A cosmic abundance standard: chemical homogeneity of the solar neighbourhood and the ISM dust-phase composition
Norbert Przybilla, Maria-Fernanda Nieva, Keith Butler
A representative sample of unevolved early B-type stars in nearby OB associations and the field is analysed to unprecedented precision using NLTE techniques. The resulting chemical…
Pulse phase resolved analysis of the HMXB Cen X-3 over two binary orbits
S. Suchy, K. Pottschmidt, J. Wilms +7
We present a detailed analysis of observations of the high mass X-ray binary Cen X-3 spanning two consecutive binary orbits performed with the RXTE satellite in early March 1997. T…
Exciting new features in the frequency spectrum of the EC14026 star HS0702+6043 - Simultaneous g-modes and p-modes in a sdB pulsator
S. Schuh, J. Huber, S. Dreizler +7
The discovery of a long-period g-mode oscillation in the previously known short-period p-mode sdB pulsator HS0702+6043 makes this star an extraordinary object, unique as a member o…
The near-synchronous polar V1432 Aql (RX J1940.1-1025): Accretion geometry and synchronization time scale
R. Staubert, S. Friedrich, K. Pottschmidt +5
The magnetic Cataclysmic Variable (mCV) V1432 Aql (RX 1940.1-1025) belongs to the four-member subclass of near-synchronous polars with a slight non-synchronism (<2 %) between the s…
A new two-pole accretion polar: RX J1846.9+5538
R. Schwarz, J. Greiner, G. H. Tovmassian +2
We report the discovery of a new, bright (V = 17 mag) AM Her system as the optical counterpart of the soft ROSAT All-Sky-Survey source RX J1846.9+5538 (= 1RXS J184659.4+553834). Op…
Saving Astronomical Treasures
Noah Brosch, Rene Hudec, Peter Kroll +1
The time domain is under-exploited in an astrophysical context, because the large photographic plate collections are almost never consulted by young astronomers. This is a result o…
