The dB and gK Stars Near the Direction of the Galactic Center [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical and Fundamental Sciences, 2019
. An objective prism survey of the Palomar-Groningen Variable-Stars Field no. 3 has been undertaken in order to determine the stellar space distribution of dB and gK stars.

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.

Gravitoastronomy with neutron stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Recent advances in gravitational wave detectors mean that we can start to make astrophysically important statements about the physics of neutron stars based on observed upper limits to their gravitational luminosity.

Theoretical results of one class of multiderivative methods through order stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Order stars are applied to Brown (K,L) methods. They are displayed pictorially for a selection of methods and are used to provide succinct proofs of existing results.

Probing the composition of sub-millisecond rotating compact stars by r-modes instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the implications of the r-modes instability on the composition of a compact star rotating at a sub-millisecond period. In particular, the only viable astrophysical scenario for such an object, wich might present inside the Low Mass X-ray ...

Wide binary stars in the Galactic field : a statistical approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis focuses on the statistical properties of wide binary (WB) star systems in the Galactic field. With projected separations larger than 200 AU and, consequently, having very low binding energies, WB are sensitive probes of the Galactic ...

A study of U Aquarii and the nucleosynthesis of neutrons and S-process elements in evolved stars of low mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The origin of the extreme hydrogen deficiency observed in the R Coronae Borealis (RCrB) stars remains poorly understood. A likely mechanism for producing this deficiency is one whereby the original hydrogen envelope of the star is engulfed and ...

New periodic variable stars coincident with ROSAT sources discovered using SuperWASP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present optical lightcurves of 428 periodic variable stars coincident with ROSAT X-ray sources, detected using the first run of the SuperWASP photometric survey. Only 68 of these were previously recognised as periodic variables.

Radial-velocity measurements of subdwarf B stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Subdwarf B (sdB) stars are hot, subluminous stars which are thought to be core-helium burning with thin hydrogen envelopes. The mechanism by which these stars lose their envelopes has been controversial, but it has been argued that binary star ...

High-velocity Circumstellar Gas Orbiting a White Dwarf Star

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Numerous white dwarf stars are known to be orbited by disks of gas and dust. To date, broad, ∼300 km s ^−1 wide, gaseous circumstellar absorption features have only been reported for the already iconic WD 1145+017, where one is witnessing the breakup of ...
