De-Trending Time Series for Astronomical Variability Surveys

Dae-Won Kim, Pavlos Protopapas, Charles Alcock +2

We present a de-trending algorithm for the removal of trends in time series. Trends in time series could be caused by various systematic and random noise sources such as cloud pass…

The Properties of Ultraviolet-Luminous Galaxies at the Current Epoch

Timothy M. Heckman, Charles G. Hoopes, Mark Seibert +23

We have used the first matched set of GALEX and SDSS data to investigate the properties of a sample of 74 nearby galaxies with far-ultraviolet luminosities chosen to overlap the lu…
