Possible anti-correlations between pulsation amplitudes and the disk growth of Be stars in giant-outbursting Be X-ray binaries

Masafumi Niwano, Michael M. Fausnaugh, Ryan M. Lau +15

The mechanism of X-ray outbursts in Be X-ray binaries remains a mystery, and understanding their circumstellar disks is crucial for a solution of the mass-transfer problem. In part…

Investigating the Electron Capture Supernova Candidate AT 2019abn with JWST Spectroscopy

Sam Rose, Ryan M. Lau, Jacob E. Jencson +5

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has opened up a new window to study highly reddened explosive transients. We present results from late-time (1421 days post-explosion) JWST fo…

An infrared census of R Coronae Borealis Stars II -- Spectroscopic classifications and implications for the rate of low-mass white dwarf mergers

Viraj R. Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal, Patrick Tisserand +18

We present results from a systematic infrared (IR) census of R Coronae Borealis (RCB) stars in the Milky Way, using data from the Palomar Gattini IR (PGIR) survey. R Coronae Boreal…

SOFIA/FORCAST Galactic Center Source Catalog

Angela S. Cotera, Matthew J. Hankins, John Bally +12

The central regions of the Milky Way constitute a unique laboratory for a wide swath of astrophysical studies, consequently the inner 400 pc has been the target of numerous l…

An Automated Catalog of Long Period Variables using Infrared Lightcurves from Palomar Gattini-IR

Aswin Suresh, Viraj Karambelkar, Mansi M. Kasliwal +8

Stars in the Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) phase, dominated by low to intermediate-mass stars in the late stage of evolution, undergo periodic pulsations, with periods of several h…

SOFIA/HAWC+ Far-Infrared Polarimetric Large Area CMZ Exploration (FIREPLACE) II: Detection of a Magnetized Dust Ring in the Galactic Center

Natalie O. Butterfield, Jordan A. Guerra, David T. Chuss +7

We present the detection of a magnetized dust ring (M0.8-0.2) in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Galactic Center. The results presented in this paper utilize the first data…
