Structure in the Disk of epsilon Aurigae: Analysis of the ARCES and TripleSpec data obtained during the 2010 eclipse
Justus L. Gibson, Robert E. Stencel, William Ketzeback +4
Context: Worldwide interest in the recent eclipse of epsilon Aurigae resulted in the generation of several extensive data sets, including those related to high resolution spectrosc…
HD 5501: A Rapidly Evolving Interacting Eclipsing Binary with a Variable Light Curve and H Emission
Richard O. Gray, Christopher. J. Corbally, Sean Curry +19
HD~5501, a hitherto little studied eclipsing binary with an early A-type primary, has been caught in a short-lived, astrophysically interesting phase of its binary evolution. Recen…
Spectroscopic Analysis of the 2025 Eclipse of the Symbiotic Binary V1413 Aquilae
David Boyd, James Foster, Forrest Sims +12
We report on a coordinated campaign by amateur astronomers using a combination of high and low resolution spectroscopy to observe the 2025 eclipse of the symbiotic binary V1413 Aql…
Outbursts and stellar properties of the classical Be star HD 6226
Noel D. Richardson, Olivier Thizy, Jon E. Bjorkman +58
The bright and understudied classical Be star HD 6226 has exhibited multiple outbursts in the last several years during which the star grew a viscous decretion disk. We analyze 659…
The Zwicky Transient Facility Census of the Local Universe I: Systematic search for Calcium rich gap transients reveal three related spectroscopic sub-classes
Kishalay De, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Anastasios Tzanidakis +47
(Abridged) Using the Zwicky Transient Facility alert stream, we are conducting a large campaign to spectroscopically classify all transients occurring in galaxies in the Census of…
The International Epsilon Aurigae Campaign 2009-2011. A description of the campaign and early results to May 2010
Robin Leadbeater
In early 2009, immediately following the end of the WR140 periastron campaign (see these proceedings), I turned my telescope back to epsilon Aurigae in time for the start of the ec…
