H Ii Region

We consider the Orion Nebula (M 42) within a project aimed at studying the interaction between massive stars and their surrounding ISM. This is an H ii region ionized by θ1 Ori C, one of the four massive stars in the Trapezium Cluster. θ1 Ori C has the earliest spectral type (O7Vp) among them, emitting an ionizing flux several orders of magnitude larger than those of the other stars. We present a spectral analysis of the Trapezium Cluster stars to determine their stellar parameters. We use spectra between 4250 – 4750 Å and compare them with synthetic spectra obtained by means of an updated version of fastwind that includes an approximated treatment of metal-line blanketing.

The One

We review critical physics affecting the observational characteristics of those supernovae that occur in massive stars. Particular emphasis is given to 1) how mass loss, either to a binary companion or by a radiatively driven wind, affects the type and light curve of the supernova, and 2) the interaction of the outgoing supernova shock with regions of increasing pr3 in the stellar mantle. One conclusion is that Type II-L supernovae may occur in mass exchanging binaries very similar to the one that produced SN 1993J, but with slightly larger initial separations and residual hydrogen envelopes (∼1 Mʘ and radius ∼ several AU). The shock interaction, on the other hand, has important implications for the formation of black holes in explosions that are, near peak light, observationally indistinguishable from ordinary Type II-p and lb supernovae.

The One

A few methods for discerning broken rotor bar (BRB) fault and load oscillation in induction motors have been reported in the literature. However, they all perhaps inevitably fail in adverse cases in which these two phenomena are simultaneously present. To tackle this problem, an improved method for discerning BRB fault and load oscillation is proposed in this paper based on the following work. On the one hand, the theoretical basis is analytically extended to include such an adverse case, yielding some important findings on the spectra of the instantaneous reactive and active powers. A novel strategy is thus outlined to correctly discern BRB fault and load oscillation even when simultaneously present. On the other hand, Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Technique (ESPRIT) is adopted as the spectral analysis technique to deal with the instantaneous reactive and active powers, yielding a certain improvement compared to the existing methods, adopting Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Simulation and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can correctly discern BRB fault and load oscillation even when simultaneously present.

Magnitude Diagram

A scenario for the formation of multiple co-eval populations separated in age by about 1 Myr in very young clusters (VYCs, ages less than 10 Myr) and with masses in the range 600–20 000 M⊙ is outlined. It rests upon a converging inflow of molecular gas building up a first population of pre-main sequence stars. The associated just-formed O stars ionise the inflow and suppress star formation in the embedded cluster. However, they typically eject each other out of the embedded cluster within 106 yr, that is before the molecular cloud filament can be ionised entirely. The inflow of molecular gas can then resume forming a second population. This sequence of events can be repeated maximally over the life-time of the molecular cloud (about 10 Myr), but is not likely to be possible in VYCs with mass <300 M⊙, because such populations are not likely to contain an O star. Stellar populations heavier than about 2000 M⊙ are likely to have too many O stars for all of these to eject each other from the embedded cluster before they disperse their natal cloud. VYCs with masses in the range 600–2000 M⊙ are likely to have such multi-age populations, while VYCs with masses in the range 2000–20 000 M⊙ can also be composed solely of co-eval, mono-age populations. More massive VYCs are not likely to host sub-populations with age differences of about 1 Myr. This model is applied to the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC), in which three well-separated pre-main sequences in the colour–magnitude diagram of the cluster have recently been discovered. The mass-inflow history is constrained using this model and the number of OB stars ejected from each population are estimated for verification using Gaia data. As a further consequence of the proposed model, the three runaway O star systems, AE Aur, μ Col and ι Ori, are considered as significant observational evidence for stellar-dynamical ejections of massive stars from the oldest population in the ONC. Evidence for stellar-dynamical ejections of massive stars in the currently forming population is also discussed.

The tidal analysis of data from the Equatorial region, given by inverted echo-sounders, show considerable residuals in the frequency band of approximately 2 cycles per day. In the even harmonics of 4 and 6 cycles per day, tidal components statistically not negligible are also identified. Spectral analysis of temperature series from the same area show, on the other hand, variabilities in the same frequency bands, which suggests the occurrence of internal waves with energy distributed in these frequency bands, in the Atlantic Equatorial area.

The eclipsing binaries UW CMa, AO Cas, and V729 Cyg have been systems of great interest for over fifty years. The light curves are complex and suffer significant changes on a time scale of months, but the primary attraction of these systems is that both components have O-type spectra; thus they present us with some of the few possibilities for direct measurement of absolute dimensions of very massive stars. Much effort has been expended on these systems, but no really consistent model has emerged.

Context. Deep GALEX UV data show that the extreme outskirts of some spiral galaxies are teeming with star formation. Such young stellar populations evolving so far away from the bulk of their host galaxies challenge our overall understanding of how star formation proceeds at galactic scales. It is at present unclear whether our own Milky Way may also exhibit ongoing and recent star formation beyond the conventional edge of the disk (∼15 kpc). Aims. Using Gaia DR2 data, we aim to determine if such a population is present in the Galactic halo, beyond the nominal radius of the Milky Way disk. Methods. We studied the kinematics of Gaia DR2 sources with parallax values between 1/60 and 1/30 milliarcseconds towards two regions that show abnormally high values of extinction and reddening; the results are compared with predictions from GALAXIA Galactic model. We also plotted the color–magnitude (CM) diagrams with heliocentric distances computed inverting the parallaxes, and studied the effects of the large parallax errors by Monte Carlo sampling. Results. The kinematics point towards a Galactic origin for one of the regions, while the provenance of the stars in the other is not clear. A spectroscopic analysis of some of the sources in the first region confirms that they are located in the halo. The CM diagram of the sources suggests that some of them are young.

ABSTRACT We characterize the radii and masses of the star and planets in the Kepler-59 system, as well as their orbital parameters. The star parameters are determined through a standard spectroscopic analysis, resulting in a mass of $1.359\pm 0.155\, \mathrm{M}_\odot$ and a radius of $1.367\pm 0.078\, \mathrm{R}_\odot$. The obtained planetary radii are $1.5\pm 0.1\, R_\oplus$ for the inner and $2.2\pm 0.1\, R_\oplus$ for the outer planet. The orbital parameters and the planetary masses are determined by the inversion of Transit Timing Variations (TTV) signals. We consider two different data sets: one provided by Holczer et al. (2016), with TTVs only for Kepler-59c, and the other provided by Rowe et al. (2015), with TTVs for both planets. The inversion method applies an algorithm of Bayesian inference (MultiNest) combined with an efficient N-body integrator (Swift). For each of the data set, we found two possible solutions, both having the same probability according to their corresponding Bayesian evidences. All four solutions appear to be indistinguishable within their 2-σ uncertainties. However, statistical analyses show that the solutions from Rowe et al. (2015) data set provide a better characterization. The first solution infers masses of $5.3_{-2.1}^{+4.0}~M_{\mathrm{\oplus }}$ and $4.6_{-2.0}^{+3.6}~M_{\mathrm{\oplus }}$ for the inner and outer planet, respectively, while the second solution gives masses of $3.0^{+0.8}_{-0.8}~M_{\mathrm{\oplus }}$ and $2.6^{+0.9}_{-0.8}~M_{\mathrm{\oplus }}$. These values point to a system with an inner super-Earth and an outer mini-Neptune. A dynamical study shows that the planets have almost co-planar orbits with small eccentricities (e &lt; 0.1), close to the 3:2 mean motion resonance. A stability analysis indicates that this configuration is stable over million years of evolution.

ABSTRACT We analysed a Fabry–Pérot (FP) cube of the interacting pair of galaxies Arp 70, which was obtained from the CeSAM public repository of FP data. On the larger galaxy Arp 70b, we detected the spectral signature of two different outflows, one located in the centre and the other associated with a giant H ii region in the arm region. The central outflow is especially prominent, with the flux of the secondary peaks in the emission-line profiles due to the outflowing gas being similar to that of the main peak. We used an archive fibre spectrum from SDSS to confirm this detection in H α as well as in the [N ii] line and, in addition, to perform diagnostics on the nature of the ionization. The emission at the centre is consistent with a low-ionization nuclear emission-line region and a weak active galactic nucleus. Using the spatial distribution of the profiles in the FP cube, we estimated the shape of the outflow which is consistent with two cones of expanding material, one approaching and the other receding from us, and used this to estimate the physical parameters of the outflow, finding energies of order 1057 erg and masses of order 108 M⊙. On the giant H ii region, we found a very large expanding superbubble with a diameter of ∼5 kpc. The bubble has an energy of order 1054 erg and a mass of about 4 × 107 M⊙. We discuss the possible origins for both of these features and whether they could be associated with the interaction between the galaxies.
