Hello neighbor, could we borrow a cup of photons? 👋 @VRubinObs is in great company at Cerro Pachón, Chile—one of the world’s best observing sites! 🌌 Above it are @Geminiobs South (right) and SOAR (left). 📷: Olivier Bonin/SLAC

When you turn it on and it works spectacularly! The Rubin team has successfully completed the first on-sky engineering tests using the 144-megapixel engineering camera, ComCam! Up next: installing the largest digital camera in the world, LSST Camera. 🔗: rubinobservatory.org/news/rubin-com…

Do you submit manuscripts to AAS journals? Do you prepare those manuscripts in LaTeX? Then, this news is for you: in early 2025, we will release a new LaTeX template for AAS journals, AASTeX v7. Stop by the AAS booth at #AAS245 to learn more!

interrupting your scrolling to show you my first first-author paper that has just been published 🤸‍♀️ iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384… This work is titled [X/Fe] Marks the Spot: Mapping Chemical Azimuthal Variations in the Galactic Disk with APOGEE 🗺️ Let's get into it 🧵

Another fun research note, this one led by Cooper DeVane-Prugh. With TESS's 20-second cadence mode we took data for stars across the HR diagram. Sadly we didn't find any unknown new class of high-frequency variability. We were able to characterize the normal variability though.

Tenders the tabby cat, a beloved figure on UF’s campus, may receive an honorary degree after the Student Senate passed a bill on Sept. 3th. Nathaniel Pelton, a political science major, introduced the bill to honor her contributions to the UF community. alligator.org/article/2024/0…

Thrilled to share our paper, the fifth data release from the R-Process Alliance accepted by ApJS and in arxiv now! We reveal new insights into the faint r-process-enhanced stars and nucleosynthesis pathways. 🌠 arxiv.org/abs/2408.03731 @UFexplore @UFastro @AAS_Publishing

Repaired thread: Back in 2001, when I had JUST gotten into exoplanets, the Swiss planet hunting team announced a *bonkers* planet, HD 80606b. It had an eccentricity of 0.93: basically like a comet! A period of 111 days, and a periapse that made it—briefly—a hot Jupiter.

Pausing my twitter hiatus to announce my new paper published in Nature today: nature.com/articles/s4158… We confirm and characterize TIC 241249530 b, a warm Jupiter on an eccentric & retrograde orbit, and we show that it is en route to becoming a hot Jupiter ⤵️

Do you ever use the astropy LombScargle method for computing periodograms? If so, you should check out Lehman Garrison's new nifty-ls package which provides some new faster (and hardware accelerated) backends to the astropy function: github.com/flatironinstit…
