An extensive spectroscopic time series of three Wolf-Rayet stars -- II. A search for wind asymmetries in the dust-forming WC7 binary WR137
N. St-Louis, C. Piaulet, N. D. Richardson +39
We present the results of a four-month, spectroscopic campaign of the Wolf-Rayet dust-making binary, WR137. We detect only small-amplitude, random variability in the CIII5696 emiss…
Orbital Period Changes in WZ Sagittae
Joseph Patterson, Geoffrey Stone, Jonathan Kemp +19
We report a long-term (1961-2017) study of the eclipse times in the dwarf nova WZ Sagittae, in an effort to learn its rate of orbital-period change. Some wiggles with a time scale…
An extensive spectroscopic time-series of three Wolf-Rayet stars. I. The lifetime of large-scale structures in the wind of WR 134
E. J. Aldoretta, N. St-Louis, N. D. Richardson +46
During the summer of 2013, a 4-month spectroscopic campaign took place to observe the variabilities in three Wolf-Rayet stars. The spectroscopic data have been analyzed for WR 134…
A Coordinated X-ray and Optical Campaign of the Nearest Massive Eclipsing Binary, delta Orionis Aa: III. Analysis of Optical Photometric MOST and Spectroscopic (Ground Based) Variations
Herbert Pablo, Noel D. Richardson, Anthony F. J. Moffat +44
We report on both high-precision photometry from the MOST space telescope and ground-based spectroscopy of the triple system delta Ori A consisting of a binary O9.5II+early-B (Aa1…
The 2011 February superoutburst of the dwarf nova SDSS J112003.40+663632.4
Jeremy Shears, Steve Brady, Tom Krajci +4
We report unfiltered photometry of SDSS J112003.40+663632.4 during the 2011 February outburst which revealed the presence of superhumps with peak-to-peak amplitude of up to 0.22 ma…
Rapid Oscillations in Cataclysmic Variables. XVII. 1RXS J070407+262501
J. Patterson, J. R. Thorstensen, H. A. Sheets +10
We present a study of the recently discovered intermediate polar 1RXS J070407+262501, distinctive for its large-amplitude pulsed signal at P = 480 s. Radial velocities indicate an…
VSX J074727.6+065050: a new WZ Sagittae star in Canis minor
Jeremy Shears, Steve Brady, Greg Bolt +16
We present photometry of the first reported superoutburst of the dwarf nova VSX J074727.6+065050 during 2008 January and February. At its brightest the star reached magnitude 11.4…
