The Tarantula Massive Binary Monitoring V. R 144: a wind-eclipsing binary with a total mass > 140 Msun
T. Shenar, H. Sana, P. Marchant +21
R 144 is the visually brightest WR star in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). R 144 was reported to be a binary, making it potentially the most massive binary thus observed. We perf…
Evolving pulsation of the slowly rotating magnetic Cep star CMa
G. A. Wade, A. Pigulski, S. Begy +11
Recent BRITE-Constellation space photometry of the slowly rotating, magnetic Cep pulsator CMa permits a new analysis of its pulsation properties. Analysis of the two-co…
The roAp star Circini as seen by BRITE-Constellation
W. W. Weiss, H. -E. Fröhlich, A. Pigulski +25
We report on an analysis of high-precision, multi-colour photometric observations of the rapidly-oscillating Ap (roAp) star Cir. These observations were obtained with the BRIT…
Catalogue of BRITE-Constellation targets I. Fields 1 to 14 (November 2013 - April 2016)
K. Zwintz, A. Pigulski, R. Kuschnig +25
The BRIght Target Explorer (BRITE) mission collects photometric time series in two passbands aiming to investigate stellar structure and evolution. Since their launches in the year…
New BRITE-Constellation observations of the roAp star Alpha Circini
W. W. Weiss, H. -E. Fröhlich, T. Kallinger +11
Chemically peculiar (CP) stars with a measurable magnetic field comprise the group of mCP stars. The pulsating members define the subgroup of rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) stars, o…
