Flight masks of the Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument
A. J. Eldorado Riggs, Vanessa P. Bailey, Dwight Moody +25
Over the past two decades, thousands of confirmed exoplanets have been detected. The next major challenge is to characterize these other worlds and their stellar systems. Much info…
Accurate Ground-based Near-Earth-Asteroid Astrometry using Synthetic Tracking
Chengxing Zhai, Michael Shao, Navtej S. Saini +13
Accurate astrometry is crucial for determining orbits of near-Earth-asteroids (NEAs) and therefore better tracking them. This paper reports on a demonstration of 10 milliarcsecond-…
CHIMERA: a wide-field, multi-color, high-speed photometer at the prime focus of the Hale telescope
Leon K. Harding, Gregg Hallinan, Jennifer Milburn +7
The Caltech HIgh-speed Multi-color camERA (CHIMERA) is a new instrument that has been developed for use at the prime focus of the Hale 200-inch telescope. Simultaneous optical imag…
Demonstration of a Near-IR Laser Comb for Precision Radial Velocity Measurements in Astronomy
X. Yi, K. Vahala, S. Diddams +14
We describe a successful effort to produce a laser comb around 1.55 m in the astronomical H band using a method based on a line-referenced, electro-optical-modulation frequency…
Detection of a faint fast-moving near-Earth asteroid using synthetic tracking technique
Chengxing Zhai, Michael Shao, Bijan Nemati +6
We report a detection of a faint near-Earth asteroid (NEA), which was done using our synthetic tracking technique and the CHIMERA instrument on the Palomar 200-inch telescope. This…
Finding Very Small Near-Earth Asteroids using Synthetic Tracking
Michael Shao, Bijan Nemati, Chengxing Zhai +4
We present an approach that significantly increases the sensitivity for finding and tracking small and fast near Earth asteroids (NEA's). This approach relies on a combined use of…
Parallax of PSR J1744-1134 and the Local Interstellar Medium
M. Toscano, M. C. Britton, R. N. Manchester +4
We present the annual trigonometric parallax of PSR J1744-1134 derived from an analysis of pulse times of arrival. The measured parallax, pi = 2.8+/-0.3 mas ranks among the most pr…
Millisecond Pulsar Velocities
M. Toscano, J. S. Sandhu, M. Bailes +5
We present improved timing parameters for 13 millisecond pulsars (MSPs) including 9 new proper motion measurements. These new proper motions bring to 23 the number of MSPs with mea…
Spectra of Southern Pulsars
M. Toscano, M. Bailes, R. N. Manchester +1
We compare the spectral properties of the millisecond and slow pulsars detected in the Parkes 70 cm survey. The mean spectral index for the millisecond pulsars (MSPs) is -1.9 +/- 0…
The Orbital Evolution and Proper Motion of PSR J2051-0827
B. W. Stappers, M. Bailes, R. N. Manchester +2
We have carried out high-precision timing observations of the eclipsing binary PSR J2051-0827 in the 3.3 years since its discovery. These data indicate that the orbital period is d…
Discovery of the Young, Energetic Radio Pulsar PSR J1105-6107
V. M. Kaspi, M. Bailes, R. N. Manchester +4
We report the discovery and follow-up timing observations of the 63 ms radio pulsar, PSR J1105-6107. The pulsar is young, having a characteristic age of only 63 kyr and, from its d…
Timing Measurements and Their Implications for Four Binary Millisecond Pulsars
J. F. Bell, M. Bailes, R. N. Manchester +3
We present timing observations of four millisecond pulsars, using data obtained over three years at the ATNF Parkes and NRAL Jodrell Bank radio telescopes. Astrometric, spin, and b…
