Blueshifted hydrogen emission and shock wave of RR Lyrae variables in SDSS and LAMOST

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Xiao-Wei Duan, Xiaodian Chen, Weijia Sun, Licai Deng, Huawei Zhang | Summary: Hydrogen emissions of RR Lyrae variables are the imprints of shock waves traveling through their atmospheres. We develop a pattern recognition algorithm, which is then applied to single-epoch spectra of SDSS and LAMOST. These two […]

Mock catalogues of emission line galaxies based on the local mass density in dark-matter only simulations

Kavli Affiliate: Masahiro Takada | First 5 Authors: Ken Osato, Takahiro Nishimichi, Masahiro Takada, , | Summary: The high-precision measurement of spatial clustering of emission line galaxies (ELGs) is a primary objective for upcoming cosmological spectroscopic surveys. The source of strong emission of ELGs is nebular emission from surrounding ionized gas irradiated by massive short-lived […]

A full spectral-timing model to map the accretion flow in black hole binaries: the low/hard state of MAXI J1820+070

Kavli Affiliate: Tadayuki Takahashi | First 5 Authors: Tenyo Kawamura, Magnus Axelsson, Chris Done, Tadayuki Takahashi, | Summary: The nature and geometry of the accretion flow in the low/hard state of black hole binaries is currently controversial. While most properties are generally explained in the truncated disc/hot inner flow model, the detection of a broad […]

Reverberation in tidal disruption events: dust echoes, coronal emission lines, multi-wavelength cross-correlations, and QPOs

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj R. Pasham | First 5 Authors: Sjoert van Velzen, Dheeraj R. Pasham, Stefanie Komossa, Lin Yan, Erin A. Kara | Summary: Stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered by transient emission due to accretion or shocks of the stellar debris. Yet this luminous flare can be reprocessed by gas or dust […]

Discovery of multiple p-mode pulsation frequencies in the roAp star, HD 86181

Kavli Affiliate: Huawei Zhang | First 5 Authors: Fangfei Shi, Donald W. Kurtz, Daniel L. Holdsworth, Hideyuki Saio, Margarida S. Cunha | Summary: We report the frequency analysis of a known roAp star, HD 86181 (TIC 469246567), with new inferences from TESS data. We derive the rotation frequency to be $nu_{rot}$ = 0.48753 $pm$ 0.00001d$^{-1}$. […]

Probing Protoplanetary Disk Winds with C II Absorption

Kavli Affiliate: Gregory J. Herczeg | First 5 Authors: Ziyan Xu, Gregory J. Herczeg, Christopher M. Johns-Krull, Kevin France, | Summary: We present an analysis of wind absorption in the C II ${lambda}1335$ doublet towards 40 classical T Tauri stars with archival far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra obtained by the Hubble Space Telescope. Absorption features produced by […]

Broadband X-Ray Observations of the 2018 Outburst of the Changing-Look Active Galactic Nucleus NGC 1566

Kavli Affiliate: Claudio Ricci | First 5 Authors: Arghajit Jana, Neeraj Kumari, Prantik Nandi, Sachindra Naik, Arka Chatterjee | Summary: We study the nature of the changing-look Active Galactic Nucleus NGC 1566 during its June 2018 outburst. During the outburst, the X-ray intensity of the source rises up to ~25-30 times compared to its quiescent […]
