A Tale of Two Herbig Ae stars -MWC275 and AB Aurigae: Comprehensive Models for SED and Interferometry
A. Tannirkulam, J. D. Monnier, T. J. Harries +12
We present comprehensive models for the Herbig Ae stars MWC275 and AB Aur that aim to explain their spectral energy distribution (from UV to millimeter) and long baseline interfero…
First Resolved Images of the Eclipsing and Interacting Binary Beta Lyrae
M. Zhao, D. Gies, J. D. Monnier +12
We present the first resolved images of the eclipsing binary Beta Lyrae, obtained with the CHARA Array interferometer and the MIRC combiner in the H band. The images clearly show t…
Strong Near-Infrared Emission Interior to the Dust-Sublimation Radius of Young Stellar Objects MWC275 and AB Aur
A. Tannirkulam, J. D. Monnier, R. Millan-Gabet +7
Using the longest optical-interferometeric baselines currently available, we have detected strong near-infrared (NIR) emission from inside the dust-destruction radius of Herbig Ae…
Imaging the Surface of Altair
John D. Monnier, M. Zhao, E. Pedretti +13
Spatially resolving the surfaces of nearby stars promises to advance our knowledge of stellar physics. Using optical long-baseline interferometry, we present here a near-infrared i…
Visual/infrared interferometry of Orion Trapezium stars: Preliminary dynamical orbit and aperture synthesis imaging of the Theta 1 Orionis C system
S. Kraus, Y. Y. Balega, J. -P. Berger +10
Located in the Orion Trapezium cluster, Theta 1 Orionis C is one of the youngest and nearest high-mass stars (O5-O7) and also known to be a close binary system. Using new multi-epo…
No Expanding Fireball: Resolving the Recurrent Nova RS Ophiuchi with Infrared Interferometry
J. D. Monnier, R. K. Barry, W. A. Traub +17
Following the recent outburst of the recurrent nova RS Oph on 2006 Feb 12, we measured its near-infrared size using the IOTA, Keck, and PTI Interferometers at multiple epochs. The…
