Reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds using spectral energy distribution fitting of red giants
H. Netzel, G. Pietrzyński, M. Górski +9
Robust reddening maps of the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC/SMC) are crucial for a wide range of astrophysical studies, including the calibration of the cosmic distance lad…
Ground-based transit observations of the HAT-P-18, HAT-P-19, HAT-P-27/WASP-40 and WASP-21 systems
M. Seeliger, M. Kitze, R. Errmann +46
As part of our ongoing effort to investigate transit timing variations (TTVs) of known exoplanets, we monitored transits of the four exoplanets HAT-P-18b, HAT-P-19b, HAT-P-27b/WASP…
The variable stellar wind of Rigel probed at high spatial and spectral resolution
O. Chesneau, A. Kaufer, O. Stahl +5
We present a spatially resolved, high-spectral resolution (R=12000) K-band temporal monitoring of Rigel using AMBER at the VLTI. Rigel was observed in the Bracket Gamma line and it…
Investigation of a transiting planet candidate in Trumpler 37: an astrophysical false positive eclipsing spectroscopic binary star
R. Errmann, G. Torres, T. O. B. Schmidt +50
We report our investigation of the first transiting planet candidate from the YETI project in the young (~4 Myr old) open cluster Trumpler 37. The transit-like signal detected in t…
Transit Search from Antarctica and Chile - Comparison and Combination
T. Fruth, J. Cabrera, Sz. Csizmadia +17
Observing sites at the East-Antarctic plateau are considered to provide exceptional conditions for astronomy. The aim of this work is to assess its potential for detecting transiti…
The Berlin Exoplanet Search Telescope II. Catalog of Variable Stars. I. Characterization of Three Southern Target Fields
T. Fruth, J. Cabrera, R. Chini +11
A photometric survey of three Southern target fields with BEST II yielded the detection of 2,406 previously unknown variable stars and an additional 617 stars with suspected variab…
