Stellar Radio Astrophysics

چکیده
Radio emission has been detected from all the stages of stellar evolution across the HR Diagram. Its presence reveals both astrophysical phenomena and stellar activity which, otherwise, would not be detectable by other means. The development of large, sensitive interferometers has allowed us to resolve the radio structure of several stellar systems, providing insights into the mass transfer process in close binary systems. I review the main characteristics of the radio emission from several kinds of stars, paying special attention to those cases where such an emission originates in relativistic jets.

The Contributions of the VLA to the Study of Radio Stars
This review 1 is a futile attempt to cover developments in the eld of stellar radio astronomy (across the whole HR diagram) which have been innuenced by VLA observations. The VLA has completely revolutionized the eld; it can be argued that stellar radio astronomy would barely exist without the VLA. Diierent areas of physics and stellar astrophysics which can be addressed with VLA observations a...
متن کاملMid - infrared Identification of 6 cm Radio Source Counterparts in the Extended Groth Strip
A new 6 cm survey of almost 0.6 deg to a limit of 0.55 mJy/beam (10σ) finds 37 isolated radio sources and 7 radio source pairs (not necessarily physical companions). IRAC counterparts are identified for at least 92% of the radio sources within the area of deep IRAC coverage, which includes 31 isolated sources and 6 pairs. This contrasts with an identification rate of <74% to R < 23.95 in visibl...
متن کاملSn1998bw/grb980425 and Radio Supernovae
The unusual supernova SN1998bw, which is thought to be related to the γray burster GRB980425, is a possible link between the two classes of objects. Analyzing the extensive radio emission data avaliable for SN1998bw, we are able to describe its time evolution within the well established framework available for the analysis of radio emission from supernovae. This then allows description of a num...
متن کاملPeriodic Bursts of Coherent Radio Emission from an Ultracool Dwarf
We report the detection of periodic (p = 1.96 hours) bursts of extremely bright, 100% circularly polarized, coherent radio emission from the M9 dwarf TVLM 513-46546. Simultaneous photometric monitoring observations have established this periodicity to be the rotation period of the dwarf. These bursts, which were not present in previous observations of this target, confirm that ultracool dwarfs ...
متن کاملNuclear and High-energy Astrophysics
There has never been a more exciting time in the overlapping areas of nuclear physics, particle physics and relativistic astrophysics than today. Orbiting observatories such as the Hubble Space Telescope, Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE), Chandra X-ray satellite, and the X-ray Multi Mirror Mission (XMM) have extended our vision tremendously, allowing us to see vistas with an unprecedented cla...
