Fuelling the nuclear ring of NGC 1097
Galactic bars can drive cold gas inflows towards the centres of galaxies. The gas transport happens primarily through the so-called bar dust lanes, which connect the galactic disc at kpc scales to the nuclear rings at hundreds of pc scales much like two gi ...
2023Numerical simulations of gas puff imaging using a multi-component model of the neutral-plasma interaction in the tokamak boundary
A three-dimensional simulation of gas puff imaging (GPI) diagnostics is carried out by using a self-consistent multi-component model of the neutral-plasma interaction. The simulation, based on the drift-reduced Braginskii model for the plasma and a kinetic ...
AIP Publishing2022HD 60431, the CP2 star with the shortest rotational period Physical parameters and period analysis
Context. CP2 stars show periodic photometric, spectroscopic, and magnetic variations with the rotational period. They are generally slow rotators, with rotational periods exceeding half a day, except for the late B-type star HD 60431, which has an unusuall ...
EDP SCIENCES S A2022Do the majority of stars form as gravitationally unbound?
Context. Some of the youngest stars (age less than or similar to 10 Myr) are clustered, while many others are observed scattered throughout star forming regions or in complete isolation. It has been intensively debated whether such scattered or isolated st ...
2022Cepheids with Giant Companions. I. Revealing a Numerous Population of Double-lined Binary Cepheids* (dagger)
Masses of classical Cepheids of 3-11 M are predicted by theory but those measured clump between 3.6-5 M. As a result, their mass-luminosity relation is poorly constrained, impeding our understanding of basic stellar physics and the Leavitt Law. All Cepheid ...
