A study of radial self-similar non-relativistic MHD outflow models: parameter space exploration and application to the water fountain W43A

C. Ceccobello, M. H. M. Heemskerk, Y. Cavecchi +2

Outflows, spanning a wide range of dynamical properties and spatial extensions, have now been associated with a variety of accreting astrophysical objects, from supermassive black…

A new method for extending solutions to the self-similar relativistic magnetohydrodynamics equations for black hole outflows

Chiara Ceccobello, Yuri Cavecchi, Martin H. M. Heemskerk +3

The paradigm in which magnetic fields play a crucial role in launching/collimating outflows in many astrophysical objects continues to gain support. However, semi-analytical models…

Determination of the mass of the neutron star in SMC X-1, LMC X-4 and Cen X-3 with VLT/UVES

A. van der Meer, L. Kaper, M. H. van Kerkwijk +2

We present the results of a spectroscopic monitoring campaign of the OB-star companions to the eclipsing X-ray pulsars SMC X-1, LMC X-4 and Cen X-3. High-resolution optical spectra…

Evaluation of the LEP Centre-of-Mass Energy Above the W-Pair Production Threshold

The LEP Energy Working Group

Knowledge of the centre-of-mass energy at LEP2 is of primary importance to set the absolute energy scale for the measurement of the W-boson mass. The beam energy above 80 GeV is de…

The quiescence optical light curve of Nova Scorpii 1994 (=GRO J1655-40)

Frank van der Hooft, Martin Heemskerk, Frank Alberts +1

We report on extensive V, R, and i band photometry of the black-hole candidate Nova Sco 1994 (GRO J1655-40) obtained during March 1996, when the source was close to its quiescent p…
