Using long-term millisecond pulsar timing to obtain physical characteristics of the bulge globular cluster Terzan 5

Brian Prager, Scott Ransom, Paulo Freire +4

Over the past decade the discovery of three unique stellar populations and a large number of confirmed pulsars within the globular cluster Terzan 5 has raised questions over its cl…

Chemical Abundances of M-dwarfs from the APOGEE Survey. I. The Exoplanet Hosting Stars Kepler-138 and Kepler-186

Diogo Souto, Katia Cunha, D. A. Garcia-Hernandez +18

We report the first detailed chemical abundance analysis of the exoplanet-hosting M-dwarf stars Kepler-138 and Kepler-186 from the analysis of high-resolution ( 22,500) $…

Testing the formation scenarios of binary neutron star systems with measurements of the neutron star moment of inertia

William G. Newton, Andrew W. Steiner, Kent Yagi

Two low mass neutron stars, J0737-3039B and the companion to J1756-2251, show strong evidence of being formed from the collapse of an ONeMg core in an electron capture supernova (E…

The ALMA-PILS survey: First detections of ethylene oxide, acetone and propanal toward the low-mass protostar IRAS 16293-2422

J. M. Lykke, A. Coutens, J. K. Jørgensen +14

One of the open questions in astrochemistry is how complex organic and prebiotic molecules are formed. Aims. Our aim is to start the process of compiling an inventory of oxygen-bea…

A Triple Protostar System Formed via Fragmentation of a Gravitationally Unstable Disk

John Tobin, Kaitlin Kratter, Magnus Persson +9

Binary and multiple star systems are a frequent outcome of the star formation process, and as a result, almost half of all sun-like stars have at least one companion star. Theoreti…

The Complex Circumstellar and Circumbinary Environment of V356 Sgr

Jamie R. Lomax, Andrew G. Fullard, Michael A. Malatesta +13

We analyze 45 spectropolarimetric observations of the eclipsing, interacting binary star V356 Sgr, obtained over a period of 21 years, to characterize the geometry of the system's…
