A Large-Scale Search for Photometrically Variable AGNs in Dwarf Galaxies Using the Young Supernova Experiment

Alexander Messick, Vivienne Baldassare, David O. Jones +12

We conduct an analysis of over 60,000 dwarf galaxies (7<=log(M_*/M_\odot)<=10) in search of photometric variability indicative of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Using data from the…

The Old Host-Galaxy Environment of SSS17a, the First Electromagnetic Counterpart to a Gravitational Wave Source

Y. -C. Pan, C. D. Kilpatrick, J. D. Simon +16

We present an analysis of the host-galaxy environment of Swope Supernova Survey 2017a (SSS17a), the discovery of an electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational wave source, GW17…

Further constraints on variations in the IMF from LMXB populations

Mark B. Peacock, Stephen E. Zepf, Arunav Kundu +6

We present constraints on variations in the initial mass function (IMF) of nine local early-type galaxies based on their low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) populations. Comprised of accr…

Testing the Universality of the Stellar IMF with Chandra and HST

D. A. Coulter, B. D. Lehmer, R. T. Eufrasio +8

The stellar initial mass function (IMF), which is often assumed to be universal across unresolved stellar populations, has recently been suggested to be "bottom-heavy" for massive…
