The 12C + 12C reaction and the impact on nucleosynthesis in massive stars
M. Pignatari, R. Hirschi, M. Wiescher +7
Despite much effort in the past decades, the C-burning reaction rate is uncertain by several orders of magnitude, and the relative strength between the different channels 12C(12C,a…
A lower radius and mass for the transiting extrasolar planet HAT-P-8b
L. Mancini, J. Southworth, S. Ciceri +10
Context. The extrasolar planet HAT-P-8 b was thought to be one of the more inflated transiting hot Jupiters. Aims. By using new and existing photometric data, we computed precise e…
MOA-2010-BLG-073L: An M-Dwarf with a Substellar Companion at the Planet/Brown Dwarf Boundary
R. A. Street, J. -Y. Choi, Y. Tsapras +129
We present an analysis of the anomalous microlensing event, MOA-2010-BLG-073, announced by the Microlensing Observations in Astrophysics survey on 2010-03-18. This event was remark…
Carbonate Formation in Non-Aqueous Environments by Solid-Gas Carbonation of Silicates
S. J. Day, S. P. Thompson, A. Evans +1
We have produced synthetic analogues of cosmic silicates using the Sol Gel method, producing amorphous silicates of composition Mg(x)Ca(1-x)SiO3. Using synchrotron X-ray powder dif…
Unification of X-ray winds in Seyfert galaxies: from ultra-fast outflows to warm absorbers
F. Tombesi, M. Cappi, J. N. Reeves +4
The existence of ionized X-ray absorbing layers of gas along the line of sight to the nuclei of Seyfert galaxies is a well established observational fact. This material is systemat…
An extremely high photometric precision in ground-based observations of two transits in the WASP-50 planetary system
Jeremy Tregloan-Reed, John Southworth
We present photometric observations of two transits in the WASP-50 planetary system, obtained using the ESO New Technology Telescope and the defocussed-photometry technique. The rm…
