The Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES) I. Survey Overview, Reduction Pipeline, and Early Results

Patrick Tamburo, Philip S. Muirhead, Allison M. McCarthy +9

We describe the Perkins INfrared Exosatellite Survey (PINES), a near-infrared photometric search for short-period transiting planets and moons around a sample of 393 spectroscopica…

Upper Limits on Planet Occurrence around Ultracool Dwarfs with K2

Sheila A. Sagear, Julie N. Skinner, Philip S. Muirhead

The occurrence of planets orbiting ultracool dwarfs is poorly constrained. We present results from a Guest Observer program on NASA's K2 spacecraft to search for transiting planets…

Searching for Exosatellites Orbiting L and T Dwarfs: Connecting Planet Formation to Moon Formation and Finding New Temperate Worlds

Philip S. Muirhead, Julie N. Skinner, Jacqueline Radigan +7

L-type and T-type dwarfs span the boundaries between main-sequence stars, brown dwarfs, and planetary-mass objects. For these reasons, L and T dwarfs are the perfect laboratories f…

New or Improved Orbital Periods of Cataclysmic Binaries

John R. Thorstensen, Frederick A. Ringwald, Cynthia J. Taylor +5

We present a table of 58 cataclysmic binary orbital periods determined using data from MDM Observatory. Most are heretofore unpublished; some are refinements of previously publishe…

Activity and Kinematics of White Dwarf-M Dwarf Binaries from the SUPERBLINK Proper Motion Survey

Julie N. Skinner, Dylan P. Morgan, Andrew A. West +2

We present an activity and kinematic analysis of high proper motion white dwarf-M dwarf binaries (WD+dMs) found in the SUPERBLINK survey, 178 of which are new identifications. To i…

Spectroscopic Orbital Periods for 29 Cataclysmic Variables from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

John R. Thorstensen, Cynthia J. Taylor, Christopher S. Peters +3

We report follow-up spectroscopy of 29 cataclysmic variables from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), 22 of which were discovered by SDSS and seven other previously known systems…
