HD 120678: a classical Be star with a tilting heartbeat disk

Dietrich Baade, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz, Thomas Rivinius

Classical Oe/Be/Ae stars possess Keplerian circum-equatorial decretion disks which produce not just the eponymous emission lines but also the bewildering diversity of photometric v…

Results from the first spectropolarimetric survey of Dor pulsators

J. Labadie-Bartz, R. Ouazzani, C. Neiner +8

Context. Magnetic fields can have an important influence on stellar structure and evolution. In intermediate-mass (A- and F-type) stars, there are many known stars with directly me…

The birth of Be star disks III. SPH models of localised mass ejections

A. C. Rubio, A. C. Carciofi, D. Baade +4

Classical Be stars exhibit mass ejection events that feed their viscous decretion disks. Recent TESS space photometry and simultaneous spectroscopy revealed that these flickers are…

Wildly Oscillating Stars -- Unexplained dense ridge-like frequency agglomerations in A and F type pulsators

V. Antoci, J. Labadie-Bartz, M. Swiech +14

We investigate the origin of the dense, ridge-like frequency clusters observed in a subset of A and F type pulsating stars, which we refer to as `wildly oscillating' stars (WOS). T…

Near-core magnetic field strengths inferred from gravity modes in intermediate-mass stars

Oliver Durfeldt-Pedros, Victoria Antoci, Daniel Lecoanet +2

In this work, we derive upper limits for the strength of the near-core magnetic field in intermediate-mass stars, since high-order g-modes can be fully suppressed by a critical mag…

Determining the incidence rate of magnetic Scuti candidates with CoRoT

Gautam Paul, Coralie Neiner, Claude Catala +1

Scuti stars are pulsating stars constituting the Scuti instability strip in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram, which consists of A and F stars. They are in the transitio…

Configuration of the Tau system constrained by multi-technique observations

M. Brož, P. Doležal, D. Vokrouhlický +8

Tau is one of the most compact multiple stellar systems, which is sufficiently close (67 pc) to be constrained by all kinds of observations. To better constrain its current con…

Expanding stellar horizons with polarized light

J. Vandersnickt, R. Ochoa Armenta, V. Vanlaer +16

The polarization of light is a critically under-utilized, rich source of information in astronomy. For stars in particular, surface magnetism polarization that can be detected and…

Exploring the binary origin of B and Be rapid rotators

Jonathan Labadie-Bartz, Mark Suffak, Carol Jones +8

Observational evidence has continued to mount that a significant fraction of rapidly rotating early-B type stars are products of binary mass transfer. However, very few mid- and la…

The Birth of Be Star Disks II. A High-Resolution Spectroscopic Campaign and TESS Observations of an Outburst of the Classical Be star λ Pavonis

Sola S. Nova, Noel D. Richardson, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +1

Be stars are rapidly-rotating B stars that have shown emission lines originating in a circumstellar disk. The mechanisms that lead to disk formation and dissipation are not known a…

The Triple System V1371 Tau: An Eclipsing Binary with an Outer Be Star

Danilo F. Rocha, Marcelo Emilio, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +10

Although triple systems are common, their orbital dynamics and stellar evolution remain poorly understood. We investigated the V1371 Tau system using TESS photometry, multi-epoch s…

A family of binaries with an extreme mass ratio

Yael Naze, Gregor Rauw, Piotr A. Kolaczek-Szymanski +2

Multiplicity is ubiquitous among massive stars. While the stellar components usually display similar masses, some binaries with extremely low mass ratios were also observed. Some o…

Predicted observational effects of rapid rotation for Be stars

Rina G. Rast, Carol E. Jones, Mark W. Suffak +6

We conduct a systematic study on the effects of rapid rotation on predicted Be star observables. We use the three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer code, \textsc{hdust}, t…

Discovery of new magnetic δ Scuti stars and impact of magnetism on pulsation excitation

K. Thomson-Paressant, C. Neiner, J. Labadie-Bartz +3

Context. At this time, the list of known magnetic δ Scuti stars is extremely limited, with only a handful of well-studied examples. Aims. We seek to expand this list, by retrieving…

High energy emission powered by accreting companions of Be/gamma Cas stars

Rina G. Rast, Yael Naze, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +6

The origin of the hard, bright X-ray emission that defines the gamma Cas analog class of Be stars remains an outstanding question in Be star literature. This work explores the poss…

X-Raying a Be star disk: fundamental parameters of the eclipsing binary Be star V658 Car

Tajan H. de Amorim, Alex C. Carciofi, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +8

With its two stellar eclipses and two disk attenuations per binary orbit, V658 Carinae stands out as the first clear eclipsing Be + sdOB system. This rare alignment offers a unique…

Spectroscopic orbit and variability of the Be star V1624 Cyg = 28 Cyg

P. Harmanec, S. Yang, P. Koubský +8

In recent years the idea, first formulated many decades ago, that the Be phenomenon could be causally related to the duplicity of Be stars, has been repeatedly reconsidered from va…

Discovery of the binary nature of the magnetospheric B-type star Oph A

M. E. Shultz, I. Berry, D. Bohlender +11

The nearby B-type star Oph A was recently identified as a rapidly rotating magnetic B-type star with variable radio and X-ray emission consistent with a magnetospheric origin.…
