A new way to find symbiotic stars: accretion disc detection with continuum survey photometry
A. B. Lucy, J. L. Sokoloski, G. J. M. Luna +10
Symbiotic stars are binaries in which a cool and evolved star of luminosity class I-III accretes onto a smaller companion. However, direct accretion signatures like disc flickering…
Transient and asymmetric dust structures in the TeV-bright nova RS Oph revealed by spectropolarimetry
Y. Nikolov, G. J. M. Luna, K. A. Stoyanov +4
A long-standing question related to nova eruptions is how these eruptions can lead to the formation of dust despite the ostensibly inhospitable environment for dust within the hot,…
Radio Spectral Index Analysis of Southern Hemisphere Symbiotic Stars
John M. Dickey, J. H. S. Weston, J. L. Sokoloski +2
Symbiotic stars show emission across the electromagnetic spectrum from a wide array of physical processes. At cm-waves both synchrotron and thermal emission is seen, often highly v…
Very Long Baseline Interferometry imaging of the advancing ejecta in the first gamma-ray nova V407 Cyg
M. Giroletti, U. Munari, E. Körding +7
In 2010/3, the Large Area Telescope on board Fermi revealed a transient gamma-ray source, positionally coincident with the optical nova in the symbiotic binary, V407Cyg. This event…
X-ray, UV, and optical observations of the accretion disk and boundary layer in the symbiotic star RT Cru
G. J. M. Luna, K. Mukai, J. L. Sokoloski +8
Compared to mass transfer in cataclysmic variables, the nature of accretion in symbiotic binaries in which red giants transfer material to white dwarfs (WDs) has been difficult to…
The Chandra Planetary Nebulae Survey (ChanPlaNS): III. X-ray Emission from the Central Stars of Planetary Nebulae
R. Montez, J. H. Kastner, B. Balick +25
We present X-ray spectral analysis of 20 point-like X-ray sources detected in Chandra Planetary Nebula Survey (ChanPlaNS) observations of 59 planetary nebulae (PNe) in the solar ne…
