Extremely Broad Lyα Line Emission from the Molecular Intragroup Medium in Stephan's Quintet: Evidence for a Turbulent Cascade in a Highly Clumpy Multiphase Medium?
Shull, J. M.; Boulanger, F.; Falgarone, E. +8 more
We present Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Origin Spectrograph (COS) UV line spectroscopy and integral-field unit (IFU) observations of the intragroup medium in Stephan's Quintet (SQ). SQ hosts a 30 kpc long shocked ridge triggered by a galaxy collision at a relative velocity of 1000 km s-1, where large amounts of molecular gas coexist wi…
Rapid variations of Si IV spectra in a flare observed by interface region imaging spectrograph at a sub-second cadence
Polito, Vanessa; Yu, Sijie; De Pontieu, Bart +2 more
We report on observations of highly-varying Si IV 1402.77 Å line profiles observed with the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) during the M-class flare from 2022 January 18 at an unprecedented 0.8 s cadence. Moment analysis of this line observed in flare ribbon kernels showed that the intensity, Doppler velocity, and non-thermal broadeni…
Radial Velocity Survey for Planets around Young stars (RVSPY). Target characterisation and high-cadence survey
Trifonov, Trifon; Henning, Thomas; Reffert, Sabine +15 more
Context. The occurrence rate and period distribution of (giant) planets around young stars is still not as well constrained as for older main-sequence stars. This is mostly due to the intrinsic activity-related complications and the avoidance of young stars in many large planet search programmes. Yet, dynamical restructuring processes in planetary…
Multiwavelength Observations by XSM, Hinode, and SDO of an Active Region. Chemical Abundances and Temperatures
Mason, H. E.; Del Zanna, G.; Janardhan, P. +7 more
We have reviewed the first year of observations of the Solar X-ray Monitor (XSM) on board Chandrayaan-2 and the available multiwavelength observations to complement the XSM data, focusing on the Solar Dynamics Observatory AIA and Hinode XRT and EIS observations. XSM has provided disk-integrated solar spectra in the 1-15 keV energy range, observing…
Variations in Vertical CO/CO2 Profiles in the Martian Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere Measured by the ExoMars TGO/NOMAD: Implications of Variations in Eddy Diffusion Coefficient
Vandaele, Ann Carine; Modak, Ashimananda; Brines, Adrian +19 more
Using the Nadir and Occultation for MArs Discovery instrument aboard Trace Gas Orbiter, we derived the CO/CO2 profiles between 75 and 105 km altitude with the equivalent width technique. The derived CO/CO2 profiles showed significant seasonal variations in the southern hemisphere with decreases near perihelion and increases n…
System parameters of three short-period cataclysmic variable stars
Dhillon, V. S.; Breedt, E.; Marsh, T. R. +9 more
Using photometric ULTRACAM observations of three new short-period cataclysmic variables (CVs), we model the primary eclipse light curves to extract the orbital separation, masses, and radii of their component stars. We find donor masses of $0.060\pm 0.008\, {\rm M_\odot }$, $0.042\pm 0.001\, {\rm M_\odot }$, and $0.042\pm 0.004\, {\rm M_\odot }$, …
A Generative Model for Quasar Spectra
Hogg, David W.; Foreman-Mackey, Daniel; Schindler, Jan-Torge +3 more
We build a multi-output generative model for quasar spectra and the properties of their black hole engines, based on a Gaussian process latent-variable model. This model treats every quasar as a vector of latent properties such that the spectrum and all physical properties of the quasar are associated with non-linear functions of those latent para…
K2-79b and K2-222b: Mass Measurements of Two Small Exoplanets with Periods beyond 10 days that Overlap with Periodic Magnetic Activity Signals
Vanderburg, Andrew; López-Morales, Mercedes; Bieryla, Allyson +28 more
We present mass and radius measurements of K2-79b and K2-222b, two transiting exoplanets orbiting active G-type stars observed with HARPS-N and K2. Their respective 10.99 day and 15.39 day orbital periods fall near periods of signals induced by stellar magnetic activity. The two signals might therefore interfere and lead to an inaccurate estimate …
Pulsating hydrogen-deficient white dwarfs and pre-white dwarfs observed with TESS - IV. Discovery of two new GW Vir stars: TIC 0403800675 and TIC 1989122424
Kepler, S. O.; Córsico, Alejandro H.; Uzundag, Murat +4 more
We present two new GW Vir-type pulsating white dwarf stars, TIC 0403800675 (WD J115727.68-280349.64) and TIC 1989122424 (WD J211738.38-552801.18) discovered in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) photometric data. For both stars, the TESS light curves reveal the presence of oscillations with periods in a narrow range between 400 and 4…
Fast time optical variability in Be/X-ray binaries. Pulsation and rotation
Reig, P.; Fabregat, J.
Context. Classical Be stars, regardless of spectral subtype, display multi-periodic light modulations in the frequency range 0.1-12 c d−1 when observed with a high cadence and a long duration. This behavior is attributed to non-radial pulsations and/or the rotation of the Be star. A similar study on the optical counterparts to Be/X-ray …
