Long-term investigation of gamma Cas analogs

Yael Naze, Gregor Rauw, Robbie Webbe +2

The subcategory of gamma Cas analogs gathers Be stars with bright and hard X-ray emission. Long-term variations are expected in such objects for two reasons: their Be disk builds a…

A family of binaries with an extreme mass ratio

Yael Naze, Gregor Rauw, Piotr A. Kolaczek-Szymanski +2

Multiplicity is ubiquitous among massive stars. While the stellar components usually display similar masses, some binaries with extremely low mass ratios were also observed. Some o…

Apsidal motion and proximity effects in the massive binary BD+60 497

Gregor Rauw, Piotr A. Kolaczek-Szymanski, Yael Naze +1

The eccentric short-period O-star binary BD+60 497 is an interesting laboratory in which to study tidal interactions in massive binary systems, notably via the detection and charac…

High energy emission powered by accreting companions of Be/gamma Cas stars

Rina G. Rast, Yael Naze, Jonathan Labadie-Bartz +6

The origin of the hard, bright X-ray emission that defines the gamma Cas analog class of Be stars remains an outstanding question in Be star literature. This work explores the poss…

X-ray Polarimetry of Accreting White Dwarfs: A Case Study of EX Hydrae

Sean J. Gunderson, Swati Ravi, Herman L. Marshall +5

We present the first first X-ray polarization measurements of a white dwarf, the intermediate polar EX Hya. We measured significant polarization only in the 2 -- 3 keV energy band…

The multi-faceted variability of HD 192639: Stochastic behaviour, regularities, and an exceptional mass-ejection event

Gregor Rauw, Yaël Nazé, Charles-Antoine Gilon

Spectroscopic and photometric variability is widespread among O-type supergiants. It is linked to various phenomena affecting the star and its circumstellar environment, thereby pr…
