The impact of periastron passage on the X-ray and optical properties of the Symbiotic System R Aquarii

D. A. Vásquez-Torres, J. A. Toalá, A. Sacchi +4

Multi-epoch Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the symbiotic system R Aquarii (R Aqr) spanning 22 yr are analysed by means of a reflection model produced by an accretion disc.…

An Audit of the Light Curves of RV Tau Variable Stars in the ASAS-SN Database

Rachel N. Nere, Rodolfo Montez, Sophia Sánchez-Maes

RV Tauri variable stars are pulsating evolved stars that are identified by a characterizing feature in their light curves: alternating deep and shallow minima. Many RV Tauri variab…

Asymptotic giant branch stars in the eROSITA-DE eRASS1 catalog

Martin A. Guerrero, Rodolfo Montez, Roberto Ortiz +2

AGB stars are not expected to be X-ray-emitters, yet a small fraction of them, the so-called X-AGBs, show X-ray emission that can be attributed to coronal activity of a companion o…

ALMA Observations of Molecular Line Emission from High-excitation Bipolar Planetary Nebulae

Paula Moraga Baez, Joel H. Kastner, Jesse Bublitz +7

We present early results from our program of ALMA Band 6 (1.3mm) molecular line mapping of a sample of nearby, well-studied examples of high-excitation, bipolar/pinched-waist and m…

Discovery of Radial Spectral Hardening in the Hot Bubble of Planetary Nebula BD+30 3639 with Median Energy Imaging

Rodolfo Montez

We introduce a new imaging analysis technique to study the spatial distribution of the X-ray emission from the hot bubble of planetary nebula BD+30 3639. Hot bubble emission is typ…

Shocks and Photoionization of the Inner 650 AU Jet of the Interacting Binary Star R Aquarii from Multiwavelength Hubble Space Telescope Observations

Caroline D. Huang, Margarita Karovska, Warren Hack +3

Astrophysical jets are present in a range of environments, including young stellar objects, X-ray binaries, and active galactic nuclei, but their formation is still not fully under…
