Speckle Suppression Through Dual Imaging Polarimetry, and a Ground-Based Image of the HR 4796A Circumstellar Disk
Sasha Hinkley, Ben R. Oppenheimer, Remi Soummer +7
We demonstrate the versatility of a dual imaging polarimeter working in tandem with a Lyot coronagraph and Adaptive Optics to suppress the highly static speckle noise pattern--the…
Temporal Evolution of Coronagraphic Dynamic Range, and Constraints on Companions to Vega
Sasha Hinkley, Ben R. Oppenheimer, Remi Soummer +8
The major obstacle to the direct detection of companions to nearby stars is the overwhelming brightness of the host star. Current instruments employing the combination of adaptive…
Cataclysmic and Close Binaries in Star Clusters. V. Erupting Dwarf Novae, Faint Blue Stars, X-ray sources, and the Classical Nova in the Core of M80
Michael M. Shara, Sasha Hinkley, David R. Zurek
Large populations of cataclysmic variables (CVs) in globular clusters have long been predicted, but the number of absolutely certain cluster CVs known in globulars is still less th…
Erupting Cataclysmic Variable Stars in the Nearest Globular Cluster, NGC 6397: Intermediate Polars?
Michael M. Shara, Sasha Hinkley, David R. Zurek +2
NGC 6397 is the closest globular cluster, and hence the ideal place to search for faint stellar populations such as cataclysmic variables (CVs). HST and Chandra observers have iden…
The Luminous Erupting Dwarf Nova CV1 in the Dense Globular Cluster M15
Michael M. Shara, Sasha Hinkley, David R. Zurek +1
Despite decades-old predictions of the expected presence of dozens of cataclysmic variables in the cores of globular clusters, the number of irrefutable, out-bursting candidates is…
Erupting Dwarf Novae in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Michael M. Shara, Sasha Hinkley, David R. Zurek
We report the first likely detections of erupting Dwarf Novae (DN) in an external galaxy: the Large Magellanic Cloud. Six candidates were isolated from approximately a million star…
