V405 Aurigae: A High Magnetic Field Intermediate Polar
V. Piirola, T. Vornanen, A. Berdyugin +1
Our simultaneous multicolor (UBVRI) circular polarimetry has revealed nearly sinusoidal variation over the WD spin cycle, and almost symmetric positive and negative polarization ex…
First detection of polarized scattered light from an exoplanetary atmosphere
S. V. Berdyugina, A. V. Berdyugin, D. M. Fluri +1
We report the first direct detection of an exoplanet in the visible polarized light. The transiting planet HD189733b is one of the very hot Jupiters with shortest periods and, thus…
An Extreme Case of a Misaligned Highly Flattened Wind in the Wolf-Rayet Binary CX Cephei
A. Villar-Sbaffi, N. St-Louis, Anthony F. J. Moffat +3
CX Cep (WR 151) is the WR+O binary (WN5+O5V) with the second shortest period known in our Galaxy. To examine the circumstellar matter distribution and to better constraint the orbi…
Multiband optical polarimetry of BL Lac objects with the Nordic Optical Telescope
L. Tommasi, E. Palazzi, E. Pian +6
Optical polarization of seven selected BL Lac objects in UBVRI bands was studied with the Nordic Optical Telescope from December 10-14, 1999. Two of them, 3C 66A and PKS 0735+178,…
