- Description:
- FU Orionis-type objects (FUors) are young low-mass stars undergoing powerful accretion outbursts. The increased accretion is often accompanied by collimated jets and energetic, large-scale molecular outflows. The extra heating during the outburst may also induce detectable geometrical, chemical, and mineralogical changes in the circumstellar material, affecting possible planet formation around these objects. V346 Nor is a southern FUor with peculiar spectral characteristics. Decades after the beginning of its outburst, it unexpectedly underwent a fading event around 2010 due to a decrease in the mass accretion rate onto the star by at least two orders of magnitude. Here we present optical and near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy obtained after the minimum. Our light curves show a gradual re-brightening of V346 Nor, with its Ks-band brightness only 1.5mag below the outburst brightness level. Our Very Large Telescope (VLT)/XSHOOTER spectroscopic observations display several strong forbidden emission lines toward the source from various metals and molecular hydrogen, suggesting the launch of a new jet. Our N-band spectrum obtained with VLT/VISIR outlines a deeper silicate absorption feature than before, indicating that the geometry of the circumstellar medium has changed in the post-outburst period compared to peak brightness.

- Description:
- The ephemeris were produced by simulating the ejection of meteoroids from the sunlit hemisphere of cometary nuclei, typically from 0 to 3 au, followed by the propagation of orbits of meteoroids in the Solar System, taking into account the gravity of the Sun, the 8 planets, Pluto, and the Moon, as well as the radiation pressure and the Poynting-Robertson drag. Note that asteroid parent bodies were considered as active (i.e. comet-like bodies) even if they are not active today. The showers are predicted when a planet enters a large enough set of meteoroids, at a distance less than typically 0.01 au.

- Description:
- The main goal of this work is to form a large, deep and representative sample of dwarf galaxies residing in voids of the nearby Universe. The formed sample is the basement for the comprehensive mass study of the galaxy content, their evolutionary status, clustering and dynamics with respect to their counterparts residing in more typical, denser regions and for study of void small-scale substructures. We present 25 voids over the entire sky within 25Mpc from the Local Group. They are defined as groups of lumped empty spheres bounded by `luminous' galaxies with the absolute K-band magnitudes brighter than -22.0. The identified void regions include the Local Void and other known nearby voids. The nearest nine voids occupy a substantial part of the Local Volume. Of the total number of 6792 cataloged galaxies in the considered volume, 1354 objects fall into 25 nearby voids. Of this general void galaxy sample, we separate the sub-sample of 'inner' void galaxies, residing deeper in voids, with distances to the nearest luminous galaxy DNN>2.0Mpc. The 'inner' galaxy sample includes 1088 objects, mostly dwarfs with MB distribution peaked near -15.0 and extending down to -7.5mag. Of them, 195 fall in the Local Volume (space within R=11Mpc). We present the general statistical properties of this Nearby Void Galaxy sample and discuss the issues related to the sample content and the prospects of its use.

- Description:
- We analyse photometry from deep B-band images of 59 void galaxies in the Void Galaxy Survey (VGS), together with their near-infrared 3.6{mu}m and 4.5{mu}m Spitzer photometry. The VGS galaxies constitute a sample of void galaxies that were selected by a geometric-topological procedure from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 data release, and which populate the deep interior of voids. Our void galaxies span a range of absolute B-magnitude from M_B_=-15.5 to -20, while at the 3.6{mu}m band their magnitudes range from M_3.6_=-18 to -24. Their B-[3.6] colour and structural parameters indicate these are star-forming galaxies. A good reflection of the old stellar population, the near-infrared band photometry also provide a robust estimate of the stellar mass, which for the VGS galaxies we confirm to be smaller than 3x10^10^M_{sun}_. In terms of the structural parameters and morphology, our findings align with other studies in that our VGS galaxy sample consists mostly of small late-type galaxies. Most of them are similar to Sd-Sm galaxies, although a few are irregularly shaped galaxies. The sample even includes two early-type galaxies, one of which is an AGN. Their Sersic indices are nearly all smaller than n=2 in both bands and they also have small half-light radii. In all, we conclude that the principal impact of the void environment on the galaxies populating them mostly concerns their low stellar mass and small size.

- Description:
- We present a new volume-limited sample of L0-T8 dwarfs out to 25pc defined entirely by parallaxes, using our recent measurements from UKIRT/WFCAM along with Gaia DR2 and literature parallaxes. With 369 members, our sample is the largest parallax-defined volume-limited sample of L and T dwarfs to date, yielding the most precise space densities for such objects. We find the local L0-T8 dwarf population includes 5.5%{+/-}1.2% young objects (<~200Myr) and 2.6%{+/-}1.6% subdwarfs, as expected from recent studies favoring representative ages <~4Gyr for the ultracool field population. This is also the first volume-limited sample to comprehensively map the transition from L to T dwarfs (spectral types ~L8-T4). After removing binaries, we identify a previously unrecognized, statistically significant (>4.4{sigma}) gap ~0.5mag wide in (J-K)_MKO_ colors in the L/T transition, i.e., a lack of such objects in our volume-limited sample, implying a rapid phase of atmospheric evolution. In contrast, the most successful models of the L/T transition to date-the "hybrid" models of Saumon & Marley-predict a pileup of objects at the same colors where we find a deficit, demonstrating the challenge of modeling the atmospheres of cooling brown dwarfs. Our sample illustrates the insights to come from even larger parallax-selected samples from the upcoming Legacy Survey of Space and Time by the Vera Rubin Obsevatory.

- CDS
- Description:
- In a volume-limited sample of 63 ultracool dwarfs of spectral type M7-M9.5, we have obtained high-resolution spectroscopy with UVES at the Very Large Telescope and HIRES at Keck Observatory. In this first paper we introduce our volume-complete sample from DENIS and 2MASS targets, and we derive radial velocities and space motion. Kinematics of our sample are consistent with the stars being predominantly members of the young disk. The kinematic age of the sample is 3.1Gyr. We find that six of our targets show strong Li lines implying that they are brown dwarfs younger than several hundred million years. Five of the young brown dwarfs were unrecognized before. Comparing the fraction of Li detections to later spectral types, we see a hint of an unexpected local maximum of this fraction at spectral type M9. It is not yet clear whether this maximum is due to insufficient statistics, or to a combination of physical effects including spectral appearance of young brown dwarfs, Li line formation, and the star formation rate at low masses.

- Description:
- One of the greatest uncertainties in modelling the mass-exchange phases during the evolution of a binary system is the amount of mass and angular momentum that has been lost from the system. In order to constrain this problem, a favourable, evolved and detached real binary system is valuable as an example of the end result of this process. We study the 52-day post-mass-exchange eclipsing binary V643 Ori from complete uvby light curves and high-resolution spectra. V643 Ori is double-lined and shows total primary eclipses. The orbit is accurately circular and the rotation of both stars synchronised with the orbit, but the photometry from a single year (1993) shows signs of weak spot activity (0.02mag) around the primary eclipse. We determine accurate masses of 3.3 and 1.9M_{sun}_ from the spectroscopic orbit and solve the four light curves to determine radii of 16 and 21R_{sun}_, using the Wilson-Devinney photometric code. The rotational velocities from the cross-correlation profiles agree well with those computed from the known radii and orbital parameters. All observable parameters are thus very precisely determined, but the masses and radii of V643 Ori are incompatible with undisturbed post-main-sequence evolution. We have attempted to simulate the past evolutionary history of V643 Ori under both conservative and non-conservative Case B mass transfer scenarios. In the non-conservative case we varied the amounts of mass and angular momentum loss needed to arrive at the present masses in a circular 52-day orbit, keeping the two stars detached and synchronized as now observed, but without following the evolution of other stellar properties in any detail. Multiple possible solutions were found. Further attempts were made using both the BSE formalism and the binary MESA code in order to track stellar evolution more closely, and make use of the measured radii and temperatures as important additional constraints. Those efforts did not yield satisfactory solutions, possibly due to limitations in handling mass transfer in evolved stars such as these. We remain hopeful that future theoreticians can more fully model the system under realistic conditions.

- Description:
- Table 3 presents the emission line spectrum of V380 Ori in the optical region observed at OHP in January 1995 with a mean resolution of 10000. For the line blends the wavelength and flux (not reddening corrected) of each contributor are given. For the P-Cygni profiles the equivalent widths of the absorption component are also reported. We estimate an error of less than 10% for the strongest lines, 10% to 40% for the weakest lines.

- Description:
- We present a detailed study of McNeil's nebula (V1647 Ori) in its ongoing outburst phase starting from 2008 September to 2013 March. Our 124 nights of photometric observations were carried out in optical V, R, I, and near-infrared J, H, K bands, and 59 nights of medium-resolution spectroscopic observations were done in the 5200-9000{AA} wavelength range. All observations were carried out with the 2m Himalayan Chandra Telescope and 2m IUCAA Girawali Telescope. Our observations show that over the past four and a half years, V1647 Ori and region C near the Herbig-Haro object HH 22A have been undergoing a slow dimming at a rate of ~0.04mag/yr and ~0.05mag/yr, respectively, in R band, which is six times slower than the rate during a similar stage of V1647 Ori in the 2003 outburst. We detected change in flux distribution over the reflection nebula, implying changes in circumstellar matter distribution between the 2003 and 2008 outbursts. Apart from steady wind of velocity ~350km/s, we detected two episodic magnetic reconnection driven winds. Forbidden [OI]{lambda}6300 and [FeII]{lambda}7155 lines were also detected, implying shock regions probably from jets. We tried to explain the outburst timescales of V1647 Ori using the standard models of the FUors kind of outburst and found that pure thermal instability models like Bell and Lin cannot explain the variations in timescales. In the framework of various instability models we conclude that one possible reason for the sudden ending of the 2003 outburst in 2005 November was a low-density region or gap in the inner region (~1AU) of the disk.
