Anti-Solar Differential Rotation May Have Revived Magnetic Braking in the Subgiant 31 Aquilae
Travis S. Metcalfe, Jennifer L. van Saders, Thomas R. Ayres +16
Recent observations have shown that sufficiently slow rotation disrupts the organization of large-scale magnetic field in older main-sequence stars, leading to weakened magnetic br…
Editorial: Mass and Angular Momentum Transport of Rapidly Rotating Hot Stars
P. A. Scowen, Carol E. Jones, René D. Oudmaijer +2
This dedicated journal collection will present and discuss a variety of science cases that can be used to extend our knowledge of massive stars and the influence of their rapid rot…
Exploring the binary origin of B and Be rapid rotators
Jonathan Labadie-Bartz, Mark Suffak, Carol Jones +8
Observational evidence has continued to mount that a significant fraction of rapidly rotating early-B type stars are products of binary mass transfer. However, very few mid- and la…
Predicted observational effects of rapid rotation for Be stars
Rina G. Rast, Carol E. Jones, Mark W. Suffak +6
We conduct a systematic study on the effects of rapid rotation on predicted Be star observables. We use the three-dimensional Monte Carlo radiative transfer code, \textsc{hdust}, t…
High energy emission powered by accreting companions of Be/gamma Cas stars
Rina G. Rast, Yael Naze, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +6
The origin of the hard, bright X-ray emission that defines the gamma Cas analog class of Be stars remains an outstanding question in Be star literature. This work explores the poss…
Efficiency of viscous angular momentum transport in dissipating Be binaries
Peter Quigley, Carol E. Jones, Kenneth Gayley +9
Angular momentum transport is a fundamental process shaping the structure, evolution, and lifespans of stars and disks across a wide range of astrophysical systems. Be stars offer…
X-ray Variability in the Symbiotic Binary RT Cru: Principal Component Analysis
A. Danehkar, J. J. Drake, G. J. M. Luna
Hard X-ray-emitting (-type) symbiotic binaries, which exhibit a strong hard X-ray excess, have posed a challenge to our understanding of accretion physics in degenerate dwarfs.…
Mixing of hot shocked plasma with cold gas in Nova YZ Ret 2020
Sharon Mitrani, Ehud Behar, Jeremy J. Drake +5
The origin of bright X-ray emission lines that appear late in a nova eruption remains largely a puzzle. We present two high-resolution X-ray grating spectra of the classical nova Y…
High-resolution Pan-STARRS and SMA observations of IRAS 23077+6707: A giant edge-on protoplanetary disk
Kristina Monsch, Joshua B. Lovell, Ciprian T. Berghea +6
We present resolved images of IRAS 23077+6707 ("Dracula's Chivito") in 1.3 mm/225 GHz thermal dust and CO gas emission with the Submillimeter Array (SMA) and optical (0.5-$0.8\,μ\m…
Dracula's Chivito: discovery of a large edge-on protoplanetary disk with Pan-STARRS
Ciprian T. Berghea, Ammar Bayyari, Michael L. Sitko +6
We report the serendipitous discovery of a large edge-on protoplanetary disk associated with the infrared source IRAS 23077+6707. The disk's apparent size in the Pan-STARRS (PS1) i…
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey
M. G. Guarcello, E. Flaccomio, J. F. Albacete-Colombo +48
Context. With a mass exceeding several 10^4 solar masses and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters represent the most massive star-forming…
X-ray irradiated protoplanetary disk atmospheres II: Predictions from models in hydrostatic equilibrium
Barbara Ercolano, Cathie J. Clarke, Jeremy J. Drake
We present new models for the X-ray photoevaporation of circumstellar discs which suggest that the resulting mass loss (occurring mainly over the radial range 10-40 AU) may be the…
