The James Webb Space Telescope Mission
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Randy Abbott +1004
Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized…
Shocks and Photoionization of the Inner 650 AU Jet of the Interacting Binary Star R Aquarii from Multiwavelength Hubble Space Telescope Observations
Caroline D. Huang, Margarita Karovska, Warren Hack +3
Astrophysical jets are present in a range of environments, including young stellar objects, X-ray binaries, and active galactic nuclei, but their formation is still not fully under…
DrizzlePac 2.0 - Introducing New Features
Roberto J. Avila, Warren Hack, Mihai Cara +4
The DrizzlePac package includes tasks for aligning and drizzling images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. We present this release which includes new features that facilitate i…
A Precessing Jet in the CH Cyg Symbiotic System
M. Karovska, T. J. Gaetz, C. L. Carilli +3
Jets have been detected in only a few symbiotic binaries to date, and CH Cyg is one of them. In 2001, a non-relativistic jet was detected in CH Cyg for the first time in X-rays. We…
X-ray Outburst in Mira A
M. Karovska, E. Schlegel, W. Hack +1
We report here the Chandra ACIS-S detection of a bright soft X-ray transient in the Mira AB interacting symbiotic-like binary. We resolved the system for the first time in the X-ra…
Detection of H2 Emission from Mira B in UV Spectra from the Hubble Space Telescope
Brian E. Wood, Margarita Karovska, Warren Hack
We present ultraviolet spectra of Mira's companion star from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) instrument on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The companion is…
The Intrinsic Absorber in QSO 2359-1241: Keck and HST Observations
Nahum Arav, Michael S. Brotherton, Robert H. Becker +4
We present detailed analyses of the absorption spectrum seen in QSO 2359-1241 (NVSS J235953-124148). Keck HIRES data reveal absorption from twenty transitions arising from: He I, M…
QSO 2359-1241: A Bright, Highly Polarized, Radio-Moderate, Reddened, Low-Ionization Broad Absorption Line Quasar
M. S. Brotherton, Nahum Arav, R. H. Becker +5
We report the discovery of a bright quasar (E=15.8, z=0.868) associated with the flat spectrum radio source NVSS J235953-124148. This quasar we designate QSO 2359-1241 possesses a…
The symbiotic binary system RX Puppis: a possible recurrent nova with a Mira companion
Joanna Mikolajewska, Estela Brandi, Warren Hack +4
We present an analysis of photometric and spectroscopic observations of the symbiotic binary system RX Pup with the aims of developing a reliable binary for the system and identify…
