On Carbon Burning in Super Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars
R. Farmer, C. E. Fields, F. X. Timmes
We explore the detailed and broad properties of carbon burning in Super Asymptotic Giant Branch (SAGB) stars with 2755 MESA stellar evolution models. The location of first carbon i…
Constraints on explosive silicon burning in core-collapse supernovae from measured Ni/Fe ratios
A. Jerkstrand, F. X. Timmes, G. Magkotsios +7
Measurements of explosive nucleosynthesis yields in core-collapse supernovae provide tests for explosion models. We investigate constraints on explosive conditions derivable from m…
Observations of Type Ia Supernova 2014J with FLITECAM/SOFIA
William D. Vacca, Ryan T. Hamilton, Maureen Savage +9
We present medium resolution near-infrared (NIR) spectra, covering 1.1 to 3.4 microns, of the normal Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) SN 2014J in M82 obtained with the FLITECAM instrument…
The M-dwarfs in Multiples (MinMs) survey - I. Stellar multiplicity among low-mass stars within 15 pc
K. Ward-Duong, J. Patience, R. J. De Rosa +6
We present a large-scale, volume-limited companion survey of 245 late-K to mid-M (K7-M6) dwarfs within 15 pc. Infrared adaptive optics (AO) data were analysed from the Very Large T…
The Accretion of Solar Material onto White Dwarfs: No Mixing with Core Material Implies that the Mass of the White Dwarf is Increasing
Sumner Starrfield
Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) are close binary star systems with one component an accreting white dwarf (WD) and the other a larger cooler star that fills its Roche Lobe. One consequ…
The Brown-dwarf Atmosphere Monitoring (BAM) Project II: Multi-epoch monitoring of extremely cool brown dwarfs
A. Rajan, J. Patience, P. A. Wilson +6
With the discovery of Y dwarfs by the WISE mission, the population of field brown dwarfs now extends to objects with temperatures comparable to those of Solar System planets. To in…
