29SiO and 30SiO J=1--0 maser signatures in Galactic AGB stars: the impact of third dredge up and turbulence velocity

M. O. Lewis, L. O. Sjouwerman, Y. M. Pihlström +3

J=1--0 SiO masers at 43 GHz have a well-established distinctive signature in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars. 28SiO transitions typically dominate these spectra with the v=1 an…

ATOMIUM: Inner circumstellar envelopes of oxygen-rich AGB stars as revealed by highly excited SiO lines

B. Pimpanuwat, S. Etoka, M. D. Gray +14

Silicon monoxide (SiO) traces the physical conditions and dynamics in the circumstellar envelopes (CSEs) of AGB stars. We present high-resolution ALMA Band 6 observations of highly…

Classification of Wolf Rayet stars using Ensemble-based Machine Learning algorithms

Subhajit Kar, Rajorshi Bhattacharya, Ramkrishna Das +2

We develop a robust Machine Learning classifier model utilizing the eXtreme-Gradient Boosting (XGB) algorithm for improved classification of Galactic Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars based on…

The Milky Way bar potential constrained by the kinematics of SiO maser stars in BAaDE Survey

Tian-Ye Xia, Juntai Shen, Zhi Li +5

We introduce a novel method that utilizes the longitude-velocity (l-v) envelope to constrain the Milky Way (MW) bar potential. Previous work (Habing 2016) used the l-v diagram to e…

Distance estimate method for Asymptotic Giant Branch stars using Infrared Spectral Energy Distributions

Rajorshi Bhattacharya, Brandon M. Medina, Ylva M. Pihlström +8

We present a method to estimate distances to Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars in the Galaxy, using spectral energy distributions (SEDs) in the near- and mid-infrared. By assumin…

New Near-Infrared Period-Luminosity-Metallicity Relations for Galactic RR Lyrae Stars Based on Gaia EDR3 Parallaxes

Bartłomiej Zgirski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Marek Górski +13

We present new period-luminosity and period-luminosity-metallicity relations for Galactic RR Lyrae stars based on a sample of 28 pulsators located at distances up to kpc from…

Metallicities and ages for star clusters and their surrounding fields in the Large Magellanic Cloud

W. Narloch, G. Pietrzyński, W. Gieren +15

We study 147 star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in order to determine their mean metallicities and ages, as well as the mean metallicities of 80 surrounding fields.…

An absolute calibration of the near-infrared Period-Luminosity Relations of Type II Cepheids in the Milky Way and in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Bogumił Pilecki +29

We present time-series photometry of 21 nearby Type II Cepheids in the near-infrared J, H and Ks passbands. We use this photometry, together with the Third Gaia Early Data Release…

Ground Vibrational State SiO Emission in the VLA BAaDE Survey

V. Dike, M. R. Morris, R. M. Rich +5

Using a subsample of the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution (BAaDE) survey of stellar SiO masers, we explore the prevalence and characteristics of SiO em…

Infrared color separation between thin-shelled oxygen-rich and carbon-rich AGB stars

Megan O. Lewis, Ylva M. Pihlström, Loránt O. Sjouwerman +1

We present 43 GHz VLA spectra for 51 AGB sources with the goal of verifying an infrared (IR) color cut intended to separate Carbon-rich (C) and Oxygen-rich (O) AGB sources througho…

Carbon- and Oxygen-rich Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars in the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution (BAaDE) survey

Megan O. Lewis, Ylva M. Pihlström, Loránt O. Sjouwerman +2

Detections of SiO masers from the Bulge Asymmetries and Dynamical Evolution (BAaDE) survey more tightly define the region where Oxygen-rich (O) Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars…
