M Dwarfs in SDSS Stripe 82: Photometric Light Curves and Flare Rate Analysis (2009)
Kowalski, A. F., Hawley, S. L., Hilton, E. J., Becker, A. C., West, A. A., Bochanski, J. J., ...
We present a flare rate analysis of 50,130 M dwarf light curves in SDSS Stripe 82. We identified 271 flares using a customized variability index to search ~2.5 million photometric observations for...
The discovery of an M4+T8.5 binary system (2009)
Burningham, Ben, Pinfield, D. J., Leggett, S. K., Tinney, C. G., Liu, M. C., Homeier, D., ...
We report the discovery of a T8.5 dwarf, which is a companion to the M4 dwarf Wolf 940. At a distance of 12.50 (+0.75,-0.67) pc, the angular separation of 32arcsec corresponds to a projected...
Galaxies appear simpler than expected (2008)
Disney, M. J., Romano, J. D., Garcia-Appadoo, D. A., West, A. A., Dalcanton, J. J., Cortese, L.
Galaxies are complex systems the evolution of which apparently results from the interplay of dynamics, star formation, chemical enrichment, and feedback from supernova explosions and supermassive...
Two-micron all-sky survey J01542930+0053266 : a new eclipsing M dwarf binary system (2008)
Becker, A. C., Agol, E., Silvestri, N. M., Bochanski, J. J., Laws, C., West, A. A., ...
We report on Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) J01542930+0053266, a faint eclipsing system composed of two M dwarfs. The variability of this system was originally discovered during a pilot study of...

Becker, A. C., Agol, E., Silvestri, N. M., Bochanski, J. J., Laws, C., West, A. A., ...
We report on 2MASS J01542930+0053266, a faint eclipsing system composed of two M dwarfs. The variability of this system was originally discovered during a pilot study of the 2MASS Calibration Point...
Mining The Next Generation Of Surveys for Cool Star Science. (2008)

The Baryon Content of Extremely Low Mass Dwarf Galaxies (2006)
Geha, M., Blanton, M. R., Masjedi, M., West, A. A.
We investigate the gas content and baryonic Tully-Fisher relationship for extremely low luminosity dwarf galaxies in the absolute magnitude range -13.5 > Mr > -16. The sample is selected from the...
Optical and infrared photometry of the unusual Type Ia supernova 2000cx (2003)
Candia, P., Krisciunas, K., Suntzeff, N. B., Gonzalez, D., Espinoza, J., Leiton, R., ...
We present optical and infrared photometry of the unusual Type Ia supernova 2000cx. With the data of Li et al. and Jha, this constitutes the largest data set ever assembled for a Type Ia SN, more...
Optical and Infrared Photometry of the Unusual Type Ia Supernova 2000cx (2002)
Candia, P., Krisciunas, K., Suntzeff, Nicholas B., Gonzalez, D., Espinoza, J., Leiton, R., ...
We present optical and infrared photometry of the unusual Type Ia supernova 2000cx. With the data of Li et al. (2001) and Jha (2002), this comprises the largest dataset ever assembled for a Type Ia...
A. A. West, C. J. Hinde, C. H. Messom, R. Harrison, D. J. Williams
Neural networks have been applied within manufacturing domains, in particular electronics industries, to address the inherent complexity, the large number of interacting process features and the lack...
