A Morphokinematic Study of the Enigmatic Emission Nebula NGC 6164/5 Surrounding the Magnetic O-type Star HD 148937

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
HD 148937 is a peculiar massive star (Of?p) with a strong magnetic field (1 kG). The hourglass-shaped emission nebula NGC 6164/5 surrounds this star. This nebula is presumed to originate from episodic mass-loss events of the central O-type star, but the ...

Weakened Magnetic Braking in the Exoplanet Host Star 51 Peg

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The consistently low activity level of the old solar analog 51 Peg not only facilitated the discovery of the first hot Jupiter, but also led to the suggestion that the star could be experiencing a magnetic grand minimum.

Characterization of Supernovae Interacting with Dense Circumstellar Matter with a Flat Density Profile

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Interaction between supernova (SN) ejecta and dense circumstellar medium (CSM) with a flat density structure ( ρ ∝ r ^− ^s , s < 1.5) was recently proposed as a possible mechanism behind interacting SNe that exhibit exceptionally long rise times ...

The Milky Way Project MOBStIRS: Parameterizing Infrared Stellar-wind Bow Shock Morphologies with Citizen Science

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Mass-loss influences stellar evolution, especially for massive stars with strong winds. Stellar wind bow shock nebulae driven by Galactic OB stars can be used to measure mass-loss rates ( $\dot{M}$ ).

A Study of Stochastic Low-frequency Variability for Galactic O-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
In order to explore how the ubiquitous stochastic low-frequency (SLF) variability of O-type stars is related to various stellar characteristics, we compiled a sample of 150 O-type stars observed via ground-based spectroscopic surveys, alongside ...

Rotational Evolution of Classical T Tauri Stars: Models and Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We developed a grid of stellar rotation models for low-mass and solar-type classical T Tauri stars (CTTS; 0.3 M _⊙ < M _* < 1.2 M _⊙ ). These models incorporate the star–disk interaction and magnetospheric ejections to investigate the evolution of the ...

Chromospheric dust formation, stellar masers and mass loss [PDF]

open access: yes
A multistep scenario which describes a plausible mass loss mechanism associated with red giant and related stars is outlined. The process involves triggering a condensation instability in an extended chromosphere, leading to the formation of cool, dense ...
