A Tale of Two Stars: Interferometric Studies of Post-AGB Binaries
M. Hillen, J. Menu, B. de Vries +7
Binaries with circumbinary disks are commonly found among optically bright post-AGB stars. Although clearly linked to binary interaction processes, the formation, evolution and fat…
KIC 10080943: An eccentric binary system containing two pressure- and gravity-mode hybrid pulsators
V. S. Schmid, A. Tkachenko, C. Aerts +14
Gamma Doradus and delta Scuti pulsators cover the transition region between low mass and massive main-sequence stars, and as such, are critical for testing stellar models. When the…
The design of the n2EDM experiment
N. J. Ayres, G. Ban, L. Bienstman +58
We present the design of a next-generation experiment, n2EDM, currently under construction at the ultracold neutron source at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) with the aim of carr…
On the structure of the transition disk around TW Hya
J. Menu, R. van Boekel, T. Henning +25
For over a decade, the structure of the inner cavity in the transition disk of TW Hydrae has been a subject of debate. Modeling the disk with data obtained at different wavelengths…
Generating a highly uniform magnetic field inside the magnetically shielded room of the n2EDM experiment
C. Abel, N. J. Ayres, G. Ban +63
We present a coil system designed to generate a highly uniform magnetic field for the n2EDM experiment at the Paul Scherrer Institute. It consists of a main coil and a set of…
The evolved circumbinary disk of AC Her: a radiative transfer, interferometric and mineralogical study
M. Hillen, B. L. de Vries, J. Menu +3
We aim to constrain the structure of the circumstellar material around the post-AGB binary and RV Tauri pulsator AC Her. We want to constrain the spatial distribution of the amorph…
