The close circumstellar environment of Betelgeuse - II. Diffraction-limited spectro-imaging from 7.76 to 19.50 microns with VLT/VISIR
Pierre Kervella, Guy Perrin, Andrea Chiavassa +4
Context: Mass-loss occurring in red supergiants (RSGs) is a major contributor to the enrichment of the interstellar medium in dust and molecules. The physical mechanism of this mas…
Variable turbulent convection as the cause of the Blazhko effect - testing the Stothers model
R. Smolec, P. Moskalik, K. Kolenberg +3
The amplitude and phase modulation observed in a significant fraction of the RR Lyrae variables - the Blazhko effect - represents a long-standing enigma in stellar pulsation theory…
KOI-126: A Triply-Eclipsing Hierarchical Triple with Two Low-Mass Stars
Joshua A. Carter, Daniel C. Fabrycky, Darin Ragozzine +20
The Kepler spacecraft has been monitoring the light from 150,000 stars in its primary quest to detect transiting exoplanets. Here we report on the detection of an eclipsing stellar…
Kepler photometry of the prototypical Blazhko star RR Lyr: An old friend seen in a new light
K. Kolenberg, S. Bryson, R. Szabó +18
We present our analysis of the long cadence Kepler data for the well-studied Blazhko star RR Lyr, gathered during the first two quarters of the satellite's observations and coverin…
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-…
