    Accepted in ApJ A Preprint typeset using LTEX style emulateapj v. 04/17/13 DISK-LOSS AND DISK-RENEWAL PHASES IN CLASSICAL BE STARS. II. CONTRASTING WITH STABLE AND VARIABLE DISKS Zachary H. Draper1,2, John P. Wisniewski3, Karen S. Bjorkman4, Marilyn R. Meade5, Xavier Haubois6,7, Bruno C. Mota6, Alex C. Carciofi6, Jon E. Bjorkman4 Accepted in ApJ ABSTRACT Recent observational and theoretical studies of classical Be stars have established the utility of polarization color diagrams (PCD) in helping to constrain the time-dependent mass decretion rates of these systems. We expand on our pilot observational study of this phenomenon, and report the detailed analysis of a long-term (1989-2004) spectropolarimetric survey of 9 additional classical Be stars, including systems exhibiting evidence of partial disk-loss/disk-growth episodes as well as sys- tems exhibiting long-term stable disks. After carefully characterizing and removing the interstellar polarization along the line of sight to each of these targets, we analyze their intrinsic polarization be- havior. We find that many steady-state Be disks pause at the top of the PCD, as predicted by theory. We also observe sharp declines in the Balmer jump polarization for later spectral type, near edge-on steady-state disks, again as recently predicted by theory, likely caused when the base density of the disk is very high, and the outer region of the edge-on disk starts to self absorb a significant number of Balmer jump photons. The intrinsic V -band polarization and polarization position angle of γ Cas exhibits variations that seem to phase with the orbital period of a known one-armed density structure in this disk, similar to the theoretical predictions of Halonen & Jones.

Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Prof. Dr. Alex Cavaliéri Carciofi, for the patient guidance, encouragement and advice he has provided throughout my time as his student. I have been extremely lucky to have a supervisor who cared so much about my work, and who responded to my questions and queries so promptly. I would also like to thank every body at IAG who helped me scientifically or technically. In particular I would like to thank Dr. Daniel Moser Faes for his constant helps at different points of this thesis. It would have been very difficult for me to take this work to completion without his incredible support and advice. I must express my sincere gratitude to Minoo, my wife, for her continued support, encoura- gement and patience for experiencing all of the ups and downs of my research time.

  • Binocular Challenges
    This page intentionally left blank Cosmic Challenge Listing more than 500 sky targets, both near and far, in 187 challenges, this observing guide will test novice astronomers and advanced veterans alike. Its unique mix of Solar System and deep-sky targets will have observers hunting for the Apollo lunar landing sites, searching for satellites orbiting the outermost planets, and exploring hundreds of star clusters, nebulae, distant galaxies, and quasars. Each target object is accompanied by a rating indicating how difficult the object is to find, an in-depth visual description, an illustration showing how the object realistically looks, and a detailed finder chart to help you find each challenge quickly and effectively. The guide introduces objects often overlooked in other observing guides and features targets visible in a variety of conditions, from the inner city to the dark countryside. Challenges are provided for viewing by the naked eye, through binoculars, to the largest backyard telescopes. Philip S. Harrington is the author of eight previous books for the amateur astronomer, including Touring the Universe through Binoculars, Star Ware, and Star Watch. He is also a contributing editor for Astronomy magazine, where he has authored the magazine’s monthly “Binocular Universe” column and “Phil Harrington’s Challenge Objects,” a quarterly online column on Astronomy.com. He is an Adjunct Professor at Dowling College and Suffolk County Community College, New York, where he teaches courses in stellar and planetary astronomy.
