Interstellar extinction of classical Cepheids from neighboring stars I. Methodology and application to 16 Galactic Cepheids
Wilma Kiviaho, Pierre Kervella, Mika Juvela +21
Galactic Cepheid variable stars are fundamental calibrators of the cosmic distance scale through their Period-Luminosity (PL) relation. The high-precision parallaxes expected from…
HALO II: Constraining Hubble constant through continuum delay fitting of Fairall 9
Amit Kumar Mandal, Francisco Pozo Nuñez, Vikram Kumar Jaiswal +28
The Hubble tension remains one of the most significant unresolved problems in modern cosmology. A key question is whether it may arise from underestimated systematic uncertainties…
No country for old stars -Spectroscopic confirmation of the first intermediate-age RR Lyrae in the open cluster Trumpler 5
Valentina D'Orazi, Cecilia Mateu, Giuliano Iorio +13
RR Lyrae stars are widely considered tracers of ancient (greater than 10 Gyr), metal-poor stellar populations. However, recent kinematic and photometric studies suggest the existen…
Finding the elusive RR Lyrae companions via speckle imaging
R. Salinas, V. Kalari, G. Hajdu +25
Despite their key role in astrophysics, the binary properties of RR Lyrae stars (RRL) remain almost completely unknown since only a single RRL is confirmed as belonging to a binary…
Period-Luminosity Relations, projection factor and radii of Anomalous Cepheids
Piotr Wielgórski, Grzegorz Pietrzyński, Wolfgang Gieren +24
Anomalous Cepheids are radially pulsating stars observed in dwarf galaxies, the Galactic bulge and halo, and globular clusters. Similarly to other radially pulsating stars, they ca…
Multiple outflows and delayed ejections revealed by early imaging of novae
Elias Aydi, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +39
Novae are thermonuclear eruptions on accreting white dwarfs in interacting binaries. Although most of the accreted envelope is expelled, the mechanism -- impulsive ejection, multip…
A search for Be stars in multiple systems within the solar neighborhood
V. M. Kalari, R. Salinas, C. Saez-Carvajal +9
Be stars are widely considered to be the product of binary interaction. However, whether all Be stars are formed via binary interaction is unclear, and detailed estimates of the mu…
Discovery of metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence candidates in WLM with JWST
Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Morten Andersen +4
We present the discovery of twelve metal-poor and distant pre-main sequence (PMS) candidates in the dwarf irregular galaxy Wolf-Lundmark-Melotte (WLM)~968 kpc away, at a present-da…
Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) at Gemini-South: Instrument performance and integration, first science, and next steps
V. M. Kalari, R. J. Diaz, G. Robertson +57
The Gemini South telescope is now equipped with a new high-resolution spectrograph called GHOST (the Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph). This instrument provides high-eff…
A high-resolution imaging survey of massive young stellar objects in the Magellanic Clouds
Venu M. Kalari, Ricardo Salinas, Hans Zinnecker +3
Constraints on the binary fraction of young massive stellar objects (mYSOs) are important for binary and massive star formation theory. Here, we present speckle imaging of 34 mYSOs…
GHOST Commissioning Science Results III: Characterizing an iron-poor damped Lyman system
Trystyn A. M. Berg, Christian R. Hayes, Stefano Cristiani +20
The Gemini High-resolution Optical SpecTrograph (GHOST) is a new echelle spectrograph available on the Gemini-South telescope as of Semester 2024A. We present the first high resolu…
A sub-solar metallicity on the ultra-short period planet HIP 65Ab
Luc Bazinet, Stefan Pelletier, Björn Benneke +2
Studying and understanding the physical and chemical processes that govern hot Jupiters gives us insights on the formation of these giant planets. Having a constraint on the molecu…
