Discovery of a TiO emission band in the infrared spectrum of the S star NP Aurigae

K. Smolders, T. Verhoelst, P. Neyskens +10

We report on the discovery of an infrared emission band in the Spitzer spectrum of the S-type AGB star NP Aurigae that is caused by TiO molecules in the circumstellar environment.…

14 Ceti: A probable Ap-star-descendant entering the Hertzsprung gap

M. Auriere, R. Konstantinova-Antova, P. Petit +5

14 Ceti is a subgiant star of F spectral class that displays variations in the S-index of its CaII H & K lines and an X-ray emission that is stronger than the mean observed for its…

Time resolved spectroscopy of BD+46 442: gas streams and jet creation in a newly discovered evolved binary with a disk

N. Gorlova, H. Van Winckel, C. Gielen +9

Previous studies have shown that many post-AGB stars with dusty disks are associated with single-lined binary stars. To verify the binarity hypothesis on a larger sample, we starte…

Mass ratio from Doppler beaming and Rømer delay versus ellipsoidal modulation in the Kepler data of KOI-74

S. Bloemen, T. R. Marsh, P. Degroote +18

We present a light curve analysis and radial velocity study of KOI-74, an eclipsing A star + white dwarf binary with a 5.2 day orbit. Aside from new spectroscopy covering the orbit…

The Spitzer Spectroscopic Survey of S-type Stars

K. Smolders, P. Neyskens, J. A. D. L. Blommaert +28

S-type AGB stars are thought to be in the transitional phase between M-type and C-type AGB stars. Because of their peculiar chemical composition, one may expect a strong influence…
