- Description:
- We present the detection, performed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) and the Karl Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), of a fast HI 21-cm outflow in the ultra-luminous infrared galaxy Mrk 231. The outflow is observed as shallow HI absorption blueshifted ~1300 km/s with respect to the systemic velocity and located against the inner kpc of the radio source. The outflowing gas has an estimated column density between 5 and 15x10^18^Tspin.cm^-2^. We derive the Tspin to lie in the range 400-2000 K and the corresponding HI densities are n_HI_~10-100cm^-3^. We also obtained deeper continuum images than previously available. They confirm the complex structure of the radio continuum originating both from the AGN and star formation. At the resolution obtained with the VLA (~1-arcsec) we do not see a kpc-scale jet. Instead, we detect a plateau of emission, likely due to star formation, surrounding the bright nuclear region. We also detect a poorly collimated bridge which may represent the channel feeding the southern lobe. The unprecedented depth of the low-resolution WSRT image reveals radio emission extending 50-arcsec (43kpc) to the south and 20arcsec (17kpc) to the north.

- Description:
- We report the detection of transit timing variations (TTVs) well in excess of one hour in the Kepler multi-planet candidate system KOI 806. This system exhibits transits consistent with three separate planets - a Super-Earth, a Jupiter, and a Saturn - lying very nearly in a 1:2:5 resonance, respectively.

- 8620 DIB equivalent width and extinction

- Description:
- The young stellar cluster Westerlund 1 (Wd 1: l=339.6, b=-0.4) is one of the most massive in the local Universe, but accurate parameters are pending on better determination of its extinction and distance. Based on our photometry and data collected from other sources, we have derived a reddening law for the cluster line-of-sight representative of the Galactic plane (-5{deg}<b<+5{deg}) in the window 0.4-4.8um. The power-law exponent alpha=2.13+/-0.08 is much steeper than those published a decade ago (1.6-1.8) and our index RV=2.50+/-0.04 also differs from them, but in very good agreement with recent works based on deep surveys in the inner Galaxy. As a consequence, the total extinction AKs=0.74+/-0.08 (AV=11.40+/-2.40) is substantially smaller than previous results (0.91-1.13), part of which (AKs=0.63 or AV=9.66) is from the interstellar medium. The extinction in front of the cluster spans a range of AV~8.7 with a gradient increasing from SW to NE across the cluster face, following the same general trend of warm dust distribution. The map of the J-Ks colour index also shows a trend of reddening in this direction. We measured the equivalent width of the diffuse interstellar band at 8620 A (the 'GAIA DIB') for Wd 1 cluster members and derived the relation AKs=0.612EW-0.191EW^2^. This extends the Munari et al. relation, valid for E(B-V)<1, to the non-linear regime (AV>4).

- Differential BVRI light curves of DV Psc

- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present six new BVR_c_I_c_ CCD light curves of a short-period RS CVn binary DV Psc obtained in 2010-2012. The light curve distortions change on both short and long timescales, which is explained by two starspots on the primary component. Moreover, five new flare events were detected and the flare ratio of DV Psc is about 0.082 flares per hour. There is a possible relation between the phases (longitude) of the flares and starspots for all of the available data of late-type binaries, which implies a correlation of the stellar activity of the spots and flares. The cyclic oscillation, with a period of 4.9+/-0.4yr, may result from the magnetic activity cycle, identified by the variability of Max.I-Max.II. Until now, there were no spectroscopic studies of chromospheric activity indicators of the H_{beta}_and H_{gamma}_lines for DV Psc. Our observations of these indicators show that DV Psc is active, with excess emissions. The updated O-C diagram with an observing time span of about 15yr shows an upward parabola, which indicates a secular increase in the orbital period of DV Psc. The orbital period secularly increases at a rate of dP/dt=2.0x10^-7^days/yr, which might be explained by the angular momentum exchanges or mass transfer from the secondary to primary component.

- Differential BVR light curves of DK Cyg

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New CCD photometry is presented for the hot overcontact binary DK Cyg together with reasonable explanations for the light and period variations. Historical light and velocity curves from 1962 to 2012 were simultaneously analyzed with the Wilson-Devinney (W-D) synthesis code. The brightness disturbances were satisfactorily modeled by applying a magnetic cool spot on the primary star. Based on 261 times of minimum light that include 116 new timings and span more than 87 years, a period study reveals that the orbital period has varied due to a periodic oscillation superimposed on an upward parabola. The period and semi-amplitude of the modulation are about 78.1years and 0.0037days, respectively. This detail is interpreted as a light-travel-time effect due to a circumbinary companion with a minimum mass of M_3_=0.065M_{sun}_, within the theoretical limit of ~0.07M_{sun}_ for a brown dwarf star. The observed period increase at a fractional rate of +2.74x10^-10^ is in excellent agreement with that calculated from our W-D synthesis. Mass transfer from the secondary to the primary component is mainly responsible for the secular period change. We examined the evolutionary status of the DK Cyg system from the absolute dimensions.

- Differential BVR light curves of EP And

- Description:
- We present new long-term CCD photometry for EP And acquired during the period 2007-2012. The light curves display total eclipses at primary minima and season-to-season light variability. Our synthesis for all available light curves indicates that the eclipsing pair is a W-type overcontact binary with parameters of q=2.578, i=83.3{deg}, {Delta}T=27K, f=28%, and l_3_=2%-3%. The asymmetric light curves in 2007 were satisfactorily modeled by a cool spot on either of the eclipsing components from a magnetic dynamo. Including our 95 timing measurements, a total of 414 times of minimum light spanning about 82yr was used for a period study. A detailed analysis of the eclipse timing diagram revealed that the orbital period of EP And has varied as a combination of an upward-opening parabola and two periodic variations, with cycle lengths of P_3_=44.6yr and P_4_=1.834yr and semi-amplitudes of K_3_=0.0100days and K_4_=0.0039days, respectively. The observed period increase at a fractional rate of +1.39*10^-10^ is in excellent agreement with that calculated from the W-D code and can be plausibly explained by some combination of mass transfer from the primary to the secondary star and angular momentum loss due to magnetic braking. The most reasonable explanation for both cycles is a pair of light-travel-time effects driven by the possible existence of a third and fourth component with projected masses of M_3_=0.25M_{sun}_ and M_4_=0.90M_{sun}_. The more massive companion could be revealed using high-resolution spectroscopic data extending over the course of a few years and could also be a binary itself. It is possible that the circumbinary objects may have played an important role in the formation and evolution of the eclipsing pair, which would cause it to have a short initial orbital period and thus evolve into an overcontact configuration by angular momentum loss.

- Differential BVR light curves of V407 Peg
- Short Name:

- Description:
- New multiband CCD photometry is presented for V407 Peg; the R_C_ light curves are the first ever compiled. Our light curves, displaying a flat bottom at secondary minimum and an O'Connell effect, were simultaneously analyzed with the radial velocity (RV) curves given by Rucinski et al. The light changes of the system are best modeled using both a hot spot on the secondary star and a third light. The model also represents historical light curves. All available minimum epochs, including our six timing measurements, have been examined and they indicate that the eclipse timing variation is mainly caused by light asymmetries due to the spot activity detected in the light-curve synthesis. The hot spot may be produced as a result of the impact of the gas stream from the primary star. Our light and velocity solutions indicate that V407 Peg is a totally eclipsing A-type overcontact binary with values of q=0.251, i=87.6{deg}, {Delta}T=496K, f=61%, and l_3_=11~16%. Individual masses and radii of both components are determined to be M_1_=1.72M_{sun}_, M_2_=0.43M_{sun}_, R_1_=2.15R_{sun}_, and R_2_=1.21R_{sun}_. These results are very different from previous ones, which is probably caused by the light curves with distorted and inclined eclipses used in those other analyses. The fact that there are no objects optically related to the system and that the seasonal RVs show a large discrepancy in systemic velocity indicates that the third light source most likely arises from a tertiary component orbiting the eclipsing pair.

- Description:
- We present CCD photometry for the Algol-type binary RV Trianguli observed during three nights in 2007 November. The photometric solution was derived from our VR observations by using the Wilson-Devinny program. The results indicated that RV Tri is a semidetached binary with a mass ratio of q=0.306+/-0.005. Based on 236 light minimum times, the orbital period change of RV Tri was analyzed in detail.

- Description:
- To investigate the star spots of the M dwarf GJ 1214, we conducted a multi-color photometric monitoring from 2012 to 2016. We measured the rotation period of the host star, measured an increase in variability amplitude, determined the permanent spot filling factor, the spot temperature contrast and persistent longitudes. We determined the effect of the star spots on the planetary transmission spectrum.

- Description:
- We present all the CCD photometric observations of the {delta} Scuti star V350 Peg performed by us until now. The data have been acquired between July 1997 and October 2002. A large part of it has been analysed and presented previously (Vidal, 2002A&A...394..585V). The new data of 2002 confirm the former conclusion that two frequencies of very similar amplitudes are excited in this star. The entire data set consists of 16191 measurements collected during 48 nights, and may be very helpful to investigate the detailed behaviour of this basically double-mode {delta} Scuti variable if future campaigns are held at a later stage.
