Most Rotational Variables Dominated by a Single Bright Feature are CVn Stars

A. N. Heinze, Heather Flewelling, Mark E. Huber

We previously reported a rare class of variable star light curves isolated from a sample of 4.7 million candidate variables from the ATLAS survey. Dubbed `UCBH' light curves, they…

A First Catalog of Variable Stars Measured by the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS)

A. N. Heinze, John L. Tonry, Larry Denneau +6

The Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) carries out its primary planetary defense mission by surveying about 13000 deg^2 at least four times per night. The result…

Photometry and Proper Motions of M, L, and T Dwarfs from the Pan-STARRS1 3 Survey

William M. J. Best, Eugene A. Magnier, Michael C. Liu +12

We present a catalog of 9888 M, L and T dwarfs detected in the Pan-STARRS1 3 Survey (PS1), covering three-quarters of the sky. Our catalog contains nearly all known objects of s…

The fastest unbound star in our Galaxy ejected by a thermonuclear supernova

S. Geier, F. Fürst, E. Ziegerer +17

Hypervelocity stars (HVS) travel with velocities so high, that they exceed the escape velocity of the Galaxy. Several acceleration mechanisms have been discussed. Only one HVS (US…

Wide, Cool and Ultracool Companions to Nearby Stars from Pan-STARRS1

Niall R. Deacon, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +18

We present the discovery of 61 wide (>5 arcsecond) separation, low-mass (stellar and substellar) companions to stars in the solar neighborhood identified from Pan-STARRS\,1 (PS1) d…

Properties of M31. IV: Candidate Luminous Blue Variables from PAndromeda

C. -H. Lee, S. Seitz, M. Kodric +16

We perform a study on the optical and infrared photometric properties of known luminous blue variables (LBVs) in M31 using the sample of LBV candidates from the Local Group Galaxy…
