Wind Roche Lobe Overflow as a way to make type Ia supernova from the widest symbiotic systems
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Joanna Mikolajewska, Krzysztof Belczynski +2
Symbiotic stars are interacting binaries with one of the longest orbital periods. Since they can contain a massive white dwarf with a high accretion rate they are considered a poss…
A deep survey for symbiotic stars in the Magellanic Clouds - 1. Methodology and first discoveries in the SMC
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Joanna Mikolajewska, Michael M. Shara +3
We have initiated a survey aimed at locating a nearly complete sample of classical symbiotic stars (SySt) in the Magellanic Clouds. Such a sample is nearly impossible to obtain in…
No cataclysmic variables missing: higher merger rate brings into agreement observed and predicted space densities
Diogo Belloni, Matthias R. Schreiber, Mónica Zorotovic +4
The predicted and observed space density of cataclysmic variables (CVs) have been for a long time discrepant by at least an order of magnitude. The standard model of CV evolution p…
SALT HRS discovery of the binary nucleus of the Etched Hourglass Nebula MyCn 18
Brent Miszalski, Rajeev Manick, Joanna Mikołajewska +2
The shaping of various morphological features of planetary nebulae (PNe) is increasingly linked to the role of binary central stars. Identifying a binary within a PN offers a power…
A D'-type symbiotic binary in the planetary nebula SMP LMC 88
Krystian Ilkiewicz, Joanna Mikolajewska, Brent Miszalski +2
SMP LMC 88 is one of the planetary nebulae (PN) in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We identify in its spectrum Raman scattered O VI lines at 6825 and 7083A. This unambiguously classifi…
