Spitzer Photometry of WISE-Selected Brown Dwarf and Hyper-Luminous Infrared Galaxy Candidates [PDF]
We present Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5 $\mu$m photometry and positions for a sample of 1510 brown dwarf candidates identified by the WISE all-sky survey. Of these, 166 have been spectroscopically classified as objects with spectral types M(1), L(7), T(146), and ...

Luminosity and photometry [PDF]
The luminosity of the spectrum was determined by what may be term ed the method of the “minimal effective stimulus.” Through the partition separating two dark rooms from each other a hole was drilled 1 mm. across; this was covered with a piece of ground glass.

Variable Stars in the Globular Cluster M5. Application of the Image Subtraction Method [PDF]
We present $V$-band light curves of 61 variables from the core of the globular cluster M5 obtained using a newly developed image subtraction method (ISM). Four of these variables were previously unknown.

Current and Future Applications of Reverberation-Mapped Quasars in Cosmology
Reverberation mapping technique (RM) is an important milestone that has elevated our understanding of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) demographics, giving information about the kinematics and the structure of the Broad Line Region (BLR).

An Optimized Colorimetric Readout Method for Lateral Flow Immunoassays
Despite its broad penetration of various markets, the quantitative lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) suffers from sensitivity issues in some cases. To solve this problem, an optimized colorimetric readout method for LFIA quantification is proposed in this ...

Improved GALEX UV Photometry for 700,000 SDSS Galaxies [PDF]
The Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) satellite performed the first and only large-area UV survey, which in tandem with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has facilitated modeling of the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of low-redshift galaxies and the determination of various galaxy properties, in particular the star formation rate.

A Cubesat Payload for Exoplanet Detection
The search for undiscovered planets outside the solar system is a scientific topic that is rapidly spreading into the astrophysical and engineering communities. In this framework, the design of an innovative payload to detect exoplanets from a nano-sized
