No Neutron Star Companion To The Lowest Mass SDSS White Dwarf (2009)

Agueros, Marcel, Heinke, Craig, Camilo, Fernando, Kilic, Mukremin, Anderson, Scott, Freire, Paulo, ...

SDSS J091709.55+463821.8 (hereafter J0917+4638) is the lowest surface gravity white dwarf (WD) currently known, with log g = 5.55 +/- 0.05 (M ~ 0.17 M_sun; Kilic et al. 2007a,b). Such low-mass white...

Increasing the Number of Underrepresented Minorities in Astronomy: Executive Summary (2009)

Norman, Dara, Agueros, Marcel, Anderson, Scott F., Baker, Andrew, ...

Promoting racial and ethnic diversity is critically important to the future success and growth of the field of astronomy. The raw ability, drive and interest required to excel in the field is...

X-Ray-Emitting Stars Identified from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (2009)

Agueros, Marcel, Anderson, Scott, Covey, Kevin, Hawley, Suzanne, Margon, Bruce, Newsom, Emily, ...

The ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) was the first imaging X-ray survey of the entire sky. While X-ray source counterparts are known to range from distant quasars to nearby M dwarfs, the RASS data alone...

The Coincidence of Nuclear Star Clusters and Active Galactic Nuclei (2008)

Seth, Anil, Agueros, Marcel, Lee, Duane, Basu-Zych, Antara

We study galaxies that host both nuclear star clusters and active galactic nuclei (AGN) implying the presence of a massive black hole. We select a sample of 176 galaxies with previously detected...
