Spitzer Observations of Interstellar Object 1I/`Oumuamua
DE Trilling, M Mommert, JL Hora +20
1I/`Oumuamua is the first confirmed interstellar body in our Solar System. Here we report on observations of `Oumuamua made with the Spitzer Space Telescope on 2017 November 21--22…
Multiwavelength Light Curves of Two Remarkable Sagittarius A* Flares
G. G. Fazio, J. L. Hora, G. Witzel +13
Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, is known to be a variable source of X-ray, near-infrared (NIR), and submillimeter (submm) radiatio…
The Science Advantage of a Redder Filter for WFIRST
John Stauffer, George Helou, Robert A. Benjamin +13
WFIRST will be capable of providing Hubble-quality imaging performance over several thousand square degrees of the sky. The wide-area, high spatial resolution survey data from WFIR…
Variability Timescale and Spectral Index of Sgr A* in the Near Infrared: Approximate Bayesian Computation Analysis of the Variability of the Closest Supermassive Black Hole
G. Witzel, G. Martinez, J. Hora +16
Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) is the variable radio, near-infrared (NIR), and X-ray source associated with accretion onto the Galactic center black hole. We present an analysis of the mo…
OGLE-2014-BLG-0962 and the First Statistical Validation of Bayesian Priors for Galactic Microlensing
Yutong Shan, Jennifer C. Yee, Andrzej Udalski +46
OGLE-2014-BLG-0962 (OB140962) is a stellar binary microlensing event that was well-covered by observations from the Spitzer satellite as well as ground-based surveys. Modelling yie…
Microlensing Parallax for OGLE-2017-BLG-0896 Reveals a Counter-Rotating Low-Mass Brown Dwarf
Yossi Shvartzvald, Jennifer C. Yee, Jan Skowron +63
The kinematics of isolated brown dwarfs in the Galaxy, beyond the solar neighborhood, is virtually unknown. Microlensing has the potential to probe this hidden population, as it ca…
