A Comprehensive Study of the Dust Declines in R Coronae Borealis Stars
Courtney L. Crawford, Jamie Soon, Geoffrey C. Clayton +4
The R Coronae Borealis (RCB) variables are rare, hydrogen-deficient, carbon-rich supergiants known for large, erratic declines in brightness due to dust formation. Recently, the nu…
Oxygen Isotope Ratios in Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon Stars: A Correlation with Effective Temperature and Implications for White Dwarf Merger Outcomes
Advait Mehla, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Viraj Karambelkar +5
Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (HdC) stars are a class of supergiants with anomalous chemical compositions, suggesting that they are remnants of CO-He white dwarf (WD) mergers. This cla…
Modelling Hydrogen-deficient Carbon stars in MESA -- The effects of total mass and mass ratio
Courtney L. Crawford, Nikita Nikultsev, Geoffrey C. Clayton +3
Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (HdC) stars are rare, low-mass, chemically peculiar, supergiant variables believed to be formed by a double white dwarf (DWD) merger, specifically of a Ca…
Hydrodynamic simulations of WD-WD mergers and the origin of RCB stars
Sagiv Shiber, Orsola De Marco, Patrick M. Motl +10
We study the properties of double white dwarf (DWD) mergers by performing hydrodynamic simulations using the new and improved adaptive mesh refinement code Octo-Tiger. We follow th…
R Coronae Borealis and dustless Hydrogen-deficient Carbon stars have different oxygen isotope ratios
Viraj Karambelkar, Mansi Kasliwal, Patrick Tisserand +5
R Coronae Borealis (RCB) and dustless Hydrogen-deficient Carbon (dLHdC) stars are believed to be remnants of low mass white dwarf mergers. These supergiant stars have peculiar hydr…
Peculiar Hydrogen-deficient Carbon Stars: Strontium-Rich Stars and the s-Process
Courtney L. Crawford, Patrick Tisserand, Geoffrey C. Clayton +1
Context: R Coronae Borealis (RCB) variables and their non-variable counterparts, the dustless Hydrogen-Deficient Carbon (dLHdC) stars have been known to exhibit enhanced s-processe…
Tracking down R Coronae Borealis stars using the WISE All-Sky survey
P. Tisserand, G. C. Clayton, D. L. Welch
R Coronae Borealis stars (RCBs) are the best candidates to be the products of white dwarf mergers in the intermediate mass range ( M). After a merger, a…
The ongoing pursuit of R Coronae Borealis stars: ASAS-3 survey strikes again
P. Tisserand, G. C. Clayton, D. L. Welch +3
R Coronae Borealis stars (RCBs) are rare, hydrogen-deficient, carbon-rich supergiant variable stars that are likely the evolved merger products of pairs of CO and He white dwarfs.…
