zones in Low Mass Stars
Kaloyan Penev, Dimitar Sasselov, Frank Robinson +1
We extend the analysis of Penev et al. (2007) to calculate effective viscosities for the surface convective zones of three main sequence stars of 0.775Msun, 0.85Msun and the presen…
