A new search for variable stars in the globular cluster NGC 6366
A. Arellano Ferro, Sunetra Giridhar, V. Rojas Lopez +3
New CCD photometry of NGC 6366 has lead to the discovery of some variable stars. Two possible Anomalous Cepheids (or Pop II Cepheids), three long period variables, one SX Phe and o…
The web-PLOP observation prioritisation system
Colin Snodgrass, Yiannis Tsapras, Rachel Street +4
We present a description of the automated system used by RoboNet to prioritise follow up observations of microlensing events to search for planets. The system keeps an up-to-date r…
Light and Motion in SDSS Stripe 82: The Catalogues
D. M. Bramich, S. Vidrih, L. Wyrzykowski +19
We present a new public archive of light-motion curves in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82, covering 99 deg in right ascension from RA = 20.7 h to 3.3 h and spanning 2.52…
New UltraCool and Halo White Dwarf Candidates in SDSS Stripe 82
S. Vidrih, D. M. Bramich, P. C. Hewett +16
A 2.5 x 100 degree region along the celestial equator (Stripe 82) has been imaged repeatedly from 1998 to 2005 by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A new catalogue of ~4 million light-…
The Monitor project: Rotation of low-mass stars in the open cluster NGC 2516
Jonathan Irwin, Simon Hodgkin, Suzanne Aigrain +5
We report on the results of an i-band time-series photometric survey of NGC 2516 using the CTIO 4m Blanco telescope and 8k Mosaic-II detector, achieving better than 1% photometric…
Is Ursa Major II the Progenitor of the Orphan Stream?
M. Fellhauer, N. W. Evans, V. Belokurov +9
Prominent in the `Field of Streams' -- the Sloan Digital Sky Survey map of substructure in the Galactic halo -- is an `Orphan Stream' without obvious progenitor. In this numerical…
