Go Long, Go Deep: Finding Optical Jet Breaks for Swift-Era GRBs with the LBT
X. Dai, P. M. Garnavich, J. L. Prieto +20
Using the 8.4m Large Binocular Telescope, we observed six GRB afterglows from 2.8 hours to 30.8 days after the burst triggers to systematically probe the late time behaviors of aft…
LBT Discovery of a Yellow Supergiant Eclipsing Binary in the Dwarf Galaxy Holmberg IX
J. L. Prieto, K. Z. Stanek, C. S. Kochanek +14
In a variability survey of M81 using the Large Binocular Telescope we have discovered a peculiar eclipsing binary (MV ~ -7.1) in the field of the dwarf galaxy Holmberg IX. It has a…
The Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope (KELT): A Small Robotic Telescope for Large-Area Synoptic Surveys
Joshua Pepper, Richard W. Pogge, D. L. DePoy +8
The Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope (KELT) project is a survey for planetary transits of bright stars. It consists of a small-aperture, wide-field automated telescope located…
NGC 5548 in a Low-Luminosity State: Implications for the Broad-Line Region
Misty C. Bentz, Kelly D. Denney, Edward M. Cackett +15
We describe results from a new ground-based monitoring campaign on NGC 5548, the best studied reverberation-mapped AGN. We find that it was in the lowest luminosity state yet recor…
