Relation between the luminosity of young stellar objects and their circumstellar environment
Dejan Vinkovic, Tomislav Jurkic
We present a new model-independent method of comparison of NIR visibility data of YSOs. The method is based on scaling the measured baseline with the YSO's distance and luminosity,…
Temperature inversion on the surface of externally heated optically thick multigrain dust clouds
Dejan Vinkovic
It was recently discovered that the temperature in the surface layer of externally heated optically thick gray dust clouds increases with the optical depth for some distance from t…
Thermalization of Sputtered Particles as the Source of Diffuse Radiation from High Altitude Meteors
Dejan Vinkovic
High altitude meteors become luminous at altitudes above 130 km, where the standard ablation theory of meteor light production is not applicable. The physical mechanism respo…
Near infrared and the inner regions of protoplanetary disks
Dejan Vinkovic, Zeljko Ivezic, Tomislav Jurkic +1
We examine the ``puffed-up inner disk'' model (Dullemond, Dominik & Natta 2001), proposed for explaining the near-IR excess radiation from Herbig Ae/Be stars. Detailed model comput…
Bipolar outflow on the Asymptotic Giant Branch - the case of IRC+10011
D. Vinkovic, Th. Bloecker, K. -H. Hofmann +2
Near-IR imaging of the AGB star IRC+10011 (= CIT3) reveals the presence of a bipolar structure within the central ~0.1 arcsec of a spherical dusty wind. We show that the image asym…
Evidence for bipolar jets in late stages of AGB winds
D. Vinkovic, M. Elitzur, K. -H. Hofmann +1
Bipolar expansion at various stages of evolution has been recently observed in a number of AGB stars. The expansion is driven by bipolar jets that emerge late in the evolution of A…
