Magnetic White Dwarf Stars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

S. O. Kepler, Ingrid Pelisoli, Stefan Jordan +10

To obtain a better statistics on the occurrence of magnetism among white dwarfs, we searched the spectra of the hydrogen atmosphere white dwarf stars (DAs) in the Data Release 7 of…

Confronting dark energy models mimicking CDM epoch with observational constraints: future cosmological perturbations decay or future Rip?

Artyom V. Astashenok, Sergei D. Odintsov

We confront dark energy models which are currently similar to CDM theory with observational data which include the SNe data, matter density perturbations and baryon acoustic osc…

Bright radio emission from an ultraluminous stellar-mass microquasar in M31

Matthew J. Middleton, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Sera Markoff +34

A subset of ultraluminous X-ray sources (those with luminosities < 10^40 erg/s) are thought to be powered by the accretion of gas onto black holes with masses of ~5-20 M_solar, pro…

Bayesian analysis of ages, masses, and distances to cool stars with non-LTE spectroscopic parameters

Aldo Serenelli, Maria Bergemann, Gregory Ruchti +1

For studies of Galactic evolution, the accurate characterization of stars in terms of their evolutionary stage and population membership is of fundamental importance. A standard ap…
