SMSS J130522.47-293113.0: a high-latitude stellar X-ray source with pc-scale outflow relics?
G. S. Da Costa, R. Soria, S. A. Farrell +17
We report the discovery of an unusual stellar system, SMSS J130522.47-293113.0. The optical spectrum is dominated by a blue continuum together with emission lines of hydrogen, neut…
Finding RR Lyrae Stars with SkyMapper: an Observational Test
S. Akhter, G. S. Da Costa, S. C. Keller +3
One of the major science goals of the SkyMapper Survey of the Southern Hemisphere sky is the determination of the shape and extent of the halo of the Galaxy. In this paper we quant…
SkyMapper and the Southern Sky Survey - a resource for the southern sky
S. C. Keller, B. P. Schmidt, M. S Bessell
SkyMapper is amongst the first of a new generation of dedicated, wide-field survey telescopes. The 1.3m SkyMapper telescope features a 5.7 square degree field-of-view Cassegrain im…
SkyMapper and the Southern Sky Survey
S. C. Keller, B. P. Schmidt, M. S. Bessell +10
This paper presents the design and science goals for the SkyMapper telescope. SkyMapper is a 1.3m telescope featuring a 5.7 square degree field-of-view Cassegrain imager commission…
Bump Cepheids in the Magellanic Clouds: Metallicities, the Distances to the LMC and SMC, and the Pulsation-Evolution Mass Discrepancy
S. C. Keller, P. R. Wood
We utilize nonlinear pulsation models to reproduce the observed light and color curves for two samples of bump Cepheid variables, 19 from the Large Magellanic Cloud and 9 from the…
Testing LMC Microlensing Scenarios: The Discrimination Power of the SuperMACHO Microlensing Survey
A. Rest, C. Stubbs, A. C. Becker +18
Characterizing the nature and spatial distribution of the lensing objects that produce the previously measured microlensing optical depth toward the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) re…
