Polarized infrared emission from X-ray binary jets
Near-infrared (NIR) and optical polarimetric observations of a selection of X-ray binaries are presented. The targets were observed using the Very Large...
Polarized resonance line transfer in a spherically symmetric medium with angle-dependent partial frequency redistribution
In a stellar atmosphere, the resonance line polarization arises from scattering of limb-darkened radiation field by atoms. This spectral line polarization gets...
Polarized synchrotron emission in quiescent black hole X-ray transients
We present near-infrared polarimetric observations of the black hole X-ray binaries Swift J1357.2-0933 and A0620-00. In both sources, recent studies have...
Possible detection of a bimodal cloud distribution in the atmosphere of HAT-P-32 A b from multiband photometry
We present high-precision photometry of eight separate transit events in the HAT-P-32 planetary system. One transit event was observed simultaneously by two...
Post maximum light and late time optical imaging polarimetry of type I superluminous supernova 2020znr
Optical imaging polarimetry was conducted on the hydrogen poor superluminous supernova 2020znr during three phases after maximum light (≍ +34 d, +288 d, and...
Post-common envelope binaries from SDSS - III. Seven new orbital periods
We present follow-up spectroscopy and photometry of 11 post-common envelope binary (PCEB) candidates identified from multiple Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)...
Post-common envelope binaries from SDSS - VII. A catalogue of white dwarf-main sequence binaries
We present a catalogue of 1602 white-dwarf-main-sequence (WDMS) binaries from the spectroscopic Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 6 (SDSS DR6). Among these...
Post-common envelope binaries from SDSS - XV. Accurate stellar parameters for a cool 0.4 M⊙ white dwarf and a 0.16 M⊙ M dwarf in a 3 h eclipsing binary
We identify SDSS J121010.1+334722.9 as an eclipsing post-common-envelope binary, with an orbital period of ?, containing a very cool, low-mass, DAZ white dwarf...
Post-common envelope binaries from SDSS - XVI. Long orbital period systems and the energy budget of common envelope evolution
Virtually all close compact binary stars are formed through common envelope (CE) evolution. It is generally accepted that during this crucial evolutionary phase...
