This event showcases the art, books, juried exhibits, music, Tmedia, patents, and journal contributions of UTA faculty in 2016. The Libraries initiated this event to shine a spotlight on the impressive depth and breadth of scholarship and creativity produced by UTA faculty. These scholars are achieving unprecedented excellence in research, teaching, and community engagement. 1 Each year the number of scholars we honor grows. This year we have a 25% increase in faculty scholarly citations and have grown to represent over 400 faculty. We congratulate the colleagues represented in these pages and on the Faculty Creative Works website at library.uta.edu/fcw. Their work epitomizes the high standards of excellence and the growth of research activity at UTA.

  • Transit Timing Analysis of the Hot Jupiters WASP-43B and WASP-46B and the Super Earth Gj1214b
    Transit timing analysis of the hot Jupiters WASP-43b and WASP-46b and the super Earth GJ1214b Mathias Polfliet Promotors: Michaël Gillon, Maarten Baes 1 Abstract Transit timing analysis is proving to be a promising method to detect new planetary partners in systems which already have known transiting planets, particularly in the orbital resonances of the system. In these resonances we might be able to detect Earth-mass objects well below the current detection and even theoretical (due to stellar variability) thresholds of the radial velocity method. We present four new transits for WASP-46b, four new transits for WASP-43b and eight new transits for GJ1214b observed with the robotic telescope TRAPPIST located at ESO La Silla Observatory, Chile. Modelling the data was done using several Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations of the new transits with old data and a collection of transit timings for GJ1214b from published papers. For the hot Jupiters this lead to a general increase in accuracy for the physical parameters of the system (for the mass and period we found: 2.034±0.052 MJup and 0.81347460±0.00000048 days and 2.03±0.13 MJup and 1.4303723±0.0000011 days for WASP-43b and WASP-46b respectively). For GJ1214b this was not the case given the limited photometric precision of TRAPPIST. The additional timings however allowed us to constrain the period to 1.580404695±0.000000084 days and the RMS of the TTVs to 16 seconds. We investigated given systems for Transit Timing Variations (TTVs) and variations in the other transit parameters and found no significant (3sv) deviations.

  • Architecture for Going to the Outer Solar System
    ARGOSY ARGOSY: ARchitecture for Going to the Outer solar SYstem Ralph L. McNutt Jr. ll solar system objects are, in principle, targets for human in situ exploration. ARGOSY (ARchitecture for Going to the Outer solar SYstem) addresses anew the problem of human exploration to the outer planets. The ARGOSY architecture approach is scalable in size and power so that increasingly distant destinations—the systems of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—can be reached with the same crew size and time require- ments. To enable such missions, achievable technologies with appropriate margins must be used to construct a viable technical approach at the systems level. ARGOSY thus takes the step past Mars in addressing the most difficult part of the Vision for Space AExploration: To extend human presence across the solar system.

  • Uranus, Neptune and Pluto
    Modern Astronomy: Voyage to the Planets Lecture 8 The outer planets: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto University of Sydney Centre for Continuing Education Autumn 2005 Tonight: • Uranus • Neptune • Pluto and Chiron • The Voyager missions continue (or not?) The only mission to fly to the outer planets was Voyager 2. After leaving Saturn in August 1981, Voyager arrived at Uranus in January 1986, then flew on past Neptune in August 1989. It then swung down below the ecliptic and headed into interstellar space. Uranus Uranus was discovered in 1781 by William Herschel, musician and amateur astronomer. Herschel became the first person in recorded history to discover a new planet, at a stroke doubling the size of the known Solar System. In fact, Uranus had been detected, mistaken for a star, on 22 occasions during the preceding century, including by John Flamsteed, the first Astronomer Royal, who called it 34 Tauri. Basic facts Uranus Uranus/Earth Mass 86.83 x 1024 kg 14.536 Radius 25,559 km 4.007 Mean density 1.270 g/cm3 0.230 Gravity (eq., 1 bar) 8.87 m/s2 0.905 Semi-major axis 2872 x 106 km 19.20 Period 30 685.4 d 84.011 Orbital inclination 0.772o - Orbital eccentricity 0.0457 2.737 Axial tilt 97.8o 4.173 Rotation period –17.24 h 0.720 Length of day 17.24 h 0.718 Uranus shows an almost totally featureless disk. Even Voyager 2 at a distance of 80,000 km saw few distinguishable features. Uranus’ atmosphere is made up of 83% hydrogen, 15% helium, 2% methane and small amounts of acetylene and other hydrocarbons.
