M dwarf metallicities and exoplanets
(2007-08)This dissertation is primarily focused on the topic of M dwarf metallicities and their relevance to the study of extrasolar planets. I begin by describing a method for accurately determining M dwarf metallicities with ... -
M Dwarf Metallicities And Giant Planet Occurrence: Ironing Out Uncertainties And Systematics
(2014-08)Comparisons between the planet populations around solar-type stars and those orbiting M dwarfs shed light on the possible dependence of planet formation and evolution on stellar mass. However, such analyses must control ... -
The M Dwarf Planet Search Programme At The ESO VLT + UVES A Search For Terrestrial Planets In The Habitable Zone Of M Dwarfs
(2009-10)We present radial velocity ( RV) measurements of our sample of 40 M dwarfs from our planet search programme with VLT + UVES begun in 2000. Although with our RV precision down to 2-2.5m/s and timebase line of up to 7 years, ... -
An M Sin I=24 M-Circle Plus Planetary Companion To The Nearby M Dwarf Gj 176
(2008-02)We report the detection of a planetary companion with a minimum mass of m sin i 0.0771 M-Jup 24.5 M-circle plus to the nearby (d 9.4 pc) M2.5 V star GJ 176. The star was observed as part of our M dwarf planet search at the ... -
The M-Sigma And M-L Relations In Galactic Bulges, And Determinations Of Their Intrinsic Scatter
(2009-06)We derive improved versions of the relations between supermassive black hole mass (MBH) and host-galaxy bulge velocity dispersion (sigma) and luminosity (L; the M-sigma and M-L relations), based on 49 M-BH measurements and ... -
M2M: The Wireless Revolution
(2005-01)Forecast of the economic impact and educational needs associated with M2M technologies in the state of Texas. M2M stands for "machine to machine" and refers to technologies which enable networking or remote access to devices ... -
M3 Arquitetura, Vazio S/A, Silvio Todeschi, Ana Assis, Alexandre Campos, MACh Arquitetos: Third Water Park (H3O) at Favela da Serra
(2010-07-14)The Third Water Park (H3O) was designed as an upgrade to the densely populated Favela da Serra neighborhood. This intervention project began in 2007. The park was never finished as designed (as of 2012); nevertheless, it ... -
M31N-2007-06B: A Nova in the M31 Globular Cluster Bol 111
(2007-12)We report spectroscopic observations of the nova M31N-2007-06b, which was found to be spatially coincident with the M31 globular cluster Bol 111. This nova is the first out of more than 700 discovered in M31 over the past ... -
The M87 Black Hole Mass From Gas-Dynamical Models Of Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph Observations
(2013-06)The supermassive black hole of M87 is one of the most massive black holes known and has been the subject of several stellar and gas-dynamical mass measurements; however, the most recent revision to the stellar-dynamical ... -
