UVES and X-Shooter spectroscopy of the emission line AM CVn systems GP Com and V396 Hya
T. Kupfer, D. Steeghs, P. J. Groot +3
We present time-resolved spectroscopy of the AM CVn-type binaries GP Com and V396 Hya obtained with VLT/X-Shooter and VLT/UVES. We fully resolve the narrow central components of th…
The Second Data Release of the INT Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS DR2)
Geert Barentsen, H. J. Farnhill, J. E. Drew +50
The INT/WFC Photometric H-Alpha Survey of the Northern Galactic Plane (IPHAS) is a 1800 square degrees imaging survey covering Galactic latitudes |b| < 5 deg and longitudes l = 30…
The helium-rich cataclysmic variable SBSS 1108+574
P. J. Carter, D. Steeghs, E. de Miguel +12
We present time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry of the dwarf nova SBSS 1108+574, obtained during the 2012 outburst. Its quiescent spectrum is unusually rich in helium, showing…
A search for the hidden population of AM CVn binaries in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
P. J. Carter, T. R. Marsh, D. Steeghs +7
We present the latest results from a spectroscopic survey designed to uncover the hidden population of AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) binaries in the photometric database of the Slo…
SDSS J0926+3624: The shortest period eclipsing binary star
C. M. Copperwheat, T. R. Marsh, S. P. Littlefair +12
With orbital periods of the order of tens of minutes or less, the AM Canum Venaticorum stars are ultracompact, hydrogen deficient binaries with the shortest periods of any binary s…
The type Ib supernova 2010O: an explosion in a Wolf-Rayet X-ray binary?
G. Nelemans, R. Voss, M. T. B. Nielsen +1
The type Ib supernova 2010O was recently discovered in the interacting starburst galaxy Arp 299. We present an analysis of two archival Chandra X-ray observations of Arp 299, taken…
