CHARA Array Observations of the Evolved Components in Symbiotic Star Systems
Thomas Martin Gaudin, Ryan Norris, Magdalena Otulakowska-Hypka +30
The nature of the mechanisms that drive mass transfer in symbiotic stars remains an area of active research in stellar astronomy. Constraining the role that both stellar winds and…
Gravitational-Electric Polarization as a Probe of Dark Matter and Modified Gravity
Nirupam Roy
Self-gravitating astrophysical plasmas naturally achieve a state of global electrical polarization, known as the Bally-Harrison effect, where an induced electric field counteracts…
Pre-nova Observations of T CrB: A view from the CHARA Array
Ryan Norris, Narsireddy Anugu, Thomas Gaudin +38
T CrB is a symbiotic recurrent nova consisting of a red giant and white dwarf with recent eruptions in 1866 and 1946 and an anticipated eruption in the mid 2020s. We report CHARA A…
HI Observations of Baryon-Dominated Dwarf Galaxy Candidates
Atharva Mirashi, Abhinav Narayan, K. Keerthi +7
We present resolved HI observations of six dwarf galaxies drawn from a sample of baryon-dominated dwarf galaxy (BDDG) candidates previously identified using global HI spectra from…
The GMRT archive atomic gas survey -- III. Comparative Study of Dark Matter Halos in Nearby Galaxies
Sougata Sarkar, Prerana Biswas, Veselina Kalinova +3
The distribution of dark matter in the inner regions of galaxies poses a key challenge for small-scale ΛCDM cosmology. While cold dark matter simulations predict cuspy inner densit…
The vertical structure of the stellar disk in NGC 551
Harshal Raut, Narendra Nath Patra, Prerana Biswas +6
We self-consistently determine the 3D density distribution of NGC 551's stellar disk and study observational signatures of two-component stellar disks. Assuming baryonic disks are…
