Observations of Circumstellar Matter in Close Binary Systems [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1970
Observational evidence for the existence of matter between the components of binary stars is summarized and discussed. Five kinds of evidence are considered: the presence of emission features in spectra; the distortion of velocity curves; spectrophotometry of variable absorption features in spectra; the distortion of light curves; changes of orbital ...

Unravelling the Asphericities in the Explosion and Multifaceted Circumstellar Matter of SN 2023ixf

The Astrophysical Journal
We present a detailed investigation of photometric, spectroscopic, and polarimetric observations of the Type II SN 2023ixf. Earlier studies have provided compelling evidence for a delayed shock breakout from a confined dense circumstellar matter (CSM ...

High-resolution Spectroscopy of SN 2023ixf’s First Week: Engulfing the Asymmetric Circumstellar Material

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a series of high-resolution echelle spectra of SN 2023ixf in M101, obtained nightly during the first week or so after discovery using PEPSI on the Large Binocular Telescope.

Takeout and Delivery: Erasing the Dusty Signature of Late-stage Terrestrial Planet Formation

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The formation of planets like Earth is expected to conclude with a series of late-stage giant impacts that generate warm dusty debris, the most anticipated visible signpost of terrestrial planet formation in progress.

Problems of modelization of circumstellar matter out of equilibrium [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994
Circumstellar envelopes of young and evolved stars are responsible for many important phenomena concerning the exchange of matter, angular momentum, energy and maybe magnetic field between the core structure of stars and the interstellar medium. In particular, it is through them that matter enriched in heavy elements flows from evolved stars towards ...

Circumstellar Matter in Algols and Serpentids [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
AbstractA systematic search is reported for phenomena associated with circumstellar matter in interacting binary systems of the Algol and W Serpentis type. Ultraviolet emission lines have been detected by the author in 10 Algols and 6 Serpentids. No conspicuous difference exists between systems with disk accretion and those with direct stream impact ...

SN 2020uem: a Possible Thermonuclear Explosion within a Dense Circumstellar Medium. I. The Nature of Type IIn/Ia-CSM SNe from Photometry and Spectroscopy

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have performed intensive follow-up observations of a Type IIn/Ia-CSM supernova (SN IIn/Ia-CSM), 2020uem, with photometry, spectroscopy, and polarimetry. In this paper, we report on the results of our observations focusing on optical/near-infrared (NIR)

Circumstellar matter around the candidate protostar EL29 [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1987
Infrared speckle interferometric observations at 3.6 μm carried out at the ESO 3.6m telescope have indicated that EL29, a deeply embedded infrared source in the Ophiuchus dark cloud (Elias 1978), appears to have a core-halo structure (Zinnecker, Chelli and Perrier 1989). A fit to the data gave angular scales of order of 0.05 arcsec for the core and 3.5

New Constraints for Supernova Models from Presolar Silicon Carbide X Grains with Very High 26Al/27Al Ratios

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We report C, N, Mg-Al, Si, and S isotope data of six 1–3 μ m-sized SiC grains of Type X from the Murchison CM2 chondrite, believed to have formed in the ejecta of core-collapse supernova (CCSN) explosions.

MODELS OF CIRCUMSTELLAR MASERS IN BIPOLAR OUTFLOWS

Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Sources of molecular maser radio emission in envelopes of late-type variable stars (red giants and supergiants) are considered. Radio and optical data on asymmetry of mass loss process in red giants are briefly reviewed.
