VLBI astrometry of radio stars to link radio and optical celestial reference frames - II. 11 radio stars

Jingdong Zhang, Bo Zhang, Shuangjing Xu +10

The alignment between the radio-based International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF) and the optical Gaia Celestial Reference Frame (Gaia-CRF) is critical for multi-waveband astron…

The orbital period of the long-period and colliding-wind binary WR 146 from radio interferometry of the shock cone

Shiming Wen, Bo Zhang, Shuangjing Xu +8

We report the first measurement of the orbital period of a long-period colliding-wind binary (CWB) system WR 146, derived by tracing the rotational morphology of its wind-colliding…

A VLBA Trigonometric Parallax for RR Aql and the Mira PL Relation

Yan Sun, Bo Zhang, Mark J. Reid +4

We report VLBA observations of 22 GHz HO and 43 GHz SiO masers toward the Mira variable RR Aql. By fitting the SiO maser emission to a circular ring, we estimate the absolute…
