A team of astronomers from the Instituto Astrofisica Canarias (IAC) have found an interesting shadow cast by a forming star system. Team member Dr Basmah Riaz, an ER fellow for the Marie Curie CONSTELLATION network, will present the results of their work on Thursday 23rd April in a poster at the Euro...
Twenty-four unusual stars, 18 of them newly discovered, have been observed in new Hubble telescope images. The stars are white dwarfs, a common type of dead star, but they are odd because they are made of helium rather than the usual carbon and oxygen. This is the first extensive sequence of helium-c...
While its name sounds like a disease you'd catch after a weekend of incautious living, iota Cancri (pronounced "eye-OH-tah KAN-kree") is actually a pretty double star in the northern part of the constellation Cancer, the Crab. This pair is easy to separate and striking in a small telesc...
Title: Re-identification of G35.6-0.4 as a supernova remnant Authors: D. A. Green G35.6-0.4 is an extended radio source in the Galactic plane which has previously been identified as either a supernova remnant or an HII region. Observations from the VLA Galactic Plane Survey at 1.4 GHz with a resol...
Title: Radial velocity study of the CP star Epsilon Ursae Majoris Authors: N.A. Sokolov In this Letter, the radial velocity variability of the chemically peculiar star Epsilon Ursae Majoris (epsilon UMa) from the sharp cores of the hydrogen lines is investigated. This study is based on the ELODIE...
