A Chandra Observation of the Eclipsing Wolf-Rayet Binary CQ Cep
S. L. Skinner, S. A. Zhekov, M. Guedel +1
The short-period (1.64 d) near-contact eclipsing WN6+O9 binary system CQ Cep provides an ideal laboratory for testing the predictions of X-ray colliding wind shock theory at close…
X-ray emission from an FU Ori star in early outburst: HBC 722
Armin Liebhart, Manuel Guedel, Stephen Skinner +1
Aims: We conducted the first X-ray observations of the newly erupting FU Ori-type outburst in HBC 722 (V2493 Cyg) with the aim to characterize its X-ray behavior and near-stellar e…
Chandra Resolves the T Tauri Binary System RW Aur
Stephen L. Skinner, Manuel Guedel
RW Aur is a multiple T Tauri system consisting of an early-K type primary (A) and a K5 companion (B) at a separation of 1.4 arcsec. RW Aur A drives a bipolar optical jet that is we…
A Chandra Grating Observation of the Dusty Wolf-Rayet Star WR48a
Svetozar A. Zhekov, Marc Gagne, Stephen L. Skinner
We present results of a Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG) observation of the carbon-rich Wolf-Rayet (WR) star WR48a. These are the first high-resolution spectra of th…
An X-ray and Infrared Survey of the Lynds 1228 Cloud Core
Stephen Skinner, Luisa Rebull, Manuel Guedel
The nearby Lynds 1228 (L1228) dark cloud at a distance of ~200 pc is known to harbor several young stars including the driving sources of the giant HH 199 and HH 200 Herbig-Haro ou…
Episodic Accretion in Young Stars
Marc Audard, Péter Ábrahám, Michael M. Dunham +10
In the last twenty years, the topic of episodic accretion has gained significant interest in the star formation community. It is now viewed as a common, though still poorly underst…
