The eclipsing novalike cataclysmic variable CRTS SSS100505 J093417-174421

R. Baptista, A. Bruch, R. Lopes de Oliveira +3

Time-resolved optical photometry, complemented by TESS data and long-term survey light curves, reveals that the transient object CRTS SSS100505 J093417-174421 is an eclipsing noval…

Starspot temperature of CoRoT-2 from multiwavelength observations with SPARC4

Adriana Valio, Eder Martioli, Andre O. Kovacs +5

Measuring starspot temperatures is crucial for understanding stellar magnetic activity, as it affects stellar brightness variations, influences exoplanet transit measurements, and…

Detection of the white-dwarf spin of V1082 Sgr

I. J. Lima, G. Tovmassian, C. V. Rodrigues +9

We report on the discovery of circular polarization modulated with a period of 1.943 +- 0.002 h in the cataclysmic variable V1082 Sgr. These findings unambiguously reveal the rotat…

SPARC4 control system

Denis Bernardes, Orlando Verducci Junior, Francisco Rodrigues +15

SPARC4 is a new astronomical instrument developed entirely by Brazilian institutions, currently installed on the 1.6-m Perkin-Elmer telescope of the Pico dos Dias Observatory. It a…

A Survey of Magnetic Field Properties in Bok Globules

Tamojeet Roychowdhury, Thushara G. S. Pillai, Claudia Vilega-Rodrigues +4

Bok globules are small, dense clouds that act as isolated precursors for the formation of single or binary stars. Although recent dust polarization surveys, primarily with Planck,…

Interstellar Polarization Survey. IV. Characterizing the magnetic field strength and turbulent dispersion using optical starlight polarization in the diffuse interstellar medium

Y. Angarita, M. J. F. Versteeg, M. Haverkorn +5

Angular dispersion functions are typically used to estimate the fluctuations in polarization angle around the mean magnetic field orientation in dense regions, such as molecular cl…

Magnetic fields in the Southern Coalsack and beyond

M. J. F. Versteeg, Y. Angarita, A. M. Magalhães +4

Starlight polarimetry, when combined with accurate distance measurements, allows for exploration of the three-dimensional structure of local magnetic fields in great detail. We pre…

Tomographic Imaging of the Sagittarius Spiral Arm's Magnetic Field Structure

Yasuo Doi, Kengo Nakamura, Koji S. Kawabata +16

The Galactic global magnetic field is thought to play a vital role in shaping Galactic structures such as spiral arms and giant molecular clouds. However, our knowledge of magnetic…

CTCV J2056-3014: An X-ray-faint Intermediate Polar Harboring An Extremely Fast-spinning White Dwarf

Raimundo Lopes de Oliveira, Albert Bruch, . Claudia Vilega Rodrigues +3

We report on XMM-Newton X-ray observations that reveal CTCV J2056-3014 to be an unusual accretion-powered, intermediate polar (IP) system. It is a member of the class of X-ray-fain…
