We have performed a near-infrared photometric monitoring of 39 galactic young star clusters and star-forming regions, known as {\em NIP of Stars}, between the years 2009--2011, using the Swope telescope at Las Campanas Observatory (Chile)…

We present a close companion search around sixteen known early-L dwarfs using aperture masking interferometry with Palomar laser guide star adaptive optics. The use of aperture masking allows the detection of close binaries, corresponding…

The present articlereports on the first spatial intensity interferometry measurements on stars since the observations at Narrabri Observatory by Hanbury Brown et al. in the 1970's. Taking advantage of the progresses in recent years on…

We present orbital elements for twenty-two single-line binaries, nine of them studied for the first time, determined from a joint spectroscopic and astrometric solution. The astrometry is based on interferometric measurements obtained with…

We obtained spectra, in the wavelength range \lambda = 995 - 1769 nm, of all four known planets orbiting the star HR 8799. Using the suite of instrumentation known as Project 1640 on the Palomar 5-m Hale Telescope, we acquired data at two…

Advanced LIGO and Virgo have so far detected gravitational waves from 10 binary black hole mergers (BBH) and 1 binary neutron star merger (BNS). In the future, we expect the detection of many more marginal sources, since compact binary…

The COSMOS HI Large Extragalactic Survey (CHILES) Continuum & Polarization (CHILES Con Pol) survey is an ultra-deep continuum imaging study of the COSMOS field conducted using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array. We obtained 1000 hours of…

Mass and radius measurements of stars are important inputs for models of stellar structure. Binary stars are of particular interest in this regard, because astrometry and spectroscopy of a binary together provide the masses of both stars as…
