ULTRACAM: an ultrafast, triple - beam CCD camera for high-speed astrophysics
V. S. Dhillon,Tom Marsh,M. J. Stevenson,David Atkinson,P. Kerry,P. T. Peacocke,A. J. A. Vick,Steven Beard,Derek Ives,David Lunney,S. A. McLay,Chris Tierney,J. Kelly,S. P. Littlefair,Rhana B. Nicholson,R. Pashley,E. T. Harlaftis,Kieran O'Brien +17 more
TL;DR: The ULTRACAM as discussed by the authors is a portable, high-speed imaging photometer designed to study faint astronomical objects at high temporal resolutions, which employs two dichroic beamsplitters and three frame transfer CCD cameras to provide three-colour optical imaging at frame rates of up to 500 Hz.

Hermes,Puji Irawati,P. Kerry,S. P. Littlefair,M. J. McAllister,S. Rattanasoon,S. Rattanasoon,Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas,D. I. Sahman,M. R. Schreiber +21 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present high-precision, model-independent, mass and radius measurements for 16 white dwarfs in detached eclipsing binaries and combine these with previously published data to test the theoretical white dwarf mass-radius relationship.
