A Search for Exotrojans in Transiting Exoplanetary systems
N. Madhusudhan, Joshua N. Winn
We present a search for Trojan companions to 25 transiting exoplanets. We use the technique of Ford & Gaudi 2006, in which a difference is sought between the observed transit time…
Models for the Observable System Parameters of Ultraluminous X-ray Sources
N. Madhusudhan, S. Rappaport, Ph. Podsiadlowski +1
We investigate the evolution of the properties of model populations of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) consisting of a black-hole accretor in a binary with a donor star. We have…
Discovery of a 3.6-hr Eclipsing Luminous X-Ray Binary in the Galaxy NGC 4214
Kajal K. Ghosh, Saul Rappaport, Allyn F. Tennant +3
We report the discovery of an eclipsing X-ray binary with a 3.62-hr period within 24" of the center of the dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 4214. The orbital period places interesting co…
Models of Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources with Intermediate-Mass Black Holes
N. Madhusudhan, S. Justham, L. Nelson +4
We have computed models for ultraluminous X-ray sources ("ULXs") consisting of a black-hole accretor of intermediate mass ("IMBH"; e.g., ~1000 Msun) and a captured donor star. For…
