Ultraluminous and Hyperluminous Infrared Galaxies in the SDSS, 2dFGRS and 6dFGS
Ho Seong Hwang, Stephen Serjeant, Myung Gyoon Lee +2
We present a result of cross-correlating the Infrared Astronomical Satellite Faint Source Catalogue (IRAS FSC) with the spectroscopic catalogues of galaxies in the Fourth Data Rele…
Theoretical orbital period distributions of cataclysmic variables above the period gap: effects of circumbinary disks
B. Willems, R. Taam, U. Kolb +2
The population of non magnetic cataclysmic variables evolving under the influence of a circumbinary disk is investigated for systems above the upper edge of the period gap at orbit…
The influence of selection effects on the observed cataclysmic variable population: modelling and application to the Palomar-Green sample
Magaretha L. Pretorius, Christian Knigge, Ulrich Kolb
Large differences between the properties of the known sample of cataclysmic variable stars (CVs) and the predictions of the theory of binary star evolution have long been recognise…
Mass transfer during low mass X-ray transient decays
Craig R. Powell, Carole A. Haswell, Maurizio Falanga
The outbursts of low mass X-ray binaries are prolonged relative to those of dwarf nova cataclysmic variables as a consequence of X-ray irradiation of the disc. We show that the tim…
A search for counterparts to massive X-ray binaries using photometric catalogues
Ignacio Negueruela, Matthew Schurch
(abridged) INTEGRAL has discovered large numbers of new hard X-ray sources, many of which are believed to be high mass X-ray binaries. However, for a significant fraction, their co…
Carbon Enhanced Metal-Poor Stars. I. Chemical Compositions of 26 Stars
Wako Aoki, Timothy C. Beers, Norbert Christlieb +3
The chemical compositions of 26 metal-poor stars that exhibit strong CH and/or C2 molecular bands are determined based on high-resolution spectroscopy. We define carbon-enhanced st…
