The Lick AGN Monitoring Project: Photometric Light Curves and Optical Variability Characteristics (2009)

Walsh, Jonelle L., Minezaki, Takeo, Bentz, Misty C., Barth, Aaron J., Baliber, Nairn, Li, Weidong, ...

The Lick AGN Monitoring Project targeted 13 nearby Seyfert 1 galaxies with the intent of measuring the masses of their central black holes using reverberation mapping. The sample includes 12 galaxies...

The Lick AGN Monitoring Project: Broad-Line Region Radii and Black Hole Masses from Reverberation Mapping of Hbeta (2009)

Bentz, Misty C., Walsh, Jonelle L., Barth, Aaron J., Baliber, Nairn, Bennert, Nicola, Canalizo, Gabriela, ...

We have recently completed a 64-night spectroscopic monitoring campaign at the Lick Observatory 3-m Shane telescope with the aim of measuring the masses of the black holes in 12 nearby (z < 0.05)...

A New Spectroscopic and Photometric Analysis of the Transiting Planet Systems TrES-3 and TrES-4 (2009)

Sozzetti, Alessandro, Torres, Guillermo, Charbonneau, David, Winn, Joshua N., Korzennik, Sylvain G., Holman, Matthew J., ...

We report new spectroscopic and photometric observations of the parent stars of the recently discovered transiting planets TrES-3 and TrES-4. A detailed abundance analysis based on high-resolution...

TrES-3: A Nearby, Massive, Transiting Hot Jupiter in a 31-Hour Orbit (2007)

O'Donovan, Francis T., Charbonneau, David, Bakos, Gáspár Á., Mandushev, Georgi, Dunham, Edward W., Brown, Timothy M., ...

We describe the discovery of a massive transiting hot Jupiter with a very short orbital period (1.30619 d), which we name TrES-3. From spectroscopy of the host star GSC 03089-00929, we measure T_eff...

Testing the Disk Regulation Paradigm with Spitzer Observations. I. Rotation Periods of Pre-main Sequence Stars in the IC 348 Cluster (2006)

Cieza, Lucas, Baliber, Nairn

We present 75 new stellar rotation periods in the young cluster IC348. Stars estimated to be less massive than 0.25 Mo show a unimodal distribution with a peak at P ~1-2 d) and a tail of slower...
