Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer Imaging of Line Emission Regions of beta Lyrae Using Differential Phase Referencing
H. R. Schmitt, T. A. Pauls, C. Tycner +9
We present the results of an experiment to image the interacting binary star beta Lyrae with data from the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer (NPOI), using a differential phase…
Vega is a rapidly rotating star
D. M. Peterson, C. A. Hummel, T. A. Pauls +8
Vega, the second brightest star in the northern hemisphere, serves as a primary spectral type standard. While its spectrum is dominated by broad hydrogen lines, the narrower lines…
Constraining Disk Parameters of Be Stars using Narrowband H-alpha Interferometry with the NPOI
C. Tycner, G. C. Gilbreath, R. T. Zavala +7
Interferometric observations of two well-known Be stars, gamma Cas and phi Per, were collected and analyzed to determine the spatial characteristics of their circumstellar regions.…
Resolving the Effects of Rotation in Altair with Long-Baseline Interferometry
D. M. Peterson, C. A. Hummel, T. A. Pauls +7
We report successful fitting of a Roche model, with a surface temperature gradient following the von Zeipel gravity darkening law, to observations of Altair made with the Navy Prot…
Properties of the H-alpha-emitting Circumstellar Regions of Be Stars
Christopher Tycner, John B. Lester, Arsen R. Hajian +6
Long-baseline interferometric observations obtained with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer of the H-alpha-emitting envelopes of the Be stars eta Tauri and beta Canis Minori…
