V407 Vul: a triple star system with an AM CVn detectable by gravitational wave observatories
James Munday, Antonio C. Rodriguez, Nicole Reindl +23
The AM CVn class includes mass transferring, ultra-compact double white dwarf binaries with orbital periods on the timescale of minutes. A long-standing puzzle is that none of the…
K 1-6 is a photoionised ISM nebula shaped by a fast-moving hot white dwarf in a triple system
Jaroslav Merc, David Jones, Ana Escorza +22
The study shows that nebula K 1‑6 is not a planetary nebula but interstellar gas photoionised by an evolved hot white dwarf, and that its central star is a hierarchical triple syst…
Physics of Eclipsing Binaries. VI. Hot, compact stars
David Jones, Nicole Reindl, Kyle Conroy +9
Models of eclipsing binaries require the assignment of appropriate emergent intensities to the surface elements of the binary components. For distance-dependent modelling of flux-c…
Studying hot evolved stars with ultraviolet spectroscopy
Stephan Geier, Nicole Reindl, Matti Dorsch +7
Hot evolved stars are key objects to reconstruct the various evolutionary pathways of Sun-like stars, to probe binary interactions and the physics of supernovae. They serve as powe…
Ancient 'ghost' planetary nebulae discovered with amateur telescopes
J. A. Manuel, D. Jones, M. Santander-GarcÃa +1
As planetary nebulae evolve, they fade and dissipate into the surrounding interstellar medium making them harder to detect. Modern, advanced amateur equipment can help to uncover t…
Two hot pre-white dwarfs inside the red-giant-branch planetary nebula Pa 13 -- Double core evolution or common envelope-induced rejuvenation?
Nicole Reindl, David Jones, Todd Hillwig +4
Close binary central stars of PNe offer a unique window for investigating the conditions immediately following the ejection of a common envelope (CE). Double eclipsing and double-l…
