Long-term photometric behavior of the PMS stars V977 Cep and V982 Cep in the vicinity of NGC 7129
Sunay I. Ibryamov, Evgeni H. Semkov, Teodor R. Milanov +1
Long-term BVRI photometric light curves of the pre-main sequence stars V977 Cep and V982 Cep during the period from 2000 October to 2016 August are presented. The stars are located…
A collimated wind interpretation for the spectral variability of Z And during its major 2006 eruption
N. A. Tomov, M. T. Tomova, D. V. Bisikalo
High-resolution observations in the region, centered at 4400 Å and those of the lines HeII 4686, Hbeta and HeI 6678 of the spectrum of the symbiotic binary Z And were performed dur…
Return of the King: Time-Series Photometry of FO Aquarii's Initial Recovery from its Unprecedented 2016 Low State
Colin Littlefield, Peter Garnavich, Mark R. Kennedy +28
In 2016 May, the intermediate polar FO~Aqr was detected in a low state for the first time in its observational history. We report time-resolved photometry of the system during its…
Chandra View of Magnetically Confined Wind in HD191612: Theory versus Observations
Yael Naze, Asif ud-Doula, Svetozar A. Zhekov
High-resolution spectra of the magnetic star HD191612 were acquired using the Chandra X-ray observatory at both maximum and minimum emission phases. We confirm the flux and hardnes…
AG Pegasi - now a classical symbiotic star in outburst?
T. V. Tomov, K. A. Stoyanov, R. K. Zamanov
Optical spectroscopy study of the recent AG Peg outburst observed during the second half of 2015 is presented. Considerable variations of the intensity and the shape of the spectra…
Active phases and flickering of a symbiotic recurrent nova T CrB
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Joanna Mikolajewska, Kiril Stoyanov +2
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova known to exhibit active phases, characterised by apparent increases in the hot component temperature and the appearance of flickering, i.e. chan…
The B and Be States of the Star EM Cepheus
Diana Kjurkchieva, Dragomir Marchev, T. A. A. Sigut +1
We present eleven years of high-resolution, spectroscopic observations for the star EM~Cep. EM~Cep switches between B and Be star states, as revealed by the level of H emission,…
Recent X-Recent X-ray observations of the symbiotic star AG Peg: do they signify Colliding Stellar Winds?
Svetozar A. Zhekov, Toma Tomov
We present an analysis of recent X-ray observations of the symbiotic star AG Peg. The X-ray emission of AG Peg as observed with Swift in 2015 shows considerable variability on time…
Discovery of a complex linearly polarized spectrum of Betelgeuse dominated by depolarization of the continuum
M. Aurière, A. López Ariste, P. Mathias +15
Betelgeuse is an M supergiant that harbors spots and giant granules at its surface and presents linear polarization of its continuum. We have previously discovered linear polarizat…
Homologous prominence non-radial eruptions: A case study
P. Duchlev, K. Koleva, M. S. Madjarska +1
The present study provides important details on homologous eruptions of a solar prominence that occurred in active region NOAA 10904 on 2006 August 22. We report on the preeruptive…
