Possible Transiting Planet Candidates from the EXPLORE Project
G. Mallen-Ornelas, S. Seager, H. K. C. Yee +5
The EXPLORE Project is a series of searches for transiting extrasolar planets using large-format mosaic CCD cameras on 4-m class telescopes. Radial velocity follow-up is done on tr…
The EXPLORE Project: A Deep Search for Transiting Extra-Solar Planets
H. K. C. Yee, G. Mallen-Ornelas, S. Seager +5
Searching for transits provides a very promising technique for finding close-in extra-solar planets. Transiting planets present the advantage of allowing one to determine physical…
Photometry Results for the Globular Clusters M10 and M12: Extinction Maps, Color-Magnitude Diagrams, and Variable Star Candidates
Kaspar von Braun, Mario Mateo, Kristin Chiboucas +2
We report on photometry results of the equatorial globular clusters (GCs) M10 and M12. These two clusters are part of our sample of GCs which we are probing for the existence of ph…
The Type Ia Supernova 1999aw: a Probable 1999aa-like Event In a Low-Luminosity Host Galaxy
L. -G. Strolger, R. C. Smith, N. B. Suntzeff +39
SN 1999aw was discovered during the first campaign of the Nearby Galaxies Supernova Search (NGSS) project. This luminous, slow-declining (Delta m_{15} (B) = 0.81 \pm 0.03) Type Ia…
The EXPLORE Project I: A Deep Search for Transiting Extrasolar Planets
G. Mallen-Ornelas, S. Seager, H. K. C. Yee +4
(Abridged) We discuss the design considerations of the EXPLORE (EXtra-solar PLanet Occultation REsearch) project, a series of transiting planet searches using 4-m-class telescopes…
