Optical Spectropolarimetric Variability Properties in Blazars PKS 0637-75 and PKS 1510-089

Stephanie A. Podjed, Ryan C. Hickox, Jedidah C. Isler +2

Spectropolarimetry is a powerful tool to investigate the central regions of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) as polarization signatures are key to probing magnetic field structure, ev…

2020 Vision: Towards a Sustainable OIR System

Sally Oey, Tom Maccarone, Fred Walter +16

Open-access telescopes of all apertures are needed to operate a competitive and efficient national science program. While larger facilities contribute light-gathering power and ang…

A Consolidated Framework of the Color Variability in Blazars: Long-Term Optical/Near-Infrared Observations of 3C 279

Jedidah C. Isler, C. Megan Urry, Paolo Coppi +5

We evaluate the optical/near-infrared (OIR) color variability of 3C 279 in both gamma-ray flaring and non-flaring states over 7-year timescales using the Small and Medium Aperture…

A search of the Orion spur for continuous gravitational waves using a "loosely coherent" algorithm on data from LIGO interferometers

J. Aasi, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +920

We report results of a wideband search for periodic gravitational waves from isolated neutron stars within the Orion spur towards both the inner and outer regions of our Galaxy. As…

The Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey: Variable Object Selection and Anticipated Results

Eric Morganson, Paul J. Green, Scott F. Anderson +37

We present the selection algorithm and anticipated results for the Time Domain Spectroscopic Survey (TDSS). TDSS is an SDSS-IV eBOSS subproject that will provide initial identifica…
