LSST Cadence Optimization White Paper: The Definitive Map of the Galactic bulge
Oscar A. Gonzalez, Will Clarkson, Victor P. Debattista +14
We recommend configuring the LSST coverage of the inner Galactic plane to allow the production of the definitive age/metallicity map of the Galactic bulge from LSST data, matched t…
Unique Science from a Coordinated LSST-WFIRST Survey of the Galactic Bulge
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, M. Donachie +19
NASA's WFIRST mission will perform a wide-field, NIR survey of the Galactic Bulge to search for exoplanets via the microlensing techniques. As the mission is due to launch in the m…
The Diverse Science Return from a Wide-Area Survey of the Galactic Plane
R. A. Street, M. B. Lund, S. Khakpash +19
The overwhelming majority of objects visible to LSST lie within the Galactic Plane. Though many previous surveys have avoided this region for fear of stellar crowding, LSST's spati…
Longterm properties of accretion discs in X-ray Binaries - III. A search for spin-superorbital correlation in SMC X-1
Kristen C. Dage, William I. Clarkson, Philip A. Charles +2
Thanks to long-term X-ray monitoring, a number of interacting binaries are now known to show X-ray periodicities on timescales of tens to hundreds of binary orbits. In some systems…
Prospecting Period Measurements with LSST - Low Mass X-ray Binaries as a Test Case
Michael A. C. Johnson, Poshak Gandhi, Adriane P. Chapman +4
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) will provide for unbiased sampling of variability properties of objects with mag 24. This should allow for those objects whose va…
The Unusual Initial Mass Function of the Arches Cluster
M. W. Hosek, J. R. Lu, J. Anderson +5
As a young massive cluster in the Central Molecular Zone, the Arches cluster is a valuable probe of the stellar Initial Mass Function (IMF) in the extreme Galactic Center environme…
