A new imprint of fast rotators: low 12C/13C ratios in extremely metal-poor halo stars
C. Chiappini, S. Ekström, G. Meynet +3
(abridged) Fast stellar rotation is currently the most promising mechanism for producing primary nitrogen in metal-poor massive stars. Chemical evolution models computed with the i…
Observational constraints on AGB mass loss and its effect on AGB evolution
Jacco Th. van Loon
This review discusses some of the observational constraints on what we know about the mass loss experienced by stars in the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase of evolution. Mass l…
Disc-Magnetosphere interactions in Cataclysmic Variable Stars
Coel Hellier
I review, from an observational perspective, the interactions of accretion discs with magnetic fields in cataclysmic variable stars. I start with systems where the accretion flows…
Dipolar excitations at the LIII x-ray absorption edges of the heavy rare earth metals
S. D. Brown, P. Strange, L. Bouchenoire +10
We report measured dipolar asymmetry ratios at the LIII edges of the heavy rare earth metals. The results are compared with a first principles calculation and excellent agreement i…
SuperWASP-N Extra-solar Planet Candidates from Fields 06hr < RA < 16hr
S. R. Kane, W. I. Clarkson, R. G. West +21
The Wide Angle Search for Planets (WASP) survey currently operates two installations, designated SuperWASP-N and SuperWASP-S, located in the northern and southern hemispheres respe…
Low-Mass X-ray Binaries and Globular Clusters in Centaurus A
Andres Jordan, Gregory R. Sivakoff, Dean E. McLaughlin +19
We present results of Hubble Space Telescope and Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of globular clusters (GCs) and low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the central regions of Cen…
