Halo Luminosity Function From Photometric Calibration of the Revised NLTT

Andrew Gould, Juna A. Kollmeier, Julio Chaname +1

We calibrate the photographic photometry of the revised New Luyten Two-Tenths catalog (rNLTT) by matching 3448 rNLTT stars to the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The correction is…

Microlensing Characterization of Wide-Separation Planets

Cheongho Han, B. Scott Gaudi, Jin H. An +1

With their excellent photometric precision and dramatic increase in monitoring frequency, future microlensing survey experiments are expected to be sensitive to very short time-sca…

The Microlensing Planet Finder: Completing the Census of Extrasolar Planets in the Milky Way

D. P. Bennett, I. Bond, E. Cheng +21

The Microlensing Planet Finder (MPF) is a proposed Discovery mission that will complete the first census of extrasolar planets with sensitivity to planets like those in our own sol…

Prospects for the Detection of Earth-Mass Planets

Andrew Gould, B. Scott Gaudi, Cheongho Han

We compare potential state-of-the-art experiments for detecting Earth-mass planets around main-sequence stars using radial velocities, transits, astrometry, and microlensing. For c…

Type Ia supernova rate at a redshift of ~ 0.1

G. Blanc, C. Afonso, C. Alard +58

We present the type Ia rate measurement based on two EROS supernova search campaigns (in 1999 and 2000). Sixteen supernovae identified as type Ia were discovered. The measurement o…

The Mass of the MACHO-LMC-5 Lens Star

Andrew Gould, David P. Bennett, David R. Alves

We combine the available astrometric and photometric data for the 1993 microlensing event MACHO-LMC-5 to measure the mass of the lens, M=0.097 +/- 0.016 Msun. This is the most prec…

v_\perp CMD

Andrew Gould

I present an Hipparcos color-magnitude diagram (CMD) that is color-coded by transverse velocity v_\perp. This illustrates the connection between the photometric and kinematic prope…

KELT: The Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope

Joshua Pepper, Andrew Gould, D. L. DePoy

Transits of bright stars offer a unique opportunity to study detailed properties of extrasolar planets that cannot be determined through radial-velocity observations. We propose a…
