The Hydrodynamic Origin of Neutron Star Kicks
J. Nordhaus, T. Brandt, A. Burrows +1
We present results from a suite of axisymmetric, core-collapse supernova simulations in which hydrodynamic recoil from an asymmetric explosion produces large proto-neutron star (PN…
The Dust Properties of Two Hot R Coronae Borealis Stars and a Wolf-Rayet Central Star of a Planetary Nebula: in Search of a Possible Link
Geoffrey C. Clayton, O. De Marco, B. A. Whitney +14
We present new Spitzer/IRS spectra of two hot R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars, one in the Galaxy,V348 Sgr, and one lying in the LMC, HV 2671. These two objects may constitute a link…
VLTI observations of the dust geometry around R Coronae Borealis stars
S. N. Bright, O. Chesneau, G. C. Clayton +4
We are investigating the formation and evolution of dust around the hydrogen-deficient supergiants known as R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars. We aim to determine the connection betwe…
Towards a New Prescription for the Tidal Capture of Planets, Brown Dwarfs and Stellar Companions
N. Madappatt Alikutty, O. De Marco, J. Nordhaus +1
We study the evolution of the orbit of a planetary companion as the primary star evolves during the red giant branch phase. Our aim is to determine a prescription for the capture r…
