SOFIA/FORCAST Monitoring of the Dust Emission from R Aqr: Start of the Eclipse

Ravi Sankrit, Eric Omelian, Uma Gorti +3

We present mid-infrared spectra from our continued monitoring of R Aquarii, the nearest symbiotic Mira, using the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA). New phot…

Synchronous Satellites of Venus

Anthony R. Dobrovolskis, Jose Luis Alvarellos

Synchronous satellites of Venus have long been thought unstable, but we use Poincare's surface of section technique to show that synchronous quasi-satellites orbiting just outside…

Families and Clusters of Diffuse Interstellar Bands: a Data-Driven Correlation Analysis

Haoyu Fan, Madison Schwartz, Amin Farhang +9

More than 500 diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) have been observed in astronomical spectra, and their signatures and correlations in different environments have been studied over t…

Ionized carbon around IRC +10216

William T. Reach, Maxime Ruaud, Helmut Wiesemeyer +5

Asymptotic giant branch (AGB)stars create a rich inventory of molecules in their envelopes as they lose mass during later stages of their evolution. These molecules cannot survive…
