The Effects of Close Companions (and Rotation) on the Magnetic Activity of M Dwarfs
Dylan P. Morgan, Andrew A. West, Ane Garcés +4
We present a study of close white dwarf and M dwarf (WD+dM) binary systems and examine the effect that a close companion has on the magnetic field generation in M dwarfs. We use a…
K-Band Spectroscopy of (Pre-)Cataclysmic Variables: Are Some Donor Stars Really Carbon Poor?
Steve B. Howell, Thomas E. Harrison, Paula Szkody +1
We present a new sample of -band spectral observations for CVs: non-magnetic and magnetic as well as present day and pre CVs. The purpose of this diverse sample is to address th…
The double degenerate LP400-22 revisited
S. Vennes, A. Kawka, T. R. Vaccaro +1
We re-examine the properties of the high-velocity and extremely low mass white dwarf LP 400-22 and its close companion. Based on an extended observation timeline we determined a bi…
A Radio Search For Pulsar Companions To SDSS Low-Mass White Dwarfs
Marcel A. Agueros, Fernando Camilo, Nicole M. Silvestri +3
We have conducted a search for pulsar companions to 15 low-mass white dwarfs (LMWDs; M < 0.4 M_Sun) at 820 MHz with the NRAO Green Bank Telescope (GBT). These LMWDs were spectrosco…
The Impact of the Astro2010 Recommendations on Variable Star Science
Lucianne M. Walkowicz, Andrew C. Becker, Scott F. Anderson +13
The next decade of survey astronomy has the potential to transform our knowledge of variable stars. Stellar variability underpins our knowledge of the cosmological distance ladder,…
LSST: from Science Drivers to Reference Design and Anticipated Data Products
Željko Ivezić, Steven M. Kahn, J. Anthony Tyson +310
(Abridged) We describe here the most ambitious survey currently planned in the optical, the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). A vast array of science will be enabled by a sin…
