Experimental evidence for coronal mass ejection suppression in strong stellar magnetic fields
S. N. Chen, K. Burdonov, W. Yao +10
Solar coronal mass ejections (CME) are routinely observed, but as of yet there exist few convincing detections of stellar CMEs. A reason for this could be the stronger magnetic fie…
EWOCS-V: Is Wd1-72 a recent post-interaction WR+O binary?
C. J. K. Larkin, J. Mackey, H. Jin +14
The evolutionary origin of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars at Solar metallicity is unclear. Single-star evolution from massive O stars, possibly via a Luminous Blue Variable phase, is challe…
Predicting the X-ray signatures of the imminent T Coronae Borealis outburst through 3D hydrodynamic modeling
S. Orlando, L. Chomiuk, J. Drake +3
T Coronae Borealis (T CrB) is a symbiotic recurrent nova with eruptions in 1866 and 1946. Mounting evidence suggests an imminent outburst, offering a rare opportunity to observe a…
EWOCS-IV: 1Ms ACIS Chandra observation of the supergiant B[e] star Wd1-9
K. Anastasopoulou, M. G. Guarcello, J. J. Drake +21
Supergiant B[e] (sgB[e]) stars are exceptionally rare objects, with only a handful of confirmed examples in the Milky Way. The evolutionary pathways leading to the sgB[e] phase rem…
EWOCS-III: JWST observations of the supermassive star cluster Westerlund 1
M. G. Guarcello, V. Almendros-Abad, J. B. Lovell +29
The typically large distances, extinction, and crowding of Galactic supermassive star clusters have so far hampered the identification of their very low mass members, required to e…
