SN 2005 gj: Evidence for LBV supernovae progenitors?
C. Trundle, R. Kotak, J. S. Vink +1
There has been mounting observational evidence in favour of Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs) being the direct progenitors of supernovae. Here we present possibly the most convincing…
The defining characteristics of Intermediate Polars - the case of three candidate systems
Gavin Ramsay, Peter J. Wheatley, A. J. Norton +2
Intermediate Polars (IPs) are a group of cataclysmic variables (CVs) which are thought to contain white dwarfs which have a magnetic field strength in the range ~0.1-10MG. A signif…
A search for electron cyclotron maser emission from compact binaries
Gavin Ramsay, Catherine Brocksopp, Kinwah Wu +2
Unipolar induction (UI) is a fundamental physical process, which occurs when a conducting body transverses a magnetic field. It has been suggested that UI is operating in RX J0806+…
Origin of the early-type R stars: a binary-merger solution to a century-old problem?
Robert G. Izzard, C. Simon Jeffery, John Lattanzio
The early-R stars are carbon-rich K-type giants. They are enhanced in C12, C13 and N14, have approximately solar oxygen, magnesium isotopes, s-process and iron abundances, have the…
Evolution of Class0 protostars: Models vs. Observations
D. Froebrich, S. Schmeja, M. D. Smith +1
The rates at which mass accumulates into protostellar cores can now be predicted in numerical simulations. Our purpose here is to develop methods to compare the statistical propert…
