Type Iax Supernovae: A New Class of Stellar Explosion

Ryan J. Foley, P. J. Challis, R. Chornock +19

We describe observed properties of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe Iax), consisting of SNe observationally similar to its prototypical member, SN 2002cx. The class currently…

Hydrodynamic Studies of the Evolution of Recurrent, Symbiotic, and Dwarf Novae: The White Dwarf Components are Growing in Mass

S. Starrfield, F. X. Timmes, C. Iliadis +4

Symbiotic binaries are systems containing white dwarfs (WDs) and red giants. Symbiotic novae are those systems in which thermonuclear eruptions occur on the WD components. These ar…

Nucleosynthesis in Type I X-ray Bursts

A. Parikh, J. José, G. Sala +1

Type I X-ray bursts are thermonuclear explosions that occur in the envelopes of accreting neutron stars. Detailed observations of these phenomena have prompted numerous studies in…

Nuclear Thermometers for Classical Novae

Lori N. Downen, Christian Iliadis, Jordi José +1

Classical novae are stellar explosions occurring in binary systems, consisting of a white dwarf and a main sequence companion. Thermonuclear runaways on the surface of massive whit…

EC 10246-2707: a new eclipsing sdB + M dwarf binary

B. N. Barlow, D. Kilkenny, H. Drechsel +10

We announce the discovery of a new eclipsing hot subdwarf B + M dwarf binary, EC 10246-2707, and present multi-colour photometric and spectroscopic observations of this system. Sim…

Interacting Supernovae and Supernova Impostors. SN 2009ip, is this the end?

A. Pastorello, E. Cappellaro, C. Inserra +41

We report the results of a 3 year-long dedicated monitoring campaign of a restless Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) in NGC 7259. The object, named SN 2009ip, was observed photometrical…

MUCHFUSS - Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS

S. Geier, V. Schaffenroth, H. Hirsch +15

The project Massive Unseen Companions to Hot Faint Underluminous Stars from SDSS (MUCHFUSS) aims at finding hot subdwarf stars with massive compact companions (white dwarfs with ma…

Reaction rates for the s-process neutron source 22Ne+α

Richard Longland, Christian Iliadis, Amanda I. Karakas

The 22Ne(α,n)25Mg reaction is an important source of neutrons for the s-process. In massive stars responsible for the weak component of the s-process, 22Ne(α,n)25Mg is the dominant…

Discovery of two new Galactic candidate luminous blue variables with WISE

V. V. Gvaramadze, A. Y. Kniazev, A. S. Miroshnichenko +28

We report the discovery of two new Galactic candidate luminous blue variable (cLBV) stars via detection of circular shells (typical of known confirmed and cLBVs) and follow-up spec…
