The Enigma of Gaia18cjb: a Rare Hybrid of FUor and EXor?

Eleonora Fiorellino, Peter Abraham, Agnes Kospal +28

Context. Gaia18cjb is one of the Gaia-alerted eruptive young star candidates which has been experiencing a slow and strong brightening during the last 13 years, similar to some FU…

Photometric and spectroscopic study of the burst-like brightening of two Gaia-alerted young stellar objects

Zsófia Nagy, Péter Ábrahám, Ágnes Kóspál +18

Young stars show variability on different time-scales from hours to decades, with a range of amplitudes. We studied two young stars, which triggered the Gaia Science Alerts system…

Host galaxy magnitude of OJ 287 from its colours at minimum light

Mauri J. Valtonen, Lankeswar Dey, S. Zola +54

OJ 287 is a BL Lacertae type quasar in which the active galactic nucleus (AGN) outshines the host galaxy by an order of magnitude. The only exception to this may be at minimum ligh…

Recurrent strong outbursts of an EXor-like young eruptive star Gaia20eae

Fernando Cruz-Sáenz de Miera, Ágnes Kóspál, Péter Ábrahám +21

We present follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations, and subsequent analysis of Gaia20eae. This source triggered photometric alerts during 2020 after showing a 3…

A spectroscopic follow-up for Gaia19bld

E. Bachelet, P. Zielinski, M. Gromadzki +11

Due to their scarcity, microlensing events in the Galactic disk are of great interest and high-cadence photometric observations, supplemented by spectroscopic follow-up, are necess…

Rotational modulation and single g-mode pulsation in the B9pSi star HD174356?

Z. Mikulasek, E. Paunzen, S. Huemmerich +19

Chemically peculiar (CP) stars of the upper main sequence are characterised by specific anomalies in the photospheric abundances of some chemical elements. The group of CP2 stars,…

Towards an automatic processing of CCD images with CPCS 2.0

Pawel Zielinski, Lukasz Wyrzykowski, Przemyslaw Mikolajczyk +2

We present a new automatic tool for time-domain astronomy - the Cambridge Photometric Calibration Server 2.0 - developed under OPTICON H2020 programme. It has been designed to resp…

Authenticating the Presence of a Relativistic Massive Black Hole Binary in OJ 287 Using its General Relativity Centenary Flare: Improved Orbital Parameters

Lankeswar Dey, M. J. Valtonen, A. Gopakumar +5

Results from regular monitoring of relativistic compact binaries like PSR 1913+16 are consistent with the dominant (quadrupole) order emission of gravitational waves (GWs). We show…

Stochastic modeling of multiwavelength variability of the classical BL Lac object OJ 287 on timescales ranging from decades to hours

A. Goyal, L. Stawarz, S. Zola +109

We present the results of our power spectral density analysis for the BL Lac object OJ\,287, utilizing the {\it Fermi}-LAT survey at high-energy -rays, {\it Swift}-XRT in X-rays…

Observing the PTPS Sample of Evolved Exoplanet Host Candidates Using the NPOI

Ellyn K. Baines, J. Thomas Armstrong, Henrique R. Schmitt +6

We plan to measure the angular diameters of a sample of Penn State-Torun Planet Search (PTPS) giant exoplanet host star candidates using the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer.…

PTPS Candidate Exoplanet Host Star Radii Determination with CHARA Array

Pawel Zielinski, Martin Vanko, Ellyn Baines +2

We propose to measure the radii of the Penn State - Torun Planet Search (PTPS) exoplanet host star candidates using the CHARA Array. Stellar radii estimated from spectroscopic anal…

The Penn State - Toruń Planet Search: target characteristics and recent results

P. Zieliński, A. Niedzielski, A. Wolszczan +3

More than 450 stars hosting planets are known today but only approximately 30 planetary systems were discovered around stars beyond the Main Sequence. The Penn State-Toruń Planet S…
