ATOMIUM: Molecular inventory of 17 oxygen-rich evolved stars observed with ALMA
S. H. J. Wallstrom, T. Danilovich, H. S. P. Muller +35
The dusty winds of cool evolved stars are a major contributor of the newly synthesised material enriching the Galaxy and future generations of stars. However, the details of the ph…
The first mm detection of a neutron star high-mass X-ray binary
J. van den Eijnden, L. Sidoli, M. Diaz Trigo +9
Neutron stars accreting from OB supergiants are often divided between persistently and transiently accreting systems, called Supergiant X-ray Binaries (SgXBs) and Supergiant Fast X…
Reconnection-driven flares in 3D black hole magnetospheres -- A scenario for hot spots around Sagittarius A*
I. El Mellah, B. Cerutti, B. Crinquand
Low-luminosity supermassive and stellar-mass black holes (BHs) may be embedded in a collisionless and highly magnetized plasma. They show non-thermal flares indicative of efficient…
Stellar wind variability in Cygnus X-1 from high-resolution excess variance spectroscopy with Chandra
Lucia K. Härer, Michael L. Parker, Ileyk El Mellah +5
Stellar winds of massive stars are known to be driven by line absorption of UV photons, a mechanism which is prone to instabilities, causing the wind to be clumpy. The clumpy struc…
Observing the onset of the accretion wake in Vela X-1
C. M. Diez, V. Grinberg, F. Fürst +7
High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) offer a unique opportunity for the investigation of accretion onto compact objects and of wind structure in massive stars. A key source for such st…
Clumpy wind studies and the non-detection of cyclotron line in OAO 1657-415
Pragati Pradhan, Carlo Ferrigno, Biswajit Paul +11
Winds of massive stars are suspected to be inhomogeneous (or clumpy), which biases the measures of their mass loss rates. In High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs), the compact object ca…
The VLT/SPHERE view of the ATOMIUM cool evolved star sample. I. Overview: Sample characterization through polarization analysis
M. Montargès, E. Cannon, A. de Koter +32
Aims. Through the ATOMIUM project, based on an ALMA large program, we aim to present a consistent view of a sample of 17 nearby cool evolved stars (Aymptotic Giant Branch and red s…
