    • Exploring the variable sky with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey 

      Sesar, Branimir; Ivezic, Zeljko; Lupton, Robert; Juric, Mario; Gunn, James; Knapp, Gillian; De Lee, Nathan; Smith, Allyn; Miknaitis, Gajus; Lin, Huan; Tucker, Douglas; Doi, Mamoru; Tanaka, Masayuki; Fukugita, Masataka; Holtzman, Jon; Kent, Steve; Yanny, Brian; Schlegel, David; Finkbeiner, Douglas; Padmanabhan, Nikhil; Rockosi, Constance; Bond, Nicholas; Lee, Brian; Stoughton, Chris; Jester, Sebastian; Harris, Hugh; Harding, Paul; Brinkmann, Jon; Schneider, Donald; York, Donald; Richmond, Michael; Vanden Berk, Daniel (American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2007-12)
      We quantify the variability of faint unresolved optical sources using a catalog based on multiple SDSS imaging observations. The catalog covers SDSS Stripe 82, which lies along the celestial equator in the Southern ...
    • The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Monitor Telescope Pipeline 

      Tucker, Douglas; Kent, Stephen; Richmond, Michael; Annis, James; Smith, James; Allam, S.; Rodgers, C.; Stute, J.; Adelman-McCarthy, Jennifer; Brinkman, Jonathan; Doi, Mamoru; Finkbeiner, Douglas; Fukugita, Masataka; Goldston, J.; Greenway, B.; Gunn, James; Hendry, John; Hogg, David; Ichikawa, Shin-ichi; Ivezic, Zeljko; Knapp, Gillian; Lampeitl, Hubert; Lee, Brian; Lin, Huan; McKay, Timothy; Merrelli, A.; Munn, Jeffrey; Neilsen, E.; Newberg, H.; Richards, Gordon; Schlegel, David; Stoughton, Christopher; Uomoto, Alan; Yanny, Brian (Wiley InterScience: Astronomische Nachrichten, 2006-11)
      The photometric calibration of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) is a multi-step process which involves data from three different telescopes: the 1.0-m telescope at the US Naval Observatory (USNO), Flagstaff Station, ...
    • Two more candidate AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) Binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey 

      Anderson, Scott; Becker, Andrew; Haggard, Daryl; Prieto, Jose Luis; Knapp, Gillian; Sako, Masao; Halford, Kelly; Jha, Saurabh; Martin, Blake; Holtzman, Jon; Frieman, Joshua; Garnavich, Peter; Hayward, Suzanne; Ivezic, Zeljko; Mukadam, Anjum; Sesar, Branimir; Szkody, Paula; Malanushenko, Viktor; Richmond, Michael; Schneider, Donald; York, Donald (American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2008-06)
      AM CVn systems are a select group of ultracompact binaries with the shortest orbital periods of any known binary subclass; mass-transfer is likely from a low-mass (partially-)degenerate secondary onto a white dwarf ...
    • Ultracompact AM CVn Binaries from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: three candidates plus the first confirmed Eclipsing System 

      Anderson, Scott; Haggard, Daryl; Homer, Lee; Joshi, Nikhil; Margon, Bruce; Silvestri, Nicole; Szkody, Paula; Wolfe, Michael; Agol, Eric; Becker, Andrew; Henden, Arne; Hall, Patrick; Knapp, Gillian; Richmond, Michael; Schneider, Donald; Stinson, Gregory; Barentine, John; Brewington, Howard; Brinkmann, Jonanthan; Harvanek, Michael; Kleinman, Scott; Krzesinski, Jurek; Long, Dan; Neilsen, Eric; Nitta, Atsuko; Snedden, Stephanie (American Astronomical Society - The Astronomical Journal, 2005-11)
      AM CVn systems are a rare (about a dozen previously known) class of cataclysmic variables, arguably encompassing the shortest orbital periods (down to about 10 minutes) of any known binaries. Both binary components are ...
