Infrared Studies of Epsilon Aurigae in Eclipse
We report here on a series of medium resolution spectro-photometric observations of the enigmatic long period eclipsing binary epsilon Aurigae, during its eclipse interval 20092011, using near-infrared spectra obtained with SpeX on IRTF, mid-infrared spectra obtained with BASS on AOES and IRTF, MIRSI on IRTF and MIRAC4 on MMT, along with mid-infrared photometry using MIRSI on IRTF and MIRAC4 on...
متن کاملModelling magnetised accretion discs
Some recent results are reviewed that lead us now to believe that accretion discs are basically always magnetised. The main components are Balbus-Hawley and Parker instabilities on the one hand and a dynamo process on the other. A mechanical model for the Balbus-Hawley instability is presented and analysed quantitatively. Three-dimensional simulations are discussed, especially the resulting mag...
متن کاملSelf-gravitating accretion discs
— I review recent progresses in the dynamics and the evolution of self-gravitating accretion discs. Accretion discs are a fundamental component of several astrophysical systems on very diverse scales, and can be found around supermassive black holes in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and also in our Galaxy around stellar mass compact objects and around young stars. Notwithstanding the specific di...
متن کاملStationary population accretion discs
We present stationary models of protostellar population (Pop , for short) accretion discs, compare them to Pop discs, and investigate the influence of the different chemical compositions on the occurence of gravitational, thermal and thermal-viscous instabilities in the discs. In particular in the cooler regions, we find major differences between Pop and Pop discs, both in the st...
متن کاملInter-Eclipse Spectroscopic Snapshot of Epsilon Aurigae with HST
A single-epoch low resolution GHRS spectrum of the eclipsing binary Epsilon Aurigae was obtained while the secondary was orbiting towards eclipse by the primary. The spectrum as recorded between 1175—1461 Å is rich with emission and absorption lines which include stellar and interstellar components. The emission line profiles have the appearance of double-peaked emission with a stronger red com...
