AbstractAtmospheric modelling of the components of the visually close binary systems Hip70973 and Hip72479 was used to estimate the individual physical parameters of their components. The model atmospheres were constructed using a grid of Kurucz solar metalicity blanketed models and used to compute a synthetic spectral energy distribution for each component separately, and hence for the combined system. The total observational spectral energy distributions of the systems were used as a reference for comparison with the synthetic ones. We used the feedback modified parameters and iteration method to obtain the best fit between synthetic and observational spectral energy distributions. The physical parameters of the components of the system Hip70973 were derived as = 5700 ± 75 K, = 5400 ± 75 K, log ga = 4.50 ± 0.05, log gb = 4.50 ± 0.05, Ra = 0.98 ± 0.07 R⊙, Rb = 0.89 ± 0.07 R⊙, and π = 26.25 ± 1.95 mas, with G4 and G9 spectral types, and those of the system Hip72479 as = 5400 ± 50 K, = 5180 ± 50 K, log ga = 4.50 ± 0.05, log gb = 4.60 ± 0.05, Ra = 0.89 ± 0.07 R⊙, Rb = 0.80 ± 0.07 R⊙, and π = 23.59 ± 1.00 mas, with G9 and K1 spectral types.

Quantitative Estimates

It is necessary to have quantitative estimates of the intensity of lines (both absorption and emission) to obtain the physical parameters of the atmosphere of components.Some years ago at the Crimean observatory we began the spectroscopic investigation of close binary systems of the early spectral type with components WR, Of, O, B to try and obtain more quantitative information from the study of the spectra of the components.

Ultraviolet Observations

Observations of δ Pic, a β Lyr type of eclipsing binary and seven dwarf novae are reported. The ultraviolet light curves of δ Pic indicate the accumulation of matter at the triangular Lagrangian points L4 and L5, the presence of a hot spot and a higher temperature for the primary star. The implication is that the cooler secondary fills its Roche lobe and is transfering mass to the primary; mass loss to the circumstellar space and possibly to the system may also be appreciable. The temperatures of dwarf novae are derived by comparing their ultraviolet spectral energy distributions with those for normal stars of luminosity classes IV and V. Piecing together observations for different objects, the SSCyg systems have temperatures of 28 500 K, 10 000 K and 9500 K, respectively, when they are at minimum, immediately before outburst and at the beginning of rise to maximum. At maximum, the temperature is 22 500 K or 17 300 K depending on the interstellar reddening correction for AR And. Immediately before outburst, there is a large excess of flux in the far ultraviolet as indicated by the large value of the ratio of flux at 1550 Å to that at 1800 Å. The observations of Z Cam during standstill gives a temperature of 14 900 K. No excess of flux in the far ultraviolet was observed during the maximum of AR And and the standstill of Z Cam.

In 1925 a photographic search for new variable stars was begun at the Remeis-Observatory in Bamberg. Initially the sky patrol covered only the northern hemisphere, but in 1964 it was also extended to the southern sky. At the individual observing stations, the sky is systematically photographed with several wide-angle patrol cameras which are attached to the same mounting, and which have f/6 Tessar lenses of 4-inch aperture. Each camera covers a 13-by-13 degree field. The plates are usually exposed for one hour and a photographic magnitude of 14m is reached.

The Individual

In close binary systems of O-type stars, the individual stellar winds will collide between the stars to form shock fronts (Stevens et al. 1992). Binaries with equally luminous stars will have winds of comparable strength, and the shock will occur near the mid-plane between the stars, but in binaries of unequal luminosity, the interaction will occur along a bow shock wrapped around the star with the weaker wind. The presence of the shock region can be detected through excess X-ray emission (Chlebowski & Garmany 1990), and orbital phase-related variations in the UV P Cygni lines (Shore & Brown 1988) and optical emission lines (formed in high density regions of circumstellar gas).We have begun a search for colliding winds through a study of the optical emission lines and UV P Cygni lines in four massive binaries, AO Cas (Gies & Wiggs 1991), Plaskett’s star = HD 47129 (Wiggs & Gies 1992), 29 UW CMa and ι Ori. The optical observations consist of high S/N spectra of the Hα and He I λ6678 region obtained with the University of Texas McDonald Observatory 2.1-m telescope and coudé Reticon system. The UV observations were culled from archival IUE high dispersion spectra of several P Cygni features (N V λ1240, Si IV λ1400, C IV λ1550).

AbstractWe present the spectral energy distributions (SED) of the 323 galaxies of the Herschel Reference Survey. In order to provide templates for nearby galaxies calibrated on physical parameters, we computed mean SEDs per bin of morphological types and stellar masses. They will be very useful to study more distant galaxies and their evolution with redshift. This preliminary work aims to study how the most commonly used libraries (Chary & Elbaz 2001, Dale & Helou 2002 and Draine & Li 2007) reproduce the far-infrared emission of galaxies. First results show that they reproduce well the far-infrared part of mean SEDs. For single galaxies the Draine & Li (2007) models seem to reproduce very well the far-infrared emission, as does the Dale & Helou (2002).

Abstract We report on the variations of the physical parameters of the jet observed in the blazar Mrk 421, and discuss the origin of X-ray flares in the jet, based on analysis of several spectral energy distributions (SEDs). The SEDs are modeled using the one-zone synchrotron self-Compton model, its parameters determined using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method. The lack of data at TeV energies means many of the parameters cannot be uniquely determined and are correlated. These are studied in detail. We find that the optimal solution can be uniquely determined only when we apply a constraint to one of four parameters: the magnetic field (B), the Doppler factor, the size of the emitting region, and the normalization factor of the electron energy distribution. We used 31 sets of SEDs from 2009 to 2014 with optical–UV data observed with UVOT/Swift and the Kanata telescope, X-ray data with XRT/Swift, and γ-ray data with the Fermi Large Area Telescope. The result of our SED analysis suggests that, in the X-ray faint state, the emission occurs in a relatively small area (∼1016 cm) with a relatively strong magnetic field (B ∼ 10−1 G). The X-ray bright state shows a tendency opposite to that of the faint state, that is, a large emitting area (∼1018 cm), probably downstream of the jet, and a weak magnetic field (B ∼ 10−3 G). The high X-ray flux was due to an increase in the maximum energy of electrons. On the other hand, the presence of two kinds of emitting areas implies that the one-zone model is unsuitable for reproducing at least part of the observed SEDs.

Photometric Measurements

Abstract Photometric surveys at optical, ultraviolet, and infrared wavelengths provide ever-growing datasets as major surveys proceed. Colour-colour diagrams are useful tools to identify classes of star and provide large samples. However, combining all photometric measurements of a star into a spectral energy distribution will allow quantitative analyses to be carried out. We demonstrate how to construct and exploit spectral energy distributions and colours for sublumious B (sdB) stars. The aim is to identify cool companions to hot subdwarfs and to determine atmospheric parameters of apparently single sdB stars as well as composite spectrum sdB binaries.We analyse two sdB stars with high-quality photometric data which serve as our benchmarks, the apparently single sdB HD205805 and the sdB + K5 binary PG 0749+658, briefly present preliminary results for the sample of 142 sdB binaries with known orbits, and discuss future prospects from ongoing all-sky optical space- (Gaia) and ground-based (e.g. SkyMapper) as well as NIR surveys.

Aims. The Herschel Extragalactic Legacy Project (HELP) focuses on the data from ESA’s Herschel mission, which covered over 1300 deg2 and is preparing to publish a multi-wavelength catalogue of millions of objects. Our main goal is to find the best approach to simultaneously fitting spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of millions of galaxies across a wide redshift range to obtain homogeneous estimates of the main physical parameters of detected infrared (IR) galaxies. Methods. We perform SED fitting on the ultraviolet(UV)/near-infrared(NIR) to far-infrared(FIR) emission of 42 047 galaxies from the pilot HELP field: ELAIS N1. To do this we use the latest release of CIGALE, a galaxy SED fitting code relying on energy balance, to deliver the main physical parameters such as stellar mass, star formation rate, and dust luminosity. We implement additional quality criteria to the fits by calculating χ2 values for the stellar and dust part of the spectra independently. These criteria allow us to identify the best fits and to identify peculiar galaxies. We perform the SED fitting of ELAIS N1 galaxies by assuming three different dust attenuation laws separately allowing us to test the impact of the assumed law on estimated physical parameters. Results. We implemented two additional quality value checks for the SED fitting method based on stellar mass estimation and energy budget. This method allows us to identify possible objects with incorrect matching in the catalogue and peculiar galaxies; we found 351 possible candidates of lensed galaxies using two complementary χ2s criteria (stellar and infrared χ2s) and photometric redshifts calculated for the IR part of the spectrum only. We find that the attenuation law has an important impact on the stellar mass estimate (on average leading to disparities of a factor of two). We derive the relation between stellar mass estimates obtained by three different attenuation laws and we find the best recipe for our sample. We also make independent estimates of the total dust luminosity parameter from stellar emission by fitting the galaxies with and without IR data separately.
