Called “Cool Stars, Stellar Systems, and the Sun,” the meeting empha- sized the solar stellar connection and focused discussion on “several topics … in which the similarity is manifest: the structures of chromospheres and coronae, stellar activity, and the phenomena of mass loss,” according to the preface of the resulting, “Special Report of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.” We could easily have chosen the same topics for this meeting. Over the summer of 1980, the group met again in Bonas, France and then back in Cambridge in 1981. Nearly 40 years on, I am comfortable saying these workshops have evolved to be the premier conference series for cool star research. Cool Stars has been held largely biennially, alternating between North America and Europe. Over that time, the field of stellar astro- physics has been upended several times, first by results from Hubble, then ROSAT, then Keck and other large aperture ground-based adaptive optics telescopes.

    Astronomy & Astrophysics Review manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Accurate masses and radii of normal stars: Modern results and applications G. Torres · J. Andersen · A. Gim´enez Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract This paper presents and discusses a critical compilation of accurate, fun- damental determinations of stellar masses and radii. We have identified 95 detached binary systems containing 190 stars (94 eclipsing systems, and α Centauri) that satisfy our criterion that the mass and radius of both stars be known to ±3% or better. All are non-interacting systems, so the stars should have evolved as if they were single. This sample more than doubles that of the earlier similar review by Andersen (1991), extends the mass range at both ends and, for the first time, includes an extragalactic binary. In every case, we have examined the original data and recomputed the stellar parameters with a consistent set of assumptions and physical constants. To these we add interstellar reddening, effective temperature, metal abundance, rotational velocity and apsidal motion determinations when available, and we compute a number of other physical parameters, notably luminosity and distance. These accurate physical parameters reveal the effects of stellar evolution with un- precedented clarity, and we discuss the use of the data in observational tests of stellar evolution models in some detail. Earlier findings of significant structural differences between moderately fast-rotating, mildly active stars and single stars, ascribed to the presence of strong magnetic and spot activity, are confirmed beyond doubt. We also show how the best data can be used to test prescriptions for the subtle interplay be- tween convection, diffusion, and other non-classical effects in stellar models.

  • Supernova Remnants: the X-Ray Perspective
    Supernova remnants: the X-ray perspective Jacco Vink Abstract Supernova remnants are beautiful astronomical objects that are also of high scientific interest, because they provide insights into supernova explosion mechanisms, and because they are the likely sources of Galactic cosmic rays. X-ray observations are an important means to study these objects. And in particular the advances made in X-ray imaging spectroscopy over the last two decades has greatly increased our knowledge about supernova remnants. It has made it possible to map the products of fresh nucleosynthesis, and resulted in the identification of regions near shock fronts that emit X-ray synchrotron radiation. Since X-ray synchrotron radiation requires 10-100 TeV electrons, which lose their energies rapidly, the study of X-ray synchrotron radiation has revealed those regions where active and rapid particle acceleration is taking place. In this text all the relevant aspects of X-ray emission from supernova remnants are reviewed and put into the context of supernova explosion properties and the physics and evolution of su- pernova remnants. The first half of this review has a more tutorial style and discusses the basics of supernova remnant physics and X-ray spectroscopy of the hot plasmas they contain. This in- cludes hydrodynamics, shock heating, thermal conduction, radiation processes, non-equilibrium ionization, He-like ion triplet lines, and cosmic ray acceleration. The second half offers a review of the advances made in field of X-ray spectroscopy of supernova remnants during the last 15 year. This period coincides with the availability of X-ray imaging spectrometers. In addition, I discuss the results of high resolution X-ray spectroscopy with the Chandra and XMM-Newton gratings.

  • Automatic Photometric Processing Methods for Star Variability Identification
    Automatic photometric processing methods for star variability identification Sergey Bratarchuk1*, Zlata Potiļicina2 1RTU MTAF AERTI, Lomonosova Str, 1v, Riga, LV-1003, Latvia 2Longenesis, Hong-Kong *Corresponding author’s e-mail: [email protected] Received 30 March 2019, www.cmnt.lv Abstract Key words In the task of variable star detection exists a problem of missing data. Computer vision, Variable stars, By using shared telescope networks like LCO, users often face the Cepheids, image processing concurrence for the observation time. This concurrence does not let to make a lot of photos of the same part of the sky. The author of the research proposes a new method for the solution of the missing data or unevenly based data problem in the task of variable stars’ detection. Method is based on the addition of your own variable star data by using the data of other researchers. Author suggests an algorithm that identifies the star of interest on the series of photos. Algorithm automatically identifies the stars on the different images independently from the shift or rotation of the stars on the image. Then the algorithm extracts the data about the flux and magnitude of the stars on the image. In this way, by getting data about the magnitude and flux of the star from different sources, it is possible to fill the gaps in data that will increase the probability that a star will be identified as a variable one. 1 Introduction century. For next centuries, it was only possible to conduct observational studies the brightest A variable star is a star whose apparent stars in the sky.

The primary observational data set is a spectrum taken with the Chandra X-ray Observatory High Energy Transmission Grating in 2006, though we compare it to all the other observations of this source taken so far by this instrument. We show that the density must be 1012 cm−3 in the region responsible for most of the emission. We discuss the influence of the dust scattering halo on the broadband spectrum, and we argue that dust scattering and extinction is not the most likely origin for the narrow feature seen near the Si K edge.

The size of the circles is proportional to the size of the planets, while the colors range from orange for planets larger than Jupiter, to blue for planets smaller than Earth. The eight planets in the solar system are shown in white. PREFACE When doing astronomy for a few years, at some point you inevitably find yourself dragged down to tiny details - stuck at a computer, writing, calcu- lating, computing. It can be easy to forget about cool science. But there is a cure! Fly to Gran Canaria. Ignore all the tour operators and the families on their way to an all-inclusive hotel, instead, take the next plane to La Palma. Say hello to the beach. Drive up the Roque de los Muchachos: enjoy an hour cruising up on the windy road from sea level up to 2000 meter.
