Magnetic Inflation and Stellar Mass. V. Intensification and saturation of M dwarf absorption lines with Rossby number

Philip S. Muirhead, Mark J. Veyette, Elisabeth R. Newton +2

In young sun-like stars and field M dwarf stars, chromospheric and coronal magnetic activity indicators such as H, X-ray and radio emission are known to saturate with low Rossby…

The Effects of Telluric Contamination in Iodine Calibrated Precise Radial Velocities

Sharon Xuesong Wang, Jason T. Wright, Chad Bender +4

We characterized the effects of telluric absorption lines on the radial velocity (RV) precision of stellar spectra taken through an iodine cell. To isolate the effects induced by t…

Radii of 88 M Subdwarfs and Updated Radius Relations for Low-Metallicity M Dwarf Stars

Aurora Y. Kesseli, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Sergio B. Fajardo-Acosta +9

M subdwarfs are low-metallicity M dwarfs that typically inhabit the halo population of the Galaxy. Metallicity controls the opacity of stellar atmospheres; in metal poor stars, hyd…

Chemo-kinematic ages of eccentric-planet-hosting M dwarf stars

Mark J. Veyette, Philip S. Muirhead

M dwarf stars are exciting targets for exoplanet investigations; however, their fundamental stellar properties are difficult to measure. Perhaps the most challenging property to me…

A physically motivated and empirically calibrated method to measure effective temperature, metallicity, and Ti abundance of M dwarfs

Mark J. Veyette, Philip S. Muirhead, Andrew W. Mann +3

The ability to perform detailed chemical analysis of Sun-like F-, G-, and K-type stars is a powerful tool with many applications including studying the chemical evolution of the Ga…

An empirical template library of stellar spectra for a wide range of spectral classes, luminosity classes, and metallicities using SDSS BOSS spectra

Aurora Y. Kesseli, Andrew A. West, Mark Veyette +3

We present a library of empirical stellar spectra created using spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey's Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS). The templates cover spec…

NEWS: the near-infrared Echelle for wideband spectroscopy

Mark Veyette, Philip Muirhead, Zachary Hall +2

We present an updated optical and mechanical design of NEWS: the Near-infrared Echelle for Wide-band Spectroscopy (formerly called HiJaK: the High-resolution J, H and K spectromete…

The physical mechanism behind M dwarf metallicity indicators and the role of C and O abundances

Mark J. Veyette, Philip S. Muirhead, Andrew W. Mann +1

We present NIR synthetic spectra based on PHOENIX stellar atmosphere models of typical early and mid M dwarfs with varied C and O abundances. We apply multiple recently published m…

The Transit Transmission Spectrum of a Cold Gas Giant Planet

Paul A. Dalba, Philip S. Muirhead, Jonathan J. Fortney +3

We use solar occultations observed by the Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer aboard the Cassini Spacecraft to extract the 1 to 5 micron transmission spectrum of Saturn, as if…

Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury IX: A Photometric Survey of Planetary Nebulae in M31

Mark J. Veyette, Benjamin F. Williams, Julianne J. Dalcanton +8

We search Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) broadband imaging data from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury (PHAT…
