Kuiper Belt Object Occultations: Expected Rates, False Positives, and Survey Design
Steven Bickerton, Doug Welch, JJ Kavelaars
A novel method of generating artificial scintillation noise is developed and used to evaluate occultation rates and false positive rates for surveys probing the Kuiper Belt with th…
The MACHO Project HST Follow-Up: The Large Magellanic Cloud Microlensing Source Stars
C. A. Nelson, A. J. Drake, K. H. Cook +21
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) WFPC2 photometry of 13 microlensed source stars from the 5.7 year Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) survey conducted by the MACHO Project. The mi…
Spectral Identification of an Ancient Supernova using Light Echoes in the LMC
A. Rest, T. Matheson, S. Blondin +26
We report the successful identification of the type of the supernova responsible for the supernova remnant SNR 0509-675 in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using Gemini spectra of…
A Search for sub-km KBOs with the Method of Serendipitous Stellar Occultations
S. J. Bickerton, J. J. Kavelaars, D. L. Welch
The results of a search for sub-km Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) with the method of serendipitous stellar occultations are reported. Photometric time series were obtained on the 1.8m…
An Extremely Bright Echo Associated With SN 2002hh
D. L. Welch, Geoffrey C. Clayton, Amy Campbell +4
We present new, very late-time optical photometry and spectroscopy of the interesting Type II-P supernova, SN 2002hh, in NGC 6946. Gemini/GMOS-N has been used to acquire visible sp…
