Getting Its Kicks: A VLBA Parallax for the Hyperfast Pulsar B1508+55
S. Chatterjee, W. H. T. Vlemmings, W. F. Brisken +7
The highest velocity neutron stars establish stringent constraints on natal kicks, asymmetries in supernova core collapse, and the evolution of close binary systems. Here we presen…
Magnetic fields around late-type stars using water maser observations
W. H. T. Vlemmings, H. J. van Langevelde, P. J. Diamond
We present the analysis of the circular polarization, due to Zeeman splitting, of the water masers around a sample of late-type stars to determine the magnetic fields in their circ…
MERLIN monitoring of recent core-collapse supernovae
Megan Argo, Rob Beswick, Tom Muxlow +3
The star formation rate (SFR) in starburst galaxies can be measured by many methods, one of which is through the supernova rate. Due to the heavy dust obscuration in these galaxies…
Determination of stellar shape in microlensing event MOA 2002-BLG-33
N. J. Rattenbury, F. Abe, D. P. Bennett +30
We report a measurement of the shape of the source star in microlensing event MOA 2002-BLG-33. The lens for this event was a close binary whose centre-of-mass passed almost directl…
The global kinematics of the Dumbbell planetary nebula (NGC 6853, M27, PN G060.8-03.6)
J. Meaburn, P. Boumis, P. E. Christopoulou +3
Spatially resolved profiles of the HeII 6560 A, Halpha and [N II] 6548 & 6584 A nebular emission lines have been obtained in two orthogonal long cuts over the Dumbbell planetary ne…
Neutral hydrogen absorption at milliarcsecond resolutions: The radio galaxy 3C293
R. J. Beswick, A. B. Peck, G. B. Taylor +2
We present new milliarcsecond resolution observations of the H1 absorption against the kiloparsec scale inner jet of the radio galaxy 3C293. Using a combination of observations obt…
