Interferometric Survey of Stellar Parameters: Towards homogeneous FGK stars parameters and surface-brightness color relation in the context of PLATO space mission

Romina V. Ibañez Bustos, Denis Mourard, Nicolas Nardetto +20

The estimation of stellar angular diameters can be performed from the surface brightness - color relation (SBCR) and photometry. The SBCR have been considered by the PLATO space mi…

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…

Empirical H- and K-band Limb Darkening for 31 CHARA Stars: A Near-Infrared Benchmark for Stellar-Atmosphere Models

Narsireddy Anugu, John D. Monnier, Antoine Mérand +9

Limb darkening, the decrease in stellar intensity from the disk center to the limb, encodes the temperature structure and opacity of stellar atmospheres. Direct spatially resolved…

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…

Detection and Astrometry of the Ba-Bb Subsystem in Piscium: First Dual-Field Interferometry at the CHARA Array

Narsireddy Anugu, Robert Klement, John D. Monnier +14

We present the first on-sky demonstration of dual-field interferometry at the CHARA Array and the first direct resolution of the inner Ba--Bb subsystem in the bright hierarchical t…

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…

Precise Age For The Binary HD 21278 In The Young Alpha Persei Cluster

Christopher A. Danner, Eric L. Sandquist, Gail H. Schaefer +14

We present a study of the double-lined spectroscopic binary HD 21278 that contains one of the brightest main sequence stars in the young Persei open cluster. We analyzed new sp…

Visual Orbits of Wolf-Rayet Stars II: The Orbit of the Nitrogen-Rich WR Binary WR 138 measured with the CHARA Array

Amanda Holdsworth, Noel Richardson, Gail H. Schaefer +19

Classical Wolf-Rayet stars are descendants of massive OB-type stars that have lost their hydrogen-rich envelopes, and are in the final stages of stellar evolution, possibly explodi…

Visual Orbits of Wolf-Rayet Stars I: The Orbit of the dust-producing Wolf-Rayet binary WR\,137 measured with the CHARA Array

Noel D. Richardson, Gail H. Schaefer, Jan J. Eldridge +19

Classical Wolf-Rayet stars are the descendants of massive OB stars that have lost their hydrogen envelopes and are burning helium in their cores prior to exploding as type Ib/c sup…

Time-Evolution Images of the Hypergiant RW Cephei During the Re-brightening Phase Following the Great Dimming

Narsireddy Anugu, Douglas R. Gies, Rachael M. Roettenbacher +17

Stars with initial masses larger than 8 solar masses undergo substantial mass loss through mechanisms that remain elusive. Unraveling the origins of this mass loss is important for…

Recent and Upcoming Upgrades for MIRC-X and MYSTIC on the CHARA Array

Noura Ibrahim, Mayra Gutierrez, John D. Monnier +17

MIRC-X and MYSTIC are six-telescope near-infrared beam (1.08-2.38 m) combiners at the CHARA Array on Mt Wilson CA, USA. Ever since the commissioning of MIRC-X (J and H bands) in…

Prospects for using drones to test formation-flying CubeSat concepts, and other astronomical applications

John D. Monnier, Prachet Jain, Mayra Gutierrez +11

Drones provide a versatile platform for remote sensing and atmospheric studies. However, strict payload mass limits and intense vibrations have proven obstacles to adoption for ast…

CHARA Near-Infrared Imaging of the Yellow Hypergiant Star Cassiopeiae: Convection Cells and Circumstellar Envelope

Narsireddy Anugu, Fabien Baron, John D. Monnier +18

Massive evolved stars such as red supergiants and hypergiants are potential progenitors of Type II supernovae, and they are known for ejecting substantial amounts of matter, up to…

The Orbit and Mass of the Cepheid AW Per

Nancy Remage Evans, Alexandre Gallenne, Pierre Kervella +17

The Cepheid AW Per is a component in a multiple system with a long period orbit. The radial velocities of Griffin (2016) cover the 38 year orbit well. An extensive program of inter…
