Understanding B-type Supergiants in the Low Metallicity Environment of the SMC

C. Trundle, D. J. Lennon, J. Puls +1

Spectroscopic analyses of 7 SMC B-type supergiants and 1 giant have been undertaken using high resolution optical data obtained on the VLT with UVES. FASTWIND, a non-LTE, spherical…

The H alpha Galaxy Survey I. The galaxy sample, H alpha narrow-band observations and star formation parameters for 334 galaxies

P. A. James, N. S. Shane, J. E. Beckman +12

We discuss the selection and observations of a large sample of nearby galaxies, which we are using to quantify the star formation activity in the local Universe. The sample consist…

Grain Size Distributions and Photo-Electric Heating in Ionized Regions

P. A. M. van Hoof, J. C. Weingartner, P. G. Martin +2

In this paper we present results obtained with the new grain code in Cloudy which underline the strong effect of photo-electric heating by grains in photo-ionized regions. We study…

The Post-Agb Star IRAS 16594-4656

Griet C. Van de Steene, Peter A. M. van Hoof

We present the basic properties of the multipolar post-AGB star IRAS 16594-4656, and discuss in particular its near infrared spectrum which shows shock excited H2 and [Fe II] emiss…

Introducing EMILI: Computer Aided Emission Line Identification

Brian Sharpee, Robert Williams, Jack A. Baldwin +1

The identification of spectral lines can be a tedious process requiring the interrogation of large spectroscopic databases, but it does lend itself to software algorithms that can…

Shock emission in the bipolar post-AGB star IRAS 16594-4656

G. C. Van de Steene, P. A. M. van Hoof

In this paper we study the near-infrared emission spectrum of IRAS 16594-4656, a bipolar post-AGB star with spectral type B7 and no observed ionization. Using optical and near-infr…

Eclipse observations of high-frequency oscillations in active region coronal loops

A. C. Katsiyannis, D. R. Williams, R. T. J. McAteer +3

One of the mechanisms proposed for heating the corona above solar active regions is the damping of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves. Continuing on previous work, we provide observat…

The Local Group Census: planetary nebulae in IC 10, Leo A and Sextans A

L. Magrini, R. L. M. Corradi, R. Greimel +8

In the framework of our narrow-band survey of the Local Group galaxies, we present the results of the search for planetary nebulae (PNe) in the dwarf irregular galaxies IC10, LeoA…

Brown dwarfs and low-mass stars in the Pleiades and Praesepe:- Membership and binarity

D. J. Pinfield, P. D. Dobbie, R. F. Jameson +3

We present near infrared J-, H- and K-band photometry and optical spectroscopy of low-mass star and brown dwarf (BD) candidates in the Pleiades and Praesepe open clusters. We find…
