Relation of Observable Stellar Parameters to Mass-Loss Rate of AGB Stars in the LMC
Henry A. Prager, Lee Anne Willson, Massimo Marengo +1
Using the Riebel et al. (2012) data set for 6,889 pulsating AGB stars in the LMC, we have derived formulae for mass-loss rate as a function of luminosity and pulsation period or lu…
Utilizing Small Telescopes Operated by Citizen Scientists for Transiting Exoplanet Follow-up
Robert T. Zellem, Kyle A. Pearson, Ethan Blaser +41
Due to the efforts by numerous ground-based surveys and NASA's Kepler and TESS, there will be hundreds, if not thousands, of transiting exoplanets ideal for atmospheric characteriz…
Stars at High Spatial Resolution
Kenneth G. Carpenter, Gerard van Belle, Alexander Brown +19
We summarize some of the compelling new scientific opportunities for understanding stars and stellar systems that can be enabled by sub-milliarcsec (sub-mas) angular resolution, UV…
Exploring Active Supermassive Black Holes at 100 Micro-arcsecond Resolution
Makoto Kishimoto, Theo ten Brummelaar, Douglas Gies +6
Super-high spatial resolution observations in the infrared are now enabling major advances in our understanding of supermassive black hole systems at the centers of galaxies. Infra…
Precision Analysis of Evolved Stars
Stephen Ridgway, Rachel Akeson, Ellyn Baines +20
Evolved stars dominate galactic spectra, enrich the galactic medium, expand to change their planetary systems, eject winds of a complex nature, produce spectacular nebulae and illu…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: Fundamental Physics with Brown Dwarfs: The Mass-Radius Relation
Adam Burgasser, Isabelle Baraffe, Matthew Browning +17
The lowest-mass stars, brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets span a minimum in the mass-radius relationship that probes the fundamental physics of extreme states of matter, magnetism,…
