Combined Nucleosynthetic Yields of Multiple First Stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Modern numerical simulations of the formation of the first stars predict that the first stars formed in multiples. In those cases, the chemical yields of multiple supernova explosions may have contributed to the formation of a next generation star.

Multiple views of magnetism in cool stars [PDF]

open access: green, 2012
Magnetic fields are regarded as a crucial element for our understanding of stellar physics. They can be studied with a variety of methods which provide complementary - and sometimes contradictory - information about the structure, strength and dynamics ...

Follow-Up and Validation of K2 and TESS Planetary Systems With Keck NIRC2 Adaptive Optics Imaging

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
High resolution imaging (HRI) is a critical part of the transiting exoplanet follow-up and validation process. HRI allows previously unresolved stellar companions and background blends to be resolved, vetting false positive signals and improving the ...

Architecture of Hierarchical Stellar Systems and Their Formation

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
Accumulation of new data on stellar hierarchical systems and the progress in numerical simulations of their formation open the door to genetic classification of these systems, where properties of a certain group (family) of objects are tentatively ...

Twin High-Resolution, High-Speed Imagers for the Gemini Telescopes: Instrument Description and Science Verification Results

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Two new imaging instruments, ‘Alopeke and Zorro, were designed, built, and commissioned at the Gemini-North and Gemini-South telescopes in 2018 and 2019, respectively. Here we describe them and present the results from over a year of operation.

Dynamics of Four Triple Systems

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Orbital motions in four hierarchical stellar systems discovered by speckle interferometry are studied. Their inner orbits are relatively well constrained, while the long outer orbits are less certain.

V907 Sco Switched to the Eclipsing Mode Again

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
V907 Scorpii is a unique triple system in which the inner binary component has been reported to have switched on and off eclipses several times in modern history.

CCD Measurements of Double and Multiple Stars at NAO Rozhen. IV [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2010
Using the 2 m telescope of the Bulgarian National Astronomical Observatory at Rozhen observations of 30 double or multiple stars were carried out during two half nights on July 20and 21, 2009.

Born to Be Wide: The Distribution of Wide Binaries in the Field and Soft Binaries in Clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Most stars, binaries, and higher-multiplicity systems are thought to form in stellar clusters and associations that later dissociate. Very wide binaries can be easily disrupted in clusters due to dynamical evaporation (soft binaries) and/or tidal ...

A Catalog of Nearby Accelerating Star Candidates in Gaia DR3

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We describe a new catalog of accelerating star candidates with Gaia G ≤ 17.5 mag and distances d ≤ 100 pc. Designated as the Gaia Nearby Accelerating Star Catalog (GNASC), it contains 29,684 members identified using a supervised machine-learning ...
