VLA multifrequency observations of RS CVn binaries
We present multiepoch Very Large Array (VLA) observations at 1.4 GHz, 4.9 GHz, 8.5 GHz and 14.9 GHz for a sample of eight RS CVn binary systems. Circular polarization measurements of these systems are also reported. Most of the fluxes observed are consistent with incoherent emission from mildly relativistic electrons. Several systems show an increase of the degree of circular polarization with ...
متن کاملMagnetic reconnection: flares and coronal heating in Active Galactic Nuclei
A magnetically–structured accretion disk corona, generated by buoyancy instability in the disk, can account for observations of flare–like events in Active Galactic Nuclei. We examine how Petschek magnetic reconnection, associated with MHD turbulence, can result in a violent release of energy and heat the magnetically closed regions of the corona up to canonical X-ray emitting temperatures. X-r...
متن کاملLattice models for solar flares and coronal heating
Solar coronal heating is a complex problem due to the variety of scales and physical phenomena involved, and intricacy of “boundary conditions”. Lattice models and self-organized criticality provide means to model phenomenologically some of the physics involved over a wide range of scales, and reproduce certain statistical features of solar flares. Furthermore, these models offer a basis for th...
متن کاملMusicos 1998: Optical and X-rays Observations of Flares on the Rs Cvn Binary Hr 1099
We present simultaneous and continuous observations of Hα, Hβ, Na i D1, D2 and He i D3 lines of the chromospherically active binary HR 1099. We have observed HR 1099 for more than 3 weeks almost continuously and monitored two flares. An increase in Hα, Ca ii H & K, Hβ, Hei D3 and Hei λ6678 and a strong filling-in of the Nai D1, D2 and Mgi b triplet during one of the flares are observed. We have...
متن کاملA Study of the Coronal Plasma in RS CVn binary systems : HR 1099 and co
XMM-Newton has been performing comprehensive studies of X-ray luminous RS CVn binary systems in its calibration and guaranteed time programs. We present results from ongoing investigations in the context of a systematic study of coronal emission from RS CVns. We concentrate here on coronal abundances and investigate the abundance pattern in RS CVn binaries as a function of activity and average ...
