Distribution of magnetically confined circumstellar matter in oblique rotators [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2004
We consider the mechanical equilibrium and stability of matter trapped in the magnetosphere of a rapidly rotating star. Assuming a dipolar magnetic field and arbitrary inclination of the magnetic axis with respect to the axis of rotation we find stable equilibrium positions a) in a (warped) disk roughly aligned with the magnetic equatorial plane and b)

Circumstellar matter studied by spectrally-resolved interferometry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This paper describes some generalities about spectro-interferometry and the role it has played in the last decade for the better understanding of circumstellar matter. I provide a small history of the technique and its origins, and recall the basics of differential phase and its central role for the recent discoveries.

Observations of Circumstellar Matter in Close Binary Systems [PDF]

open access: yesPublications 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 ...

Modelling and observations of molecules in discs around young stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This thesis contains a study of molecules within circumstellar discs around young stars. Firstly, the chemistry of a disc around a young, Class 0 protostar is modelled.

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

open access: yesThe 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

open access: yesThe 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.

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

open access: yesSymposium - 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 ...

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

open access: yesThe 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.

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

open access: yesThe 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 in Algols and Serpentids [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 1989
A 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.
