Multi-Wavelength Study of the 2008-2009 Outburst of V1647 Ori
D. Garcia-Alvarez, N. J. Wright, J. J. Drake +11
V1647 Ori is a young eruptive variable star, illuminating a reflection nebula (McNeil's Nebula). It underwent an outburst in 2003 before fading back to its pre-outburst brightness…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey III: A very massive star in apparent isolation from the massive cluster R136
Joachim M. Bestenlehner, Jorick S. Vink, G. Gräfener +17
VFTS 682 is located in an active star-forming region, at a projected distance of 29 pc from the young massive cluster R136 in the Tarantula Nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud. It…
Warm water vapour in the sooty outflow from a luminous carbon star
L. Decin, M. Agundez, M. J. Barlow +34
In 2001, the discovery of circumstellar water vapour around the ageing carbon star IRC+10216 was announced. This detection challenged the current understanding of chemistry in old…
The Intermediate-mass Young Stellar Object 08576nr292: Discovery of a disk-jet system
Lucas E. Ellerbroek, Lex Kaper, Arjan Bik +5
We present observations of the embedded massive young stellar object (YSO) candidate 08576nr292, obtained with X-shooter and SINFONI on the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT). The flux…
Optical spectroscopic variability of Herbig Ae/Be stars
I. Mendigutía, C. Eiroa, B. Montesinos +4
We analysed 337 multi-epoch optical spectra of 38 Herbig Ae/Be (HAeBe) stars to gain insights into the variability behaviour of the circumstellar (CS) atomic gas. Equivalent widths…
Direct Imaging of Fine Structures in Giant Planet Forming Regions of the Protoplanetary Disk around AB Aurigae
J. Hashimoto, M. Tamura, T. Muto +49
We report high-resolution 1.6 $\micron$ polarized intensity () images of the circumstellar disk around the Herbig Ae star AB Aur at a radial distance of 22 AU () up to 5…
