The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping Project: Investigation of Continuum Lag Dependence on Broad-Line Contamination and Quasar Properties

Hugh W. Sharp, Y. Homayouni, Jonathan R. Trump +16

This work studies the relationship between accretion-disk size and quasar properties, using a sample of 95 quasars from the SDSS-RM project with measured lags between the and $…

Constraining the Initial-Final Mass Relation with Wide Double White Dwarfs

Jeff J. Andrews, Marcel A. Agüeros, Alexandros Gianninas +3

In wide double white dwarf (DWD) binaries, in which the co-eval WDs evolve independently, the more massive, faster-evolving WD can be used to obtain a main-sequence lifetime for th…

The Milky Way Tomography with SDSS: III. Stellar Kinematics

N. A. Bond, Z. Ivezic, B. Sesar +2

We study Milky Way kinematics using a sample of 18.8 million main-sequence stars with r<20 and proper-motion measurements derived from SDSS and POSS astrometry, including ~170,000…

SEGUE: A Spectroscopic Survey of 240,000 stars with g=14-20

II SEGUE Collaboration, Brian Yanny, Constance Rockosi +2

The SEGUE survey obtained 240,000 moderate resolution (R = 1800) spectra from 3900 - 9000 Angstroms of fainter Milky Way stars (14.0 < g < 20.3) of a wide variety of spectral types…

Model Atmosphere Analysis of the Weakly Magnetic DZ White Dwarf G165-7

P. Dufour, P. Bergeron, G. D. Schmidt +5

A reanalysis of the strongly metal-blanketed DZ white dwarf G165-7 is presented. An improved grid of model atmospheres and synthetic spectra is used to analyze BVRI, JHK, and ugriz…
