Probable ice-rich deposits on north-facing slopes in Alba Patera, Mars
Gregg, Tracy K. P.; Schiff, Nicholas L. G.
We examine unconformable lobate deposits along the north-facing slopes of Alba Patera (40°N, 250°E with an elevation of ~6 km), Mars, using data from the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter Context Camera, High-Resolution Imaging Science Experiment, and the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter. We interpret the lobate north-facing slope deposits (NSFDs) to be sma…
Far-ultraviolet investigation into the galactic globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099) - II. Potential X-ray counterparts and variable sources
Zurek, David R.; Kroupa, Pavel; Long, Knox S. +4 more
We present a far-ultraviolet (FUV) study of the globular cluster M30 (NGC 7099). The images were obtained using the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS/SBC, F150LP, FUV) and the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2; F300W, UV) on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We compare the catalogue of FUV objects to 10 known X-ray sources and find six con…

New Apsidal Motion in Four Eccentric Eclipsing Binaries: V610 Car, V944 Cep, V2815 Ori and V1260 Tau
Bulut, Ahmet
This paper presents an apsidal motion analysis. The apsidal motion analysis of the eccentric eclipsing binaries V610 Car (P = 4.84 days), V944 Cep (P = 6.56 days), V2815 Ori (P = 2.13 days), and V1260 Tau (P = 5.43 days) was performed using minima times from the O-C Gateway database, ASAS-3, ASAS-SN, and TESS, following Lacy's approach. The rates …
Physical Calibrations of the FREND Instrument Installed Onboard TGO Martian Orbiter
Mitrofanov, I. G.; Golovin, D. V.; Litvak, M. L. +10 more
The article presents results of ground calibrations of the FREND neutron telescope installed onboard the TGO spacecraft of the Russian-European ExoMars project. The main goal of the FREND space experiment is to measure hydrogen content in the subsurface layer of Mars to a depth of 1 m. High resolution maps of water mass fraction in the regolith ar…
Searching for shell stars in LAMOST DR4 by probing the Fe 42 multiplet lines
Paunzen, Ernst; Hümmerich, Stefan; Bernhard, Klaus
Shell stars, in particular the cooler ones, often do not show conspicuous Balmer-line emission and may consequently be missed in surveys that specifically search for emission signatures in the H α line. This work is aimed at identifying stars with shell-signatures via a search for strong Fe II multiplet 42 lines at λλ4924, 5018, 5169 Å in archival…
Simulation of photoelectron flux, electron density, emission rate and limb intensity of CO(a3π) Cameron bands in the Martian thermosphere: Comparisons with (1) SPICAM and IUVS observations and (2) other model calculations
Haider, S. A.; Thirupathaiah, P.; Masoom, J.
Using analytical yield spectrum approach based on Monte Carlo method, the current study calculated the photoelectron flux, electron density, emission rate and limb intensity of carbon monoxide (CO)(a3π) bands between altitudes 90 and 200 km. The observation conditions that prevailed when the spectroscopy for investigation of the charact…
SRG/eROSITA Survey in the Lockman Hole: Classification of X-ray Sources
Gilfanov, M. R.; Belvedersky, M. I.; Bykov, S. D.
We have classified the X-ray sources detected by the SRG/eROSITA telescope in the deep Lockman Hole survey. The goal of the classification has been the separation of the sources into Galactic and extragalactic objects. For this purpose, we have used the results of our previous cross-match of X-ray sources with optical catalogs. For the classificat…
Supernova remnant W51C: optical and X-ray emission analysis
Rosado, M.; Arias, L.; Reyes-Iturbide, J. +4 more
We present observations of the optical and X-ray emission from the Galactic supernova remnant W51C. From [S II] Fabry-Pérot interferometry and H α and [S II] images we detect filaments that are part of the optical counterpart of the supernova remnant. We obtain the kinematic distance to W51C, showing that it is one of the shortest distances report…
A radio continuum study of NGC 2082
Filipović, M. D.; Dai, S.; Barnes, L. +2 more
We present radio continuum observations of NGC 2082 using ASKAP, ATCA and Parkes telescopes from 888 MHz to 9000 MHz. Some 20 arcsec from the centre of this nearby spiral galaxy, we discovered a bright and compact radio source, J054149.24–641813.7, of unknown origin. To constrain the nature of J054149.24–641813.7, we searched for transient events …
