A magnetic massive star has experienced a stellar merger
A. J. Frost, H. Sana, L. Mahy +13
Massive stars (those larger than 8 solar masses at formation) have radiative envelopes that cannot sustain a dynamo, the mechanism that produces magnetic fields in lower-mass stars…
Discovery and Observations of ASASSN-13db, an EX Lupi-Type Accretion Event on a Low-Mass T Tauri Star
Thomas W. -S. Holoien, Jose L. Prieto, Krzysztof Z. Stanek +19
We discuss ASASSN-13db, an EX Lupi-type ("EXor") accretion event on the young stellar object (YSO) SDSS J051011.01032826.2 (hereafter SDSSJ0510) discovered by the All-Sky Automa…
SN 2009N: Linking normal and subluminous type II-P SNe
K. Takáts, M. L. Pumo, N. Elias-Rosa +31
We present ultraviolet, optical, near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy of SN 2009N in NGC 4487. This object is a type II-P supernova with spectra resembling those of subluminou…
Type Iax Supernovae: A New Class of Stellar Explosion
Ryan J. Foley, P. J. Challis, R. Chornock +19
We describe observed properties of the Type Iax class of supernovae (SNe Iax), consisting of SNe observationally similar to its prototypical member, SN 2002cx. The class currently…
