A Machine Learning Method to Infer Fundamental Stellar Parameters from Photometric Light Curves

A. A. Miller, J. S. Bloom, J. W. Richards +6

A fundamental challenge for wide-field imaging surveys is obtaining follow-up spectroscopic observations: there are > photometrically cataloged sources, yet modern spectrosc…

Discovery of Bright Galactic R Coronae Borealis and DY Persei Variables: Rare Gems Mined from ACVS

A. A. Miller, J. W. Richards, J. S. Bloom +4

We present the results of a machine-learning (ML) based search for new R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars and DY Persei-like stars (DYPers) in the Galaxy using cataloged light curves f…

GJ 3236: a new bright, very low-mass eclipsing binary system discovered by the MEarth observatory

Jonathan Irwin, David Charbonneau, Zachory K. Berta +14

We report the detection of eclipses in GJ 3236, a bright (I = 11.6) very low mass binary system with an orbital period of 0.77 days. Analysis of light- and radial velocity curves o…
