X-ray properties of the stellar population in the Carina OB1 association are examined with special emphasis on early-type stars. Their spectral characteristics provide some clues to understanding the nature of X-ray formation mechanisms in the winds of single and binary early-type stars. Methods. A timing and spectral analysis of five observations with XMM-Newton is performed using various statistical tests and thermal spectral models. Results. 235 point sources have been detected within the field of view. Several of these sources are probably pre-main sequence stars with characteristic short-term variability. Seven sources are possible background AGNs. Spectral analysis of twenty four sources of type OB and WR 25 was performed. We derived spectral parameters of the sources and their fluxes in three energy bands.

  • The Electric Sun Hypothesis
    Basics of astrophysics revisited. II. Mass- luminosity- rotation relation for F, A, B, O and WR class stars Edgars Alksnis [email protected] Small volume statistics show, that luminosity of bright stars is proportional to their angular momentums of rotation when certain relation between stellar mass and stellar rotation speed is reached. Cause should be outside of standard stellar model. Concept allows strengthen hypotheses of 1) fast rotation of Wolf-Rayet stars and 2) low mass central black hole of the Milky Way. Keywords: mass-luminosity relation, stellar rotation, Wolf-Rayet stars, stellar angular momentum, Sagittarius A* mass, Sagittarius A* luminosity. In previous work (Alksnis, 2017) we have shown, that in slow rotating stars stellar luminosity is proportional to spin angular momentum of the star. This allows us to see, that there in fact are no stars outside of “main sequence” within stellar classes G, K and M. METHOD We have analyzed possible connection between stellar luminosity and stellar angular momentum in samples of most known F, A, B, O and WR class stars (tables 1-5). Stellar equatorial rotation speed (vsini) was used as main parameter of stellar rotation when possible. Several diverse data for one star were averaged. Zero stellar rotation speed was considered as an error and corresponding star has been not included in sample.

We present radial-velocity data for the six brightest members of the open cluster Trumpler 14 based on high-dispersion spectra obtained over a five-night interval. None of these O-type stars appear to be spectroscopic binaries with periods of the order of a week or less, and none are speckle binaries. This binary fraction is low for O-type stars, and we suggest that the lack of primordial hard binaries and their dynamical interactions may explain how the cluster has maintained a high spatial density even after several cluster crossing times. 1.

We present the 2.4–670 μm spectral energy distribution, constructed from legacy Infrared Space Observatory observations and new spectroscopy obtained with the Herschel Space Observatory. Using radiative transfer modeling, we find that the two best-fit dust models yield compositions that are consistent with CNO-processed material, with iron, pyroxene and other metal-rich silicates, corundum, and magnesium-iron sulfide in common.

Chris Desselles did a fantastic job of cooking the jambalaya. Although the weather was partly cloudy-to-cloudy, it was not too hot, and we got to see a sun dog or two. We should keep this in mind when we are planning next year's LIGO picnic. HIGHLIGHTS OF 2018: Our Astrophotography Group (BRAG) got off the ground. Starting such a group had been talked about for a few years but didn’t kick off until Scott Louque took the lead, holding the first meeting at his house and sharing his knowledge.

    Examining Chandra X-Ray Images of Stellar Sources in the Carina Nebula Kati Bilty & Nathan Miller Department of Physics and Astronomy University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Abstract As part of a collaboration formed to study the X-ray emission from hot stars, we have obtained X-ray spectra of two O-type stars (HD 93129 and HD 93250). In addition to the high-resolution spectra that were the focus of the collaboration, this data set contains a number of direct X-ray images of other hot stars in the Carina Nebula complex. Each star of the two main stars were observed multiple times with different instrument orientations, so our first goal was to combine all of the images for each star into a single master image. We constructed an "exposure map" which visually describes the measured sensitivity of different regions of the cluster. We placed circular regions around all the detected stellar sources in the X-ray images and attempted to identify which stars they corresponded to in the visual image. We then measured the properties of the photon counts within each HD93403 region and compared their X-ray properties with the properties of the stellar sources in other bands, if known. HD93128 HD303311 HD93129 HD93268 HD93160 HD93250 HD93161 HD93129 HD303308 HD93250 Eta Car HD93162 Eta Car HD93205 HD93204 HD93343 N N This is a Hubble image of the Carina Nebula, NGC 3372. The Trumpler 14 star cluster can be E E seen on the right side of the image with its main star HD93129.
