论文摘要

对观察站的调试调查观察到了系外行星开普勒-8b区域中的14个昏昏欲睡(v〜13至17)变量。其中三个是由小行星陆地撞击最后一个警报系统(ATLAS)发现的可变星候选者,并在此处证实。 Atlas调查在其2018年的广阔场所调查中确定了315,000个可能的变量。这些候选者中的晕厥(降至R〜18)和小幅度(降至0.02 mag)使外部验证变得困难。对少数变量恒星的确认为Atlas目录提供了信誉。最后,各种调查与这项新调查之间的一致性证实了该工具用于可变星和系外行星研究的使用。

A commissioning survey of the Lookout Observatory has observed fourteen faint (V ~ 13 to 17) variables in the region of the exoplanet Kepler-8b. Three of these are variable star candidates discovered by the Asteroid Terrestrial-Impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) and confirmed here. The ATLAS survey identified 315,000 probable variables within its wide-field survey in 2018. The faintness (down to r ~ 18) and small amplitudes (down to 0.02 mag) included in these candidates makes external validation difficult. The confirmation of this handful of variable stars lends credibility to the ATLAS catalog. Lastly, the agreement between various surveys and this new one validates the use of this instrument for variable star and exoplanet research.
