Empirical H- and K-band Limb Darkening for 31 CHARA Stars: A Near-Infrared Benchmark for Stellar-Atmosphere Models
Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +9
Limb darkening, the decrease in stellar intensity from the disk center to the limb, encodes the temperature structure and opacity of stellar atmospheres. Direct spatially resolved…
Pre-nova Observations of T CrB: A view from the CHARA Array
Ryan Norris, Narsireddy Anugu, Thomas Gaudin +38
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova consisting of a red giant and white dwarf with recent eruptions in 1866 and 1946 and an anticipated eruption in the mid 2020s. We report CHARA A…
Confirmation of Fe I on MASCARA-5 b's Dayside Observed With EXPRES
James T. Sikora, Joe Llama, Rachael M. Roettenbacher +5
MASCARA-5~b/TOI-1431~b is an ultra-hot Jupiter \citep[, , , $R_{\rm p}=…
A Century of Radial Velocity and Astrometric Monitoring of 70 Oph AB: New PFS Data and Constraints on Planetary Companions
Yiting Li, Michael R. Meyer, Skylar D'Angiolillo +29
At a distance of 5.1 pc, the 70 Oph AB binary star system is one of the most favorable targets for future direct imaging and astrometry missions surveying mature, terrestrial plane…
Interferometric Images of the Starspot Evolution of Andromedae
Rachael M. Roettenbacher, John D. Monnier, Heidi Korhonen +21
The evolution of starspots of the giant primaries of RS CVn systems is typically detected indirectly with photometric and spectroscopic monitoring. These observations suggest slowl…
The He I D3 Line as a Proxy for Magnetic Activity using EXPRES Solar Observations
Momo Ellwarth, Joe Llama, Lily L. Zhao +6
Stellar activity remains one of the primary challenges in the detection and characterization of low-mass exoplanets, as it can induce radial velocity (RV) variations that mask or m…
