The Highest Resolution Chandra View of Photoionization and Jet-Cloud Interaction in the Nuclear Region of NGC 4151
Junfeng Wang, G. Fabbiano, M. Karovska +4
We report high resolution imaging of the nucleus of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 obtained with a 50 ks Chandra HRC observation. The HRC image resolves the emission on spatial scal…
Numerical Simulations of Wind Accretion in Symbiotic Binaries
M. de Val-Borro, M. Karovska, D. Sasselov
We study the dynamical effects of gravitational focusing by a binary companion on winds from late-type stars. In particular, we investigate the mass transfer and formation of accre…
Active Galactic Nuclei and their role in Galaxy Formation and Evolution
Steve Kraemer, Rogier Windhorst, Kenneth G. Carpenter +3
There are several key open questions as to the nature and origin of AGN including: 1) what initiates the active phase, 2) the duration of the active phase, and 3) the effect of the…
Mass Transport Processes and their Roles in the Formation, Structure, and Evolution of Stars and Stellar Systems
Kenneth G. Carpenter, Margarita Karovska, Carolus J. Schrijver +15
We summarize some of the compelling new scientific opportunities for understanding stars and stellar systems that can be enabled by sub-mas angular resolution, UV/Optical spectral…
Long-Period Variability in o Ceti
Matthew R. Templeton, Margarita Karovska
We carried out a new and sensitive search for long-period variability in the prototype of the Mira class of long-period pulsating variables, o Ceti (Mira A), the closest and bright…
Quantifying Stellar Mass Loss with High Angular Resolution Imaging
Stephen Ridgway, Jason Aufdenberg, Michelle Creech-Eakman +7
Mass is constantly being recycled in the universe. One of the most powerful recycling paths is via stellar mass-loss. All stars exhibit mass loss with rates ranging from ~10(-14) t…
