Continuum reverberation mapping of MCG 08-11-011
C. Fian, D. Chelouche, S. Kaspi +3
We report the results from a photometric reverberation mapping campaign carried out with the C18 telescope at the Wise Observatory from 2019 to 2020, targeting the active galactic…
Continuum reverberation mapping of the quasar PG 2130+099
C. Fian, D. Chelouche, S. Kaspi +3
We present the results of an intensive six-month optical continuum reverberation mapping campaign of the Seyfert 1 galaxy PG 2130+099 at redshift z=0.063. The ground-based photomet…
The ESO supernovae type Ia progenitor survey (SPY)
R. Napiwotzki, C. A. Karl, T. Lisker +13
Close double degenerate binaries are one of the favoured progenitor channels for type Ia supernovae, but it is unclear how many suitable systems there are in the Galaxy. We report…
Axions and the luminosity function of white dwarfs. The thin and thick disks, and the halo
Jordi Isern, Enrique Garcia-Berro, Santiago Torres +2
The evolution of white dwarfs is a simple gravothermal process of cooling. Since the shape of their luminosity function is sensitive to the characteristic cooling time, it is possi…
A search for white dwarfs in the Galactic plane: the field and the open cluster population
R. Raddi, S. Catalan, B. T. Gaensicke +13
We investigated the prospects for systematic searches of white dwarfs at low Galactic latitudes, using the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) H Photometric Survey of the Galactic plane…
Supernova 2014J at M82: II. Direct Analysis of Spectra Obtained with Isaac Newton and William Herschel Telescopes
Patrick Vallely, M. E. Moreno-Raya, E. Baron +19
We analyze a time series of optical spectra of SN~2014J from almost two weeks prior to maximum to nearly four months after maximum. We perform our analysis using the SYNOW code, wh…
