The Dunhuang chinese sky: a comprehensive study of the oldest known star atlas
Jean-Marc Bonnet-Bidaud, Francoise Praderie, Susan Whitfield
This paper presents an analysis of the star atlas included in the medieval Chinese manuscript (Or.8210/S.3326), discovered in 1907 by the archaeologist Aurel Stein at the Silk Road…
Imaging and Modeling Rapidly Rotating Stars: Alpha Cephei and Alpha Ophiuchi
M. Zhao, J. D. Monnier, E. Pedretti +10
We present sub-milliarcseond resolution imaging and modeling of two nearby rapid rotators Alpha Cephei and Alpha Ophiuchi, obtained with the CHARA array - the largest optical/IR in…
Optical polarisation of the Crab pulsar: precision measurements and comparison to the radio emission
Agnieszka Słowikowska, Gottfried Kanbach, Michael Kramer +1
The linear polarisation of the Crab pulsar and its close environment was derived from observations with the high-speed photo-polarimeter OPTIMA at the 2.56-m Nordic Optical Telesco…
An evolved donor star in the long-period cataclysmic variable HS 0218+3229
P. Rodríguez-Gil, M. A. P. Torres, B. T. Gänsicke +5
Context. We present time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry of HS 0218+3229, a new long-period cataclysmic variable discovered within the Hamburg Quasar Survey. It is one of the…
The Hydrodynamic Environment for the s Process in the He-Shell Flash of AGB Stars
Paul R. Woodward, David H. Porter, Falk Herwig +3
The He-shell flash convection in AGB stars is the site for the high-temperature component of the s-process in low- and intermediate mass giants, driven by the Ne22 neutron source.…
