Goss† *Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Iowa, Van Allen Hall, Iowa City, Iowa 52240, USA **ETH Zurich, Institute of Astronomy, 8093 Zurich, Switzerland †National Radio Astronomy Observatory, Pete V. Domenici Science Operations Center, 1003 Lopezville Road, Socorro, New Mexico 87801, USA The close binary Algol contains a radio-bright K subgiant star in a very close (0.062 AU), rapid (2.86 day) orbit with a main sequence B8 star. Since the rotation periods of the two stars are tidally locked to the orbital period, the consequent rapid rotation drives a robust magnetic dynamo. A large body of evidence points to the existence of an extended, complex coronal magnetosphere originating at the cooler K subgiant1–4. The detailed morphology of the subgiant’s corona and its possible interaction with its companion are unknown, though theory predicts that the coronal plasma should be confined in magnetic loop structure5, as seen on the Sun. Here we report multi-epoch radio imaging of the Algol system, in which we see a large, persistent coronal loop approximately one subgiant diameter in height, whose base is straddling the subgiant and whose apex is oriented toward the B star. This strongly suggests that a persistent asymmetric magnetic field structure is aligned between the two stars. The loop is larger than anticipated theoretically6, 7, but the size may be a result of a magnetic interaction between the two stars. 1 We made six twelve-hour observations of Algol during a period from 6 April to 17 August 2008 with the High Sensitivity Array (HSA), a global very long baseline interferometer array.

  • The Rossiter–Mclaughlin Effect in Exoplanet Research
    The Rossiter–McLaughlin effect in Exoplanet Research Amaury H.M.J. Triaud Abstract The Rossiter–McLaughlin effect occurs during a planet’s transit. It pro- vides the main means of measuring the sky-projected spin–orbit angle between a planet’s orbital plane, and its host star’s equatorial plane. Observing the Rossiter– McLaughlin effect is now a near routine procedure. It is an important element in the orbital characterisation of transiting exoplanets. Measurements of the spin–orbit an- gle have revealed a surprising diversity, far from the placid, Kantian and Laplacian ideals, whereby planets form, and remain, on orbital planes coincident with their star’s equator. This chapter will review a short history of the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect, how it is modelled, and will summarise the current state of the field before de- scribing other uses for a spectroscopic transit, and alternative methods of measuring the spin–orbit angle. Introduction The Rossiter–McLaughlin effect is the detection of a planetary transit using spec- troscopy. It appears as an anomalous radial-velocity variation happening over the Doppler reflex motion that an orbiting planet imparts on its rotating host star (Fig.1). The shape of the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect contains information about the ratio of the sizes between the planet and its host star, the rotational speed of the star, the impact parameter and the angle l (historically called b, where b = −l), which is the sky-projected spin–orbit angle. The Rossiter–McLaughlin effect was first reported for an exoplanet, in the case of HD 209458 b, by Queloz et al.(2000).

    Exoplanets PoS(Bash11)002 Simon Albrecht∗ Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA E-mail: [email protected] In this paper I will discuss the current knowledge we have on planets orbiting other stars than our sun: exoplanets. Our ability to learn about exoplanets depends on the method we choose to search for them. Therefore I will give a short overview of the different detection techniques that are used to find planets. Special emphasis is placed on two techniques, radial velocity search and transit search. I will also focus on a long standing riddle of the field: The occurrence of gas giant planets on orbits with periods of only a few days (Hot-Jupiters). These planets are similar to Jupiter but orbit their stars much closer than even Mercury orbits our own sun. The detection of these Hot-Jupiters was a surprise, as it is thought that they cannot form so close to their stars. Recent measurements of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect helped to shed light on the formation and evolution of these systems. Finally I will highlight some exciting new developments and recent detections of exoplanets in extreme environments. Frank N.
