Evidence for the emergence of stellar magnetic fields during rapid mass transfer

Gregg A. Wade, Tomer Shenar, Pablo Marchant +6

Binary interaction fundamentally alters the evolution of massive stars, yet the physical consequences of mass transfer remain poorly constrained. Here we present high-resolution sp…

SPAMMS: 3D spectroscopic modeling of stellar surfaces. II. Implementation of Kurucz and TLUSTY model atmospheres

D. Galán-Diéguez, M. Abdul-Masih, C. Allende Prieto +3

Context. Accurate stellar spectra are essential to derive stellar properties. Traditional model atmospheres often oversimplify phenomena that break spherical symmetry, such as rota…

The symphony of pulsations and binarity among massive stars using HERMES spectroscopy and TESS photometry

K. Thomson-Paressant, D. M. Bowman, F. Nardini +16

A wide range of variability mechanisms exist among intermediate mass and massive stars, which are not yet fully understood. Using complementary data sources for a large population…

SpecFANN: Spectral Fitting via Artificial Neural Networks I. A deep learning based fastwind emulator and fitting suite

M. Abdul-Masih, C. Hawcroft, T. Lechien +14

The importance of massive stars cannot be overstated: they are powerful probes of the early universe, play a vital role in the chemical and mechanical evolution of their host envir…

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

K 1-6 has long been classified as a planetary nebula (PN) hosting a binary central star, yet it has remained poorly studied due to its faintness. The central star exhibits pronounc…

Symbiotic binaries in the Gaia data. II. Symbiotic candidates from general variability classification in DR3

Jaroslav Merc, Lionel Mulato, Joanna Mikołajewska +7

We investigate the reliability of the symbiotic star class in the general variability classification of Gaia DR3 and search for new genuine symbiotic systems among the objects assi…
