Modeling the Spectral Energy Distributions and Spectropolarimetry of Blazars -- Application to 4C+01.02 in 2016-2017
Hester M. Schutte, Richard J. Britto, Markus Böttcher +7
The optical radiation emitted by blazars contains contributions from synchrotron radiation by relativistic electrons in the jets, as well as thermal radiation emitted mainly by the…
Supersoft X-ray emission from a white dwarf binary not powered by nuclear fusion
Thomas J. Maccarone, Thomas J. Nelson, Peter J. Brown +17
Supersoft X-ray sources are stellar objects which emit X-rays with temperatures of about 1 million Kelvin and luminosities well in excess of what can be produced by stellar coronae…
NGC 3105: a young open cluster with low metallicity
J. Alonso-Santiago, A. Marco, I. Negueruela +4
NGC 3105 is a young open cluster hosting blue, yellow and red supergiants. This rare combination makes it an excellent laboratory to constrain evolutionary models of high-mass star…
Optical and X-ray Properties of CAL 83: I. Quasi-periodic Optical and Supersoft Variability
A. F. Rajoelimanana, P. A. Charles, P. J. Meintjes +2
We have studied the long-term (~ years) temporal variability of the prototype supersoft X-ray source (SSS) CAL 83 in the LMC, using data from the MACHO and OGLE projects. The CAL 8…
On the impossible NGC 4372 V1 and V2: an extended AGB to the [Fe/H] = -2.2 cluster
Iain McDonald, Albert A. Zijlstra, Andry Rajoelimanana +1
The asymptotic giant branch (AGB) of the globular cluster NGC 4372 appears to extend to unexpectedly high luminosities. We show, on the basis of proper motions and spatial distribu…
A Luminous Be+White Dwarf Supersoft Source in the Wing of the SMC: MAXI J0158-744
K. L. Li, Albert Kong, P. A. Charles +8
We present a multi-wavelength analysis of the very fast X-ray transient MAXI J0158-744, which was detected by MAXI/GSC on 2011 November 11. The subsequent exponential decline of th…
Very Long-term Optical Variability of High Mass X-ray Binaries in the SMC
A. F. Rajoelimanana, P. A. Charles, A. Udalski
We have studied the very long-term temporal properties of the optical emission from Be X-ray binaries (BeX) in the Small Magellanic Cloud over a ~ 16 yr baseline, using light curve…
