Stellar activity in a post-merger Giant star
Hans Moritz GGunther, Hans Moritz Günther, C. Melis +4
Binary stars are the progenitors of exotic objects, such as supernovae and gravitational wave sources. However, some systems merge earlier when the primary expands into a giant sta…
Orbital and Physical Properties of the Pleiades Binary 27 Tau (Atlas)
G. Torres, A. Tkachenko, K. Pavlovski +12
We report new spectroscopic and interferometric observations of the Pleiades binary star Atlas, which played an important role nearly three decades ago in settling the debate over…
Ultraviolet variability in Solar-type members of the M67 open cluster
Carl Melis, Ekamjot Kaire
Solar-type members of the rich, nearly Solar-age and Solar-metallicity M67 open cluster are systematically investigated for ultraviolet variability. We utilize archival Galaxy Evol…
OGLE-2002-BLG-360: a dusty anomaly among red nova remnants
T. Steinmetz, T. Kamiński, C. Melis +4
OGLE-2002-BLG-360 is an example of a Galactic red nova, the aftermath of a non-compact stellar merger. The dusty nature of the circumstellar environment makes observations of this…
Luhman 16AB: A Remarkable, Variable L/T Transition Binary 2 pc from the Sun
A. J. Burgasser, J. Faherty, Y. Beletsky +12
Luhman (2013) has reported the discovery of a brown dwarf binary system only 2.01+/-0.15 pc from the Sun. The binary is well-resolved with a projected separation of 1.5", and spect…
