The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey III: A very massive star in apparent isolation from the massive cluster R136
Joachim M. Bestenlehner, Jorick S. Vink, G. Gräfener +17
VFTS 682 is located in an active star-forming region, at a projected distance of 29 pc from the young massive cluster R136 in the Tarantula Nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud. It…
White Light Flare Continuum Observations with ULTRACAM
Adam F. Kowalski, Mihalis Mathioudakis, Suzanne L. Hawley +4
We present sub-second, continuous-coverage photometry of three flares on the dM3.5e star, EQ Peg A, using custom continuum filters with WHT/ULTRACAM. These data provide a new view…
A new code for Fourier-Legendre analysis of large datasets: first results and a comparison with ring-diagram analysis
H. -P. Doerr, M. Roth, A. Zaatri +2
Fourier-Legendre decomposition (FLD) of solar Doppler imaging data is a promising method to estimate the sub-surface solar meridional flow. FLD is sensible to low-degree oscillatio…
A precise asteroseismic age and radius for the evolved Sun-like star KIC 11026764
T. S. Metcalfe, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro, M. J. Thompson +55
The primary science goal of the Kepler Mission is to provide a census of exoplanets in the solar neighborhood, including the identification and characterization of habitable Earth-…
The R136 star cluster hosts several stars whose individual masses greatly exceed the accepted 150 Msun stellar mass limit
Paul A Crowther, Olivier Schnurr, Raphael Hirschi +4
Spectroscopic analyses of H-rich WN5-6 stars within the young star clusters NGC 3603 and R136 are presented, using archival HST & VLT spectroscopy, & high spatial resolution near-I…
An analytic interface dynamo over a shear layer of finite depth
K. Petrovay, A. Kerekes, R. Erdélyi
Parker's analytic Cartesian interface dynamo is generalized to the case of a shear layer of finite thickness and low resistivity ("tachocline"), bounded by a perfect conductor ("ra…
