Nucleosynthetic yields from neutron stars accreting in binary common envelopes (2019)
Journal Article
Keegans, J., Fryer, C. L., Jones, S. W., Côté, B., Belczynski, K., Herwig, F., …Diget, C. A. (2019). Nucleosynthetic yields from neutron stars accreting in binary common envelopes. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 485(1), 620-639. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz368

Massive-star binaries can undergo a phase where one of the two stars expands during its advanced evolutionary stage as a giant and envelops its companion, ejecting the hydrogen envelope and tightening its orbit. Such a common envelope phase is requir... Read More about Nucleosynthetic yields from neutron stars accreting in binary common envelopes.

Dependence of convective boundary mixing on boundary properties and turbulence strength (2019)
Journal Article
Cristini, A., Hirschi, R., Meakin, C., Arnett, D., Georgy, C., & Walkington, I. (2019). Dependence of convective boundary mixing on boundary properties and turbulence strength. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 484(4), 4645 - 4664. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz312

Convective boundary mixing is one of the major uncertainties in stellar evolution. In order to study its dependence on boundary properties and turbulence strength in a controlled way, we computed a series of 3D hydrodynamical simulations of stellar c...

SB 796: a high-velocity RRc star (2019)
Journal Article
Maxted. (2019). SB 796: a high-velocity RRc star. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 5327-5335. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty2828

We report here on a detailed study of a c-type RR Lyrae variable (RRc variable), SB 796, serendipitously discovered in a search of the WASP public data for stars that display large photometric periodic modulation. SB 796 displays a period of P = 0.26... Read More about SB 796: a high-velocity RRc star.

The VMC Survey XXXIII. The tip of the red giant branch in the Magellanic Clouds (2019)
Journal Article
Van Loon. (2019). The VMC Survey XXXIII. The tip of the red giant branch in the Magellanic Clouds. Astronomy & Astrophysics, https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201833904

In this paper JKs-band data from the VISTA Magellanic Cloud (VMC) survey are used to investigate the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) as a distance indicator. A linear fit to recent theoretical models is used as the basis for the absolute calibrati... Read More about The VMC Survey XXXIII. The tip of the red giant branch in the Magellanic Clouds.

OGLE-2014-BLG-1186: gravitational microlensing providing evidence for a planet orbiting the foreground star or for a close binary source? (2019)
Journal Article
Dominik, M., Bachelet, E., Bozza, V., Street, R. A., Han, C., Hundertmark, M., …Kozłowski, S. (2019). OGLE-2014-BLG-1186: gravitational microlensing providing evidence for a planet orbiting the foreground star or for a close binary source?. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 484(4), 5608 - 5632. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz306

Discussing the particularly long gravitational microlensing event OGLE-2014-BLG-1186 with a time-scale tE ~ 300 d, we present a methodology for identifying the nature of localised deviations from single-lens point-source light curves, which ensures t...

The PDS 110 observing campaign – photometric and spectroscopic observations reveal eclipses are aperiodic (2019)
Journal Article
Osborn, H. P., Kenworthy, M., Rodriguez, J. E., de Mooij, E. J. W., Kennedy, G. M., Relles, H., …Zhou, G. (2019). The PDS 110 observing campaign – photometric and spectroscopic observations reveal eclipses are aperiodic. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 485(2), 1614-1625. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stz283

PDS 110 is a young disc-hosting star in the Orion OB1A association. Two dimming events of similar depth and duration were seen in 2008 (WASP) and 2011 (KELT), consistent with an object in a closed periodic orbit. In this paper, we present data from a...
