Extremely precise age and metallicity of the open cluster NGC 2506 using detached eclipsing binaries
E. Knudstrup, F. Grundahl, K. Brogaard +10
Accurate stellar parameters of stars in open clusters can help constrain models of stellar structure and evolution. Here we wish to determine the age and metallicity content of the…
A Giant Planet Candidate Transiting a White Dwarf
Andrew Vanderburg, Saul A. Rappaport, Siyi Xu +61
Astronomers have discovered thousands of planets outside the solar system, most of which orbit stars that will eventually evolve into red giants and then into white dwarfs. During…
High-resolution Transmission Spectroscopy of MASCARA-2 b with EXPRES
H. Jens Hoeijmakers, Samuel H. C. Cabot, Lily Zhao +10
We report detections of atomic species in the atmosphere of MASCARA-2 b, using the first transit observations obtained with the newly commissioned EXPRES spectrograph. EXPRES is a…
Performance Verification of the EXtreme PREcision Spectrograph
Ryan T. Blackman, Debra A. Fischer, Colby A. Jurgenson +25
The EXtreme PREcision Spectrograph (EXPRES) is a new Doppler spectrograph designed to reach a radial velocity measurement precision sufficient to detect Earth-like exoplanets orbit…
An Extreme Precision Radial Velocity Pipeline: First Radial Velocities from EXPRES
Ryan R. Petersburg, J. M. Joel Ong, Lily L. Zhao +13
The EXtreme PREcision Spectrograph (EXPRES) is an environmentally stabilized, fiber-fed, , optical spectrograph. It was recently commissioned at the 4.3-m Lowell Discove…
SN 2016gsd: An unusually luminous and linear type II supernova with high velocities
T. M. Reynolds, M. Fraser, S. Mattila +27
We present observations of the unusually luminous Type II supernova (SN) 2016gsd. With a peak absolute magnitude of V = 19.95 0.08, this object is one of the brightest Typ…
