Roche tomography of cataclysmic variables - VIII: The irradiated and spotted dwarf nova, SS Cygni
C. A. Hill, Robert Connon Smith, L. Hebb +1
We present the results of our spectroscopic study of the dwarf nova SS Cygni, using Roche tomography to map the stellar surface and derive the system parameters. Given that this te…
DES Science Portal: Creating Science-Ready Catalogs
Angelo Fausti Neto, Luiz da Costa, Aurelio Carnero Rosell +55
We present a novel approach for creating science-ready catalogs through a software infrastructure developed for the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We integrate the data products release…
Roche tomography of CVs
Robert Connon Smith
Roche tomography is a technique designed for mapping the intensity distribution over the surface of binary star components that fill (or nearly fill) their Roche lobes and so are b…
Crowdsourcing quality control for Dark Energy Survey images
P. Melchior, E. Sheldon, A. Drlica-Wagner +47
We have developed a crowdsourcing web application for image quality control employed by the Dark Energy Survey. Dubbed the "DES exposure checker", it renders science-grade images d…
Roche tomography of cataclysmic variables - V. A high-latitude star-spot on RU Pegasi
Alexander Dunford, Christopher A Watson, Robert Connon Smith
We present Roche tomograms of the secondary star in the dwarf nova system RU Pegasi derived from blue and red arm ISIS data taken on the 4.2-m William Herschel Telescope. We have a…
Outlying HII Regions in HI-Selected Galaxies
J. K. Werk, M. E. Putman, G. R. Meurer +21
We present results from the first systematic search for outlying HII regions, as part of a sample of 96 emission-line point sources (referred to as ELdots - emission-line dots) der…
