Rotation Periods of Binary Asteroids with Large Separations - Confronting the Escaping Ejecta Binaries Model with Observations
D. Polishook, N. Brosch, D. Prialnik
Durda et al. (2004), using numerical models, suggested that binary asteroids with large separation, called Escaping Ejecta Binaries (EEBs), can be created by fragments ejected from…
An Extended Grid of Nova Models. III. Very Luminous, Red Novae
Michael M. Shara, Ofer Yaron, Dina Prialnik +2
Extremely luminous, red eruptive variables like RV in M31 are being suggested as exemplars of a new class of astrophysical object. Our greatly extended series of nova simulations s…
The Red Nova-like Variable in M31 - A Blue Candidate in Quiescence
Michael M. Shara, David Zurek, Dina Prialnik +2
M31-RV was an extraordinarily luminous (~10^6 Lsun) eruptive variable, displaying very cool temperatures (roughly 1000 Kelvins) as it faded. The photometric behavior of M31-RV (and…
Non-Equipartition of Energy, Masses of Nova Ejecta, and Type Ia Supernovae
Michael M. Shara, Ofer Yaron, Dina Prialnik +1
The total masses ejected during classical nova eruptions are needed to answer two questions with broad astrophysical implications: Can accreting white dwarfs be pushed towards the…
