Для 37 гиперболических комет и 91 транснептунового планетного тела значения MOID посчитаны. Показано, что гиперболические кометы, по сравнению с другими, имеют большую близость с ТНО. Такая же задача решена относительно гиперболических комет и неизвестных планет. Результаты расчетов показывают, что гиперболические кометы могут играть значительную роль в поиске таких планет.

  • Dynamical Dust Traps in Misaligned Circumbinary Discs: Analytical Theory and Numerical Simulations
    MNRAS 000,1–10 (2021) Preprint 24 March 2021 Compiled using MNRAS LATEX style file v3.0 Dynamical dust traps in misaligned circumbinary discs: analytical theory and numerical simulations Cristiano Longarini,1¢ Giuseppe Lodato,1 Claudia Toci1 and Hossam Aly2 1Dipartimento di Fisica, Università degli Studi di Milano, via Celoria 16, 20133 Milano, Italy 2Univ Lyon, Univ Claude Bernard Lyon 1, Ens de Lyon, CNRS, Centre de Recherche Astrophysique de Lyon UMR5574, F-69230, Saint-Genis-Laval, France Accepted XXX. Received YYY; in original form ZZZ ABSTRACT Recent observations have shown that circumbinary discs can be misaligned with respect to the binary orbital plane.The lack of spherical symmetry, together with the non-planar geometry of these systems, causes differential precession which might induce the propagation of warps. While gas dynamics in such environments is well understood, little is known about dusty discs. In this work, we analytically study the problem of dust traps formation in misaligned circumbinary discs. We find that pile-ups may be induced not by pressure maxima, as the usual dust traps, but by a difference in precession rates between the gas and dust. Indeed, this difference makes the radial drift inefficient in two locations, leading to the formation of two dust rings whose position depends on the system parameters. This phenomenon is likely to occur to marginally coupled dust particles ¹St & 1º as both the effect of gravitational and drag force are considerable. We then perform a suite of three-dimensional SPH numerical simulations to compare the results with our theoretical predictions. We explore the parameter space, varying stellar mass ratio, disc thickness, radial extension, and we find a general agreement with the analytical expectations.

  • The Study of Astronomical Transients in the Infrared
    The Study of Astronomical Transients in the Infrared by Robert Strausbaugh A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved May 2019 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Nathaniel Butler, Chair Rolf Jansen Phillip Mauskopf Rogier Windhorst ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY August 2019 ©2019 Robert Strausbaugh All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT Several key, open questions in astrophysics can be tackled by searching for and mining large datasets for transient phenomena. The evolution of massive stars and compact objects can be studied over cosmic time by identifying supernovae (SNe) and gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in other galaxies and determining their redshifts. Modeling GRBs and their afterglows to probe the jets of GRBs can shed light on the emission mechanism, rate, and energetics of these events. In Chapter 1, I discuss the current state of astronomical transient study, including sources of interest, instrumentation, and data reduction techniques, with a focus on work in the infrared. In Chapter 2, I present original work published in the Proceedings of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, testing InGaAs infrared detectors for astronomical use (Strausbaugh, Jackson, and Butler 2018); highlights of this work include observing the exoplanet transit of HD189773B, and detecting the nearby supernova SN2016adj with an InGaAs detector mounted on a small telescope at ASU. In Chapter 3, I discuss my work on GRB jets published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters, highlighting the interesting case of GRB 160625B (Strausbaugh et al. 2019), where I interpret a late-time bump in the GRB afterglow lightcurve as evidence for a bright-edged jet.

  • Pulsating Components in Binary and Multiple Stellar Systems---A
    Research in Astron. & Astrophys. Vol.15 (2015) No.?, 000–000 (Last modified: — December 6, 2014; 10:26 ) Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics Pulsating Components in Binary and Multiple Stellar Systems — A Catalog of Oscillating Binaries ∗ A.-Y. Zhou National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100012, China; [email protected] Abstract We present an up-to-date catalog of pulsating binaries, i.e. the binary and multiple stellar systems containing pulsating components, along with a statistics on them. Compared to the earlier compilation by Soydugan et al.(2006a) of 25 δ Scuti-type ‘oscillating Algol-type eclipsing binaries’ (oEA), the recent col- lection of 74 oEA by Liakos et al.(2012), and the collection of Cepheids in binaries by Szabados (2003a), the numbers and types of pulsating variables in binaries are now extended. The total numbers of pulsating binary/multiple stellar systems have increased to be 515 as of 2014 October 26, among which 262+ are oscillating eclipsing binaries and the oEA containing δ Scuti componentsare updated to be 96. The catalog is intended to be a collection of various pulsating binary stars across the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram. We reviewed the open questions, advances and prospects connecting pulsation/oscillation and binarity. The observational implication of binary systems with pulsating components, to stellar evolution theories is also addressed. In addition, we have searched the Simbad database for candidate pulsating binaries. As a result, 322 candidates were extracted. Furthermore, a brief statistics on Algol-type eclipsing binaries (EA) based on the existing catalogs is given. We got 5315 EA, of which there are 904 EA with spectral types A and F.

  • GW Orionis: a Pre-Main-Sequence Triple with a Warped Disk and a Torn-Apart Ring As Benchmark for Disk Hydrodynamics
    main-sequence (PMS) multiple systems provide us with a unique laboratory (for general reviews on PMS binaries GW Orionis: and multiples see for instance Dˆuchene & Kraus 2013 and A pre-main-sequence triple with a Reipurth et al. 2014). For these systems we are able to warped disk and a torn-apart ring as directly measure the 3-dimensional orbits and dynamical benchmark for disk hydrodynamics masses of the perturbing bodies and can image how the disk responds to the perturbation. Stefan Kraus, University of Exeter (email: [email protected]) One system that has the potential to serve as such a “rosetta stone” for hydrodynamic studies, is the PMS triple GW Orionis. This system is one of the brightest and best- studied T Tauri multiple systems. It is located in the λ Orionis star-forming region (388 pc; Kounkel et al. 2017) and has an age of ∼ 1 million years (Calvet et al. 2004). With orbital periods of ∼ 9 months and 11 years, the or- bital periods and separations are just in the right range to enable a full orbit characterisation, while expecting at the same time strong interactions between the disk and the stars. The triple star system GW Ori is long known to be a single-lined spectroscopic binary with a 242 day period (Mathieu et al. 1991). Prato et al. (2018) reported the detection of lines associated with Pre-main-sequence multiples as benchmark the secondary. Observations with the IOTA infrared inter- for disk hydrodynamics ferometer resolved the inner binary and discovered a third component (Berger et al.

  • The Detectability of Nightside City Lights on Exoplanets
    Draft version September 6, 2021 Typeset using LATEX twocolumn style in AASTeX63 The Detectability of Nightside City Lights on Exoplanets Thomas G. Beatty1 1Department of Astronomy and Steward Observatory, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ 85721; [email protected] ABSTRACT Next-generation missions designed to detect biosignatures on exoplanets will also be capable of plac- ing constraints on the presence of technosignatures (evidence for technological life) on these same worlds. Here, I estimate the detectability of nightside city lights on habitable, Earth-like, exoplan- ets around nearby stars using direct-imaging observations from the proposed LUVOIR and HabEx observatories. I use data from the Soumi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite to determine the surface flux from city lights at the top of Earth's atmosphere, and the spectra of commercially available high-power lamps to model the spectral energy distribution of the city lights. I consider how the detectability scales with urbanization fraction: from Earth's value of 0.05%, up to the limiting case of an ecumenopolis { or planet-wide city. I then calculate the minimum detectable urbanization fraction using 300 hours of observing time for generic Earth-analogs around stars within 8 pc of the Sun, and for nearby known potentially habitable planets. Though Earth itself would not be detectable by LUVOIR or HabEx, planets around M-dwarfs close to the Sun would show detectable signals from city lights for urbanization levels of 0.4% to 3%, while city lights on planets around nearby Sun-like stars would be detectable at urbanization levels of & 10%. The known planet Proxima b is a particu- larly compelling target for LUVOIR A observations, which would be able to detect city lights twelve times that of Earth in 300 hours, an urbanization level that is expected to occur on Earth around the mid-22nd-century.
