The Contributions of the VLA to the Study of Radio Stars
نویسنده
چکیده
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 are mentioned , including the Sun (brieey). Among the major discoveries is the fact that many main{sequence stars like the Sun possess a nonthermal corona which is completely absent on the Sun.

Forty Years of X-Ray Binaries
In 2012 it was forty years ago that the discovery of the first X-ray binary Centaurus X-3 became known. That same year it was discovered that apart from the High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) there are also Low-Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXBs), and that Cygnus X-1 is most probably a black hole. By 1975 also the new class of Be/X-ray binaries was discovered. After this it took 28 years before ESAs INTE...
متن کاملExpression of VLA1, VLA2 and VLA3 Integrin Molecules in Uterine Endometrium of Infertile Women with Unexplained Aetiology in Ahwaz-Iran
Background: Recent attention has focused on the expression of integrin molecules within the endometrium, and their relation to infertility. Objective: The present prospective study was undertaken to determine whether the endometrium of women with unexplained infertility differs in the expression of very late activation antigens (VLA) from the endometrium of normal fertile women. Methods: Thirty...
متن کاملFirst Resolved Images of the Mira AB Symbiotic Binary at Centimeter Wavelengths
We report the first spatially resolved radio continuum measurements of the Mira AB symbiotic binary system, based on observations obtained with the Very Large Array (VLA). This is the first time that a symbiotic binary has been resolved unambiguously at centimeter wavelengths. We describe the results of VLA monitoring of both stars over a ten month period, together with constraints on their ind...
متن کاملLINEAR PULSATION CHARACTERISTICS OF MIRA VARIABLE STARS
The linear adiabatic pulsation-periods of Mira variable stars have been derived. Approximately 2701[1]models were calculated for M = 0.7 MΘ to 2 MΘ stars with radii from 180 RΘ to 340 RΘ and luminosities from 2800 LΘ to 10,000 LΘ. The chemical composition of all models is (X,Z) = (0.7,0.02). From the result of this study, linear relations on Luminosity-Period-Mass relationship and luminosity-pe...
متن کاملThe Fading Radio Emission from Sn 1961v: Evidence for a Type Ii Peculiar Supernova?
Using the Very Large Array (VLA), we have detected radio emission from the site of SN 1961V in the Sc galaxy NGC 1058. With a peak flux density of 0.063± 0.008 mJy/beam at 6 cm and 0.147± 0.026 mJy/beam at 18 cm, the source is non-thermal, with a spectral index of −0.79± 0.23. Within errors, this spectral index is the same value reported for previous VLA observations taken in 1984 and 1986. The...
