Return of the King: Time-Series Photometry of FO Aquarii's Initial Recovery from its Unprecedented 2016 Low State

Colin Littlefield, Peter Garnavich, Mark R. Kennedy +28

In 2016 May, the intermediate polar FO~Aqr was detected in a low state for the first time in its observational history. We report time-resolved photometry of the system during its…

Shock Breakout and Early Light Curves of Type II-P Supernovae Observed with Kepler

P. M. Garnavich, B. E. Tucker, A. Rest +4

We discovered two transient events in the Kepler field with light curves that strongly suggest they are type II-P supernovae. Using the fast cadence of the Kepler observations we p…

Cataclysmic Variables observed during K2 Campaigns 0 and 1

Zhibin Dai, Paula Szkody, Peter M. Garnavich +1

There are 15 cataclysmic variables (CVs) observed in the first two campaigns of the K2 mission. In this paper, the eight CVs showing distinct features are analyzed in detail. Among…
