SN 2024afyu interpreted as a Pair Instability Supernova
P. J. Pessi, S. Barmentloo, Ł. Wyrzykowski +63
Pair-instability supernovae (PISNe) are the predicted explosions of very massive stars triggered by electron-positron pair production. Numerous transients have been proposed as PIS…
Constraining Lens Masses in Moderately to Highly Magnified Microlensing Events from Gaia
U. Pylypenko, Ł. Wyrzykowski, P. J. Mikołajczyk +57
Microlensing events provide a unique way to detect and measure the masses of isolated, non-luminous objects, particularly dark stellar remnants. Under certain conditions, it is pos…
Single-lens mass measurement in the high-magnification microlensing event Gaia19bld located in the Galactic disc
K. A. Rybicki, Ł. Wyrzykowski, E. Bachelet +66
We present the photometric analysis of Gaia19bld, a high-magnification () microlensing event located in the southern Galactic plane, which exhibited finite source and m…
Interstellar extinction, polarization, and grain alignment in the Sh 2-185 (IC 59 and IC 63) region
Archana Soam, B-G Andersson, V. Straižys +6
Optical and infrared continuum polarization from the interstellar medium is driven by radiative processes aligning the grains with the magnetic field. While a quantitative, predict…
Gaia 18dvy: a new FUor in the Cygnus OB3 association
E. Szegedi-Elek, P. Ábrahám, L. Wyrzykowski +59
We present optical-infrared photometric and spectroscopic observations of Gaia18dvy, located in the Cygnus OB3 association at a distance of 1.88 kpc. The object was noted by the Ga…
Full orbital solution for the binary system in the northern Galactic disc microlensing event Gaia16aye
Łukasz Wyrzykowski, P. Mróz, K. A. Rybicki +182
Gaia16aye was a binary microlensing event discovered in the direction towards the northern Galactic disc and was one of the first microlensing events detected and alerted to by the…
The Enigma of the Open Cluster M29 (NGC 6913) Solved
V. Straizys, K. Milasius, R. P. Boyle +9
Determining the distance to the open cluster M29 (NGC 6913) has proven difficult, with distances determined by various authors differing by a factor of two or more. To solve this p…
The distance to the young cluster NGC 7129 and its age
V. Straizys, M. Maskoliunas, R. P. Boyle +6
The dust cloud TGU H645 P2 and embedded in it young open cluster NGC 7129 are investigated using the results of medium-band photometry of 159 stars in the Vilnius seven-colour syst…
The open cluster NGC 7142: interstellar extinction, distance and age
V. Straizys, M. Maskoliunas, R. P. Boyle +4
The results of medium-band photometry of 1037 stars in the area of old open cluster NGC 7142 down to V = 20.1 mag in the Vilnius seven-colour system are presented. Photometric resu…
Photometry and classification of stars around the reflection nebula NGC 7023 in Cepheus. II. Interstellar extinction and cloud distances
K. Zdanavicius, J. Zdanavicius, V. Straizys +1
Interstellar extinction is investigated in a 1.5 square degree area in the direction of the reflection nebula NGC 7023 at l = 104.1 deg, b = +14.2 deg. The study is based on photom…
