HD 213258: A new rapidly oscillating, super slowly rotating, strongly magnetic Ap star in a spectroscopic binary

Pierre North

We report on HD 213258, an Ap star that we recently identified as presenting a unique combination of rare, remarkable properties. Our study of this star is based on ESPaDOnS Stokes I and V data obtained at seven epochs spanning a time interval slightly sho ...

Global 'zero particle flux-driven' gyrokinetic analysis of the density profile for a TCV plasma

Olivier Sauter, Stephan Brunner, Gabriele Merlo, Alberto Mariani

The tokamak `a configuration variable (TCV) is a small-sized tokamak, where finite size effects (often called 'rho-star' or 'global' effects) could significantly impact the heat and particle fluxes, leading to discrepancies between gyrokinetic flux-tube re ...

Crowded No More: The Accuracy of the Hubble Constant Tested with High-resolution Observations of Cepheids by JWST

Richard Irving Anderson

High-resolution James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observations can test confusion-limited Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations for a photometric bias that could affect extragalactic Cepheids and the determination of the Hubble constant. We present JWS ...

The eta Aquilae System: Radial Velocities and Astrometry in Search of eta Aql B

Richard Irving Anderson

The classical Cepheid eta Aql was not included in past Leavitt Law work because of a presumed complicating orbit due to a known B9.8V companion. To determine the orbit of eta Aql B, we analyze a significant number of radial velocity (RV) measurements from ...

The Pristine survey - XVII. The C-19 stream is dynamically hot and more extended than previously thought

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

The C-19 stream is the most metal-poor stellar system ever discovered, with a mean metallicity [Fe/H] = -3.38 +/- 0.06. Its low metallicity dispersion (sigma([Fe/H]) < 0.18 at the 95 per cent confidence level) and variations in sodium abundances strongly s ...

Effects of the parallel flow shear on the ITG-driven turbulent transport in tokamak plasmas

Yann Camenen, Javier García Hernández, Samuele Mazzi

The impact of the parallel flow shear on the tokamak plasma stability and turbulent transport driven by the ion temperature gradient (ITG) modes is analyzed by means of local gyrokinetic numerical analyses. It is shown that the parallel flow shear increase ...

The Cen A galaxy group: Dynamical mass and missing baryons

Oliver Müller

The nearby elliptical galaxy Centaurus A (Cen A) is surrounded by a flattened system of dwarf satellite galaxies with coherent motions. Using a novel Bayesian approach, we measured the mean rotation velocity nu(rot) and velocity dispersion sigma(int) of th ...

The Pristine survey - XIV. Chemical analysis of two ultra-metal-poor stars

Pascale Jablonka, Carmela Lardo

Elemental abundances of the most metal-poor stars reflect the conditions in the early Galaxy and the properties of the first stars. We present a spectroscopic follow-up of two ultra-metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -4.0) identified by the survey Pristine: Pristi ...

The Pristine survey - X. A large population of low-metallicity stars permeates the Galactic disc

Pascale Jablonka, Pierre North, Nicolas Lawrence Etienne Longeard, Romain Ely Roland Lucchesi

The orbits of the least chemically enriched stars open a window on the formation of our Galaxy when it was still in its infancy. The common picture is that these low-metallicity stars are distributed as an isotropic, pressure-supported component since thes ...
