Recurring Occultations of RW Aurigae by Coagulated Dust in the Tidally Disrupted Circumstellar Disk
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Phillip A. Reed, Robert J. Siverd +7
We present photometric observations of RW Aurigae, a Classical T Tauri system, that reveal two remarkable dimming events. These events are similar to that which we observed in 2010…
KELT-14b and KELT-15b: An Independent Discovery of WASP-122b and a New Hot Jupiter
Joseph E. Rodriguez, Knicole D. Colon, Keivan G. Stassun +28
We report the discovery of KELT-14b and KELT-15b, two hot Jupiters from the KELT-South survey. KELT-14b, an independent discovery of the recently announced WASP-122b, is an inflate…
KELT-10b: The First Transiting Exoplanet from the KELT-South Survey -- A Hot Sub-Jupiter Transiting a V = 10.7 Early G-Star
Rudolf B. Kuhn, Joseph E. Rodriguez, Karen A. Collins +30
We report the discovery of KELT-10b, the first transiting exoplanet discovered using the KELT-South telescope. KELT-10b is a highly inflated sub-Jupiter mass planet transiting a re…
Metrics for Optimization of Large Synoptic Survey Telescope Observations of Stellar Variables and Transients
Michael B. Lund, Robert J. Siverd, Joshua A. Pepper +1
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will be the largest time-domain photometric survey ever. In order to maximize the LSST science yield for a broad array of transient stell…
KELT-8b: A highly inflated transiting hot Jupiter and a new technique for extracting high-precision radial velocities from noisy spectra
Benjamin J. Fulton, Karen A. Collins, B. Scott Gaudi +29
We announce the discovery of a highly inflated transiting hot Jupiter discovered by the KELT-North survey. A global analysis including constraints from isochrones indicates that th…
Beyond the New Horizon: The Future of Pluto
Michael B. Lund
Since its discovery in 1930, Pluto's mass has been a value that has repeatedly been calculated. Additionally, the search for Planet X prior to Pluto's discovery results in mass cal…
Transiting Planets with LSST II. Period Detection of Planets Orbiting 1 Solar Mass Hosts
Savannah R. Jacklin, Michael B. Lund, Joshua Pepper +1
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will photometrically monitor approximately 1 billion stars for ten years. The resulting light curves can be used to detect transiting exo…
