Abstract

We report the effort to search for white dwarf p-mode oscillations in RX J2117.1+3412 (V2027 Cyg), a GW Vir star. The data were taken with Miosotys, a multi-fiber photometer, mounted on the 1.93-m telescope at Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP) with a 20-Hz cadence in May 2010 and June 2012. Two intriguing signatures at 1.2081 Hz and 2.5852 Hz were found at 3.8-σ and 3.5-σ significance levels, respectively. However, possible atmospheric effects cannot be ruled out. If these two features are not real, the 3-σ upper limit of the relative amplitude for the possible oscillations in the frequency range from 1 to 10 Hz is estimated to be about 6 × 10 −4 . This is the first report in the literature for a p-mode oscillation search of GW Vir stars.

Abstract

MIOSOTYS is a multiple-object, high-speed photometer. It is currently operating on the 1.93m telescope at Observatoire de Haute-Provence (OHP), France. The instrument consists of a multi-fibre positioner which can access maximum 29 targets simultaneously, and an EMCCD camera which is capable of recording low-level light at high frame rate. This paper will describes the instrument's specifications as well as the performance, i.e., signal-to-noise ratio, under the current configuration (ProEM CCD + 1.93m telescope).

Abstract

Here we report successful interferometric coupling of two large telescopes with single-mode fibers. Interference fringes were obtained in the 2- to 2.3-micrometer wavelength range on the star 107 Herculis by using the two Keck 10-meter telescopes, each feeding their common interferometric focus with 300 meters of single-mode fibers. This experiment demonstrates the potential of fibers for future kilometric arrays of telescopes and is the first step toward the 'OHANA (Optical Hawaiian Array for Nanoradian Astronomy) interferometer at the Mauna Kea observatory in Hawaii. It opens the way to sensitive optical imagers with resolutions below 1 milli‐arc second. Our experimental setup can be directly extended to large telescopes separated by many hundreds of meters.
