See PAST ISSUES online back to 2009 Visit us on Facebook – Baton Rouge Astronomical Society Baton Rouge Astronomical Society Newsletter, Night Visions Page 2 of 27 September 2020 President’s Message Welcome to September. You may have noticed that this newsletter is showing up a little bit later than usual, and it’s for good reason: release of the newsletter will now happen after the monthly business meeting so that we can have a chance to keep everybody up to date on the latest information. Sometimes, this will mean the newsletter shows up a couple of days late. But, the upshot is that you’ll now be able to see what we discussed at the recent business meeting and have time to digest it before our general meeting in case you want to give some feedback. Now that we’re on the new format, business meetings (and the oft neglected Light Pollution Committee Meeting), are going to start being open to all members of the club again by simply joining up in the respective chat rooms the Wednesday before the first Monday of the month—which I encourage people to do, especially if you have some ideas you want to see the club put into action.

Denn Ende Novem- ber ist der Komet C/2013 US10 (Catalina) für Beobachter auf der Nordhalbkugel in der Morgendämmerung aufgetaucht. Sofort schossen die Spekulationen in die Höhe: Wie hell wird er werden? Wird man den Kometen mit bloßem Auge sehen können? Beschert uns der Himmel einen „Weihnachtskometen“?

To take part in the Observing Certificates Programme you must be a member of one of the member clubs or societies of the IFAS. Check out the list of clubs and links to their websites at the IFAS webpage, www.irishastronomy.org , or on page 4 of this handbook. 2. Observations must be made after September 18 th 2004 (the launch date), AND after the date of purchase of this handbook. 3. You must either post or hand this Handbook to the Observations Secretary who will then verify your recordings. Your Handbook must be received at least 21 days before the star party at which you wish to receive your certificate ( Connaught in January, COSMOS in March, Whirlpool in September). 4. Duplicate observations must be made for each Observing Challenge. If, for example, you observe M31, the Andromeda Galaxy for the Messier Objects Observing Challenge , you cannot use the same observation for the Binocular Sky Observation Challenge . Please remember that the people involved in this project are volunteers who are giving their time freely to run and maintain this programme.

  • The Origin of the High Metallicity of Close-In

Recent studies suggest that in comparison to their host star, many giant exoplanets are highly enriched with heavy elements and can contain several tens of Earth masses of heavy elements or more. Such enrichment is considered to have been delivered by the accretion of planetesimals in late formation stages. Previous dynamical simulations, however, have shown that planets cannot accrete such high masses of heavy elements through “in situ” planetesimal accretion. Aims. We investigate whether a giant planet migrating inward can capture planetesimals efficiently enough to significantly increase its metallicity. Methods. We performed orbital integrations of a migrating giant planet and planetesimals in a protoplanetary gas disc to infer the planetesimal mass that is accreted by the planet. Results. We find that the two shepherding processes of mean motion resonance trapping and aerodynamic gas drag inhibit the planetesimal capture of a migrating planet.

  • Investigating the Circumstellar Disk of the Be Shell Star 48 Librae
    Investigating the Circumstellar Disk of the Be Shell Star 48 Librae J. Silaj1, C. E. Jones1, A. C. Carciofi2, C. Escolano2, A. T. Okazaki3, C. Tycner4, T. Rivinius5, R. Klement5,6 and D. Bednarski2 ABSTRACT A global disk oscillation implemented in the viscous decretion disk (VDD) model has been used to reproduce most of the observed properties of the well known Be star ζ Tau. 48 Librae shares several similarities with ζ Tau – they are both early-type Be stars, they display shell characteristics in their spectra, and they exhibit cyclic V/R variations – but has some marked differences as well, such as a much denser and more extended disk, a much longer V/R cycle, and the absence of the so-called triple-peak features. We aim to reproduce the photometric, polarimetric, and spectroscopic observables of 48 Librae with a self-consistent model, and to test the global oscillation scenario for this target. Our calculations are carried out with the three-dimensional NLTE radiative transfer code HDUST. We employ a rotationally deformed, gravity-darkened central star, surrounded by a disk whose unperturbed state is given by the VDD model. A two-dimensional global oscillation code is then used to calculate the disk perturbation, and superimpose it on the unperturbed disk. A very good, self-consistent fit to the time- averaged properties of the disk is obtained with the VDD. The calculated perturbation has a period P = 12 yr, which agrees with the observed period, and the behaviour of the V/R cycle is well reproduced by the perturbed model.

  • Planetary Migration and the Origin of the 2:1 and 3:2 (Near)-Resonant Population of Close-In Exoplanets X

S. Ramos1; 2, C. Charalambous1, P. Benítez-Llambay1; 2, and C. Beaugé1 1 Instituto de Astronomía Teórica y Experimental, Observatorio Astronómico, Universidad Nacional de Córdoba, Laprida 854, X5000BGR, Córdoba, Argentina e-mail: [email protected] 2 Niels Bohr International Academy, The Niels Bohr Institute, Blegdamsvej 17, 2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark Received 2 September 2016 / Accepted 4 April 2017 ABSTRACT We present an analytical and numerical study of the orbital migration and resonance capture of fictitious two-planet systems with masses in the super-Earth range undergoing Type-I migration. We find that, depending on the flare index and proximity to the central star, the average value of the period ratio, P2=P1, between both planets may show a significant deviation with respect to the nominal value. For planets trapped in the 2:1 commensurability, offsets may reach values on the order of 0:1 for orbital periods on the order of 1 day, while systems in the 3:2 mean-motion resonance (MMR) show much smaller offsets for all values of the semimajor axis. These properties are in good agreement with the observed distribution of near-resonant exoplanets, independent of their detection method. We show that 2:1-resonant systems far from the star, such as HD 82943 and HR 8799, are characterized by very small resonant offsets, while higher values are typical of systems discovered by Kepler with orbital periods approximately a few days.
