A mildly relativistic radio jet from the otherwise normal Type Ic Supernova 2007gr

Z. Paragi, G. B. Taylor, C. Kouveliotou +11

The class of type Ic supernovae have drawn increasing attention since 1998 owing to their sparse association (only four so far) with long duration gamma-ray bursts. Although both p…

Coronal activity from the ASAS eclipsing binaries

D. M. Szczygiel, A. Socrates, B. Paczynski +2

We combine the catalogue of eclipsing binaries from the All Sky Automated Survey (ASAS) with the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS). The combination results in 836 eclipsing binaries that…

First Space-Based Microlens Parallax Measurement: Spitzer Observations of OGLE-2005-SMC-001

Subo Dong, A. Udalski, A. Gould +20

We combine Spitzer and ground-based observations to measure the microlens parallax of OGLE-2005-SMC-001, the first such space-based determination since S. Refsdal proposed the idea…

A model of AW UMa

B. Paczynski, R. Sienkiewicz, D. M. Szczygiel

The contact binary AW UMa has an extreme mass ratio, with the more massive component (the current primary) close to the main sequence, while the low mass star at q ~ 0.1 (the curre…

Microlens OGLE-2005-BLG-169 Implies Cool Neptune-Like Planets are Common

A. Gould, A. Udalski, D. An +33

We detect a Neptune mass-ratio (q~8e-5) planetary companion to the lens star in the extremely high-magnification (A~800) microlensing event OGLE-2005-BLG-169. If the parent is a ma…
