On the Circumstellar Matter Distribution around Herbig Ae/Be Stars
The spectral energy distributions (SEDs) observed in Herbig Ae/Be stars are critically analyzed in connection with a spherically symmetric model for matter distribution around the central objects. The possibility that the dusty component is described by an MRN-DL mixture (see the work of Mathis, Rumpl, and Nordsiek; Draine and Lee) and is constituted ...

Mapping Circumstellar Matter with Polarized Light: The Case of Supernova 2014J in M82 [PDF]
Optical polarimetry is an effective way of probing the environment of a supernova for dust. We acquired linear HST ACS/WFC polarimetry in bands F W 475 , F606W, and F775W of the supernova (SN) 2014J in M82 at six epochs from ∼277 days to ∼1181 days ...

Evolutionary Aspects of Circumstellar Matter in Binary Systems [PDF]
Several groups of close binary stars are considered in an attempt to explain their present state as a consequence of a large-scale mass transfer or mass loss in the past: Algol-like semidetached binaries, some shell stars (AX Mon), some binary X-ray sources (Cen X-3, Her X-1), the recurrent nova T CrB, helium-rich binaries v Sgr and KS Per, and the ...

Ion‐Scale Characteristics of the Martian Magnetic Pile‐Up Boundary Layer
Abstract The Martian magnetic pile‐up boundary (MPB) delineates the interface between the magnetosheath and the induced magnetosphere, but its global ion‐scale characteristics remaining unclear. Utilizing a three‐dimensional Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, this study aims to reveal the features of the MPB layer, including magnetic field, current ...

The delay of shock breakout due to circumstellar material evident in most type II supernovae [PDF]
International audienceType II supernovae (SNe II) originate from the explosion of hydrogen-rich supergiant massive stars. Their first electromagnetic signature is the shock breakout (SBO), a short-lived phenomenon that can last for hours to days ...

Fifteen years of “Sonderforschungsbereich” in Heidelberg: Research on circumstellar matter [PDF]
At the end of this year, the Sonderforschungsbereich (Special Collaborative Programme) no. 132 on “Theoretical and Observational Stellar Astronomy” in Heidelberg will terminate after fifteen years. Although 15 years are only 2 1/2 per cent of the age of the University of Heidelberg, which is celebrating its 600 th anniversary this year, they are ...

SEARCHING FOR LIGHT ECHOES DUE TO CIRCUMSTELLAR MATTER IN SNe Ia SPECTRA [PDF]
We present an analytical model for light echoes (LEs) coming from circumstellar material (CSM) around Type Ia Supernovae (SNe Ia). Using this model we find two spectral signatures at 4100 ? and 6200 ? that are useful to identify LEs during the Lira law phase (between 35 and 80 days after maximum light) coming from nearby CSM at distances of 0.01?0.25 ...

JWST Imaging of the Closest Globular Clusters—V. The White Dwarfs Cooling Sequence of M4
ABSTRACT We combine infrared (IR) observations collected by the James Webb Space Telescope with optical deep images by the Hubble Space Telescope taken ~20 years earlier to compute proper‐motion membership for the globular cluster (GC) M4 (NGC 6121) along its entire white dwarf (WD) cooling sequence (CS).

XMM‐Newton Observations of the Peculiar Be X‐Ray Binary A0538‐66
ABSTRACT A0538‐66 is a neutron star/Be x‐ray binary located in the Large Magellanic Cloud and, since its discovery in the 70s, it showed a peculiar behavior that makes it a unique object in the high‐mass x‐ray binaries scene: the extremely eccentric orbit (e=0.72$$ e=0.72 $$), the short spin period of the neutron star (P=69$$ P=69 $$ ms), the episodes ...
