Magnetic and Rotational Evolution of CrB from Asteroseismology with TESS

Travis S. Metcalfe, Jennifer L. van Saders, Sarbani Basu +15

During the first half of main-sequence lifetimes, the evolution of rotation and magnetic activity in solar-type stars appears to be strongly coupled. Recent observations suggest th…

Symbiotic Stars in the APOGEE Survey: The Case of LIN 358 and SMC N73 (LIN 445a)

Jasmin E. Washington, Hannah M. Lewis, Borja Anguiano +9

LIN 358 and SMC N73 are two symbiotic binaries in the halo of the Small Magellanic Cloud, each composed of a hot white dwarf accreting from a cool giant companion. In this work, we…
