A Mini Atlas of H-Band Spectra of Southern Symbiotic Stars
Symbiotic stars are interacting binary systems composed of an evolved star (generally a late-type red giant) and a degenerate or dwarf companion in orbit close enough for mass transfer to occur. Understanding the status of the late-type star is important

Quantitative spectroscopy of close binary stars [PDF]
The method of spectral disentangling has now created the opportunity for studying the chemical composition in previously inaccessible components of binary and multiple stars.

Strong Variability in AzV 493, an Extreme Oe-type Star in the SMC
We present 18 yr of OGLE photometry together with spectra obtained over 12 yr revealing that the early Oe star AzV 493 shows strong photometric (Δ I < 1.2 mag) and spectroscopic variability with a dominant, 14.6 yr pattern and ∼40 day oscillations.

Multiple Tidal Disruptions as an Indicator of Binary Super-Massive Black Hole Systems [PDF]
We find that the majority of systems hosting multiple tidal disruptions are likely to contain hard binary SMBH systems, and also show that the rates of these repeated events are high enough to be detected by LSST over its lifetime.

A dusty pinwheel nebula around the massive star WR 104 [PDF]
Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars are luminous massive blue stars thought to be immediate precursors to the supernova terminating their brief lives. The existence of dust shells around such stars has been enigmatic since their discovery some 30 years ago; the ...

"Dark Matter" in Accretion Disks [PDF]
Using Spitzer Space Telescope photometric observations of the eclipsing, interacting binary WZ Sge, we have discovered that the accretion disk is far more complex than previously believed.

White dwarf and subdwarf stars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 14 [PDF]
White dwarfs carry information on the structure and evolution of the Galaxy, especially through their luminosity function and initial-to-final mass relation. Very cool white dwarfs provide insight into the early ages of each population.

I review the issues related to the appearance of hyperons in neutron star matter, focusing in particular on the problem of the maximum mass supported by hyperonic equations of state. I discuss the general mechanism that leads to the formation of hyperons

The Interacting Binary Be Star HR 2142 [PDF]
AbstractCurrent information on the nature of the HR 2142 system is presented. The circumstellar material (CSM) including the mass flow toward and away from the mass-gaining B star has been studied from ∼ 100 IUESWP HIRES images obtained from 1979–95 and ground-based CCD data from KPNO acquired between 1985–2001.
