SS433: Observation of the circumbinary disc and extraction of the system mass
Katherine Blundell, Michael Bowler, Linda Schmidtobreick
The so-called "stationary" H-alpha line of SS433 is shown to consist of three components. A broad component is identified as emitted in that wind from the accretion disc which grow…
The Variable Star One-shot Project, and its little child: Wikimbad
C. Foellmi, T. H. Dall, J. Pritchard +21
The Variable Star One-shot Project (VSOP) aimed at providing to the world-wide stellar community the necessary one-shot spectrum of unstudied variable stars, too often classified a…
Spectroscopic search for new SW Sextantis stars in the 3-4 hour orbital period range -- I
P. Rodriguez-Gil, L. Schmidtobreick, B. T. Gaensicke
[Abridged] We report on time-resolved optical spectroscopy of ten non-eclipsing nova-like cataclysmic variables in the orbital period range between 3 and 4 hours. Of the ten system…
The bright 175um knots of the Andromeda Galaxy
L. Schmidtobreick, M. Haas, D. Lemke
Discrete far-infrared (FIR) sources of M31 are identified in the ISO 175um map and characterized via their FIR colours, luminosities and masses. With a mean size of 800pc, they pro…
