IRAS 09002-4732: A Laboratory for the Formation of Rich Stellar Clusters
Konstantin V. Getman, Eric D. Feigelson, Michael A. Kuhn +2
IRAS 09002-4732 is a poorly studied embedded cluster of stars in the Vela Molecular Ridge at a distance of 1.7kpc. Deep observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory, combined wi…
An initial overview of the extent and structure of recent star formation within the Serpens Molecular Cloud using Gaia Data Release 2
Gregory J. Herczeg, Michael A. Kuhn, Xingyu Zhou +7
The dense clusters within the Serpens Molecular Cloud are among the most active regions of nearby star formation. In this paper, we use Gaia DR2 parallaxes and proper motions to st…
Astro2020 Science White Paper: The Next Decade of Astroinformatics and Astrostatistics
A. Siemiginowska, G. Eadie, I. Czekala +49
Over the past century, major advances in astronomy and astrophysics have been largely driven by improvements in instrumentation and data collection. With the amassing of high quali…
The Zwicky Transient Facility: Science Objectives
Matthew J. Graham, S. R. Kulkarni, Eric C. Bellm +114
The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF), a public-private enterprise, is a new time domain survey employing a dedicated camera on the Palomar 48-inch Schmidt telescope with a 47 deg$^2…
Gaia 17bpi: An FU Ori Type Outburst
Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Carlos Contreras Peña, Sam Morrell +7
We report on the source Gaia 17bpi and identify it as a new, ongoing FU Ori type outburst, associated with a young stellar object. The optical lightcurve from Gaia exhibited a 3.5…
Near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the low Galactic latitude globular cluster 2MASS-GC03
Julio A. Carballo-Bello, S. Ramirez Alegria, J. Borissova +12
We present deep near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of the globular cluster 2MASS-GC03 projected in the Galactic disk using MMIRS on the Clay telescope (Las Campanas Observat…
