Analysis of Interstellar Extinction towards the Hypergiant Cyg OB2 No. 12
Open Astronomy, 2016 The Cyg OB2 stellar association hosts an entire zoo of unique objects, and among them – an enigmatic star Cyg OB2 No. 12 (Schulte 12, MT 304). MT 304 is enigmatic not only due to its highest luminosity (according to various estimates, it is one of the ...

On the fundamental nature of the state parameter [PDF]
Géotechnique, 2022 The state parameter ψ is widely used for soil characterisation and as a controlling parameter in modern constitutive understanding of soil, but there remains a perception that the control of soil strength by ψ is merely that of a correlation. This perception possibly stems from ψ having been introduced from ‘principles’ of critical state theory rather

Wide Field Multicolor CCD Photometry in the Vicinity of the Open Cluster King 7
Open Astronomy, 2010 We present the results of CCD photometry in the seven-color Vilnius system for 1549 stars down to V ∼16 mag in a 1.5 square degree field around the cluster King 7, at the Perseus and Camelopardalis border.

Fundamental parameters of B type stars [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2014 AbstractFundamental parameters of 26 well-studied sharp-lined single early B-type stars in OB associations and in the field within a distance of ≤400 pc from the Sun are compared to high-precision data from detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs). Fundamental parameters are derived from accurate and precise atmospheric parameters determined earlier by us ...

Studying the UV Mg II Resonance Lines in 20 Be Stars
Open Astronomy, 2011 Using the GR model, we analyze the UV Mg II resonance lines in the spectra of 20 Be stars of different spectral subtypes, in order to detect the presence of satellite or discrete absorption components. The values of some physical parameters – rotational,

Solar astrophysical fundamental parameters [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 2014 The accurate determination of the solar photospheric radius has been an important problem in astronomy for many centuries. From the measurements made by the PICARD spacecraft during the transit of Venus in 2012, we obtained a solar radius of 696,156±145 kilometres. This value is consistent with recent measurements carried out atmosphere.

Open Astronomy, 2011 White dwarf stars are traditionally found to have surface compositions made primarily of hydrogen or helium. However, a new family has recently been uncovered, the so-called hot DQ white dwarfs, which have surface compositions dominated by carbon and ...

On the Nature of the Core of α Centauri A: The Impact of the Metallicity Mixture
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019 Forward asteroseismic modeling plays an important role toward a complete understanding of the physics taking place in deep stellar interiors. With a dynamical mass in the range over which models develop convective cores while in the main sequence, the ...
