Constraining the period of the ringed secondary companion to the young star J1407 with photographic plates
R. T. Mentel, M. A. Kenworthy, D. A. Cameron +13
Context. The 16 Myr old star 1SWASP J140747.93-394542.6 (V1400 Cen) underwent a series of complex eclipses in May 2007, interpreted as the transit of a giant Hill sphere filling de…
Authenticating the Presence of a Relativistic Massive Black Hole Binary in OJ 287 Using its General Relativity Centenary Flare: Improved Orbital Parameters
Lankeswar Dey, M. J. Valtonen, A. Gopakumar +5
Results from regular monitoring of relativistic compact binaries like PSR 1913+16 are consistent with the dominant (quadrupole) order emission of gravitational waves (GWs). We show…
Skynet Algorithm for Single-Dish Radio Mapping I: Contaminant-Cleaning, Mapping, and Photometering Small-Scale Structures
J. R. Martin, D. E. Reichart, D. A. Dutton +22
We present a single-dish mapping algorithm with a number of advantages over traditional techniques. (1) Our algorithm makes use of weighted modeling, instead of weighted averaging,…
TY Pup: a low-mass-ratio and deep contact binary as a progenitor candidate of luminous red novae
T. Sarotsakulchai, S. B. Qian, B. Soonthornthum +6
TY Pup is a well-known bright eclipsing binary in southern hemisphere with an orbital period of 0.8192 days. New light curves in bands were obtained with the 0.61-m…
Signatures of an eruptive phase before the explosion of the peculiar core-collapse SN 2013gc
Andrea Reguitti, Andrea Pastorello, Giuliano Pignata +12
We present photometric and spectroscopic analysis of the peculiar core-collapse SN 2013gc, spanning seven years of observations. The light curve shows an early maximum followed by…
RW Dor: A G-type shallow contact binary with new orbital period investigation
T. Sarotsakulchai, S. -B. Qian, B. Soonthornthum +9
New CCD photometric light curves of short period (P=0.285d) eclipsing binary RW Dor are presented. The observations performed with the PROMPT-8 robotic telescope at CTIO in Chile f…
Toward Understanding the B[e] Phenomenon. VII. AS 386, a single-lined binary with a candidate black hole component
S. A. Khokhlov, A. S. Miroshnichenko, S. V. Zharikov +24
We report the results of spectroscopic and photometric observations of the emission-line object AS 386. For the first time, we found that it exhibits the B[e] phenomenon and fits t…
A Multi-Year Search For Transits Of Proxima Centauri. I: Light Curves Corresponding To Published Ephemerides
David L. Blank, Dax Feliz, Karen A. Collins +14
Proxima Centauri has become the subject of intense study since the radial-velocity discovery by Anglada-Escudé et al. 2016 of a planet orbiting this nearby M-dwarf every ~ 11.2 day…
