AbstractFrom the combination of VLBI phase-referenced observations and Hipparcos satellite data, we have found evidence of a low-mass object orbiting the late-type star AB Doradus. The mass of the new object is near the hydrogen burning limit and will constitute a precise point for calibrating the low end of the main sequence. This represents the first detection of a low-mass stellar companion using the VLBI technique, which could become an important tool in future searches for planets and brown dwarfs orbiting other stars.

We report the discovery of MASCARA-3b, a hot Jupiter orbiting its bright (V = 8.33) late F-type host every 5.55149 ± 0.00001 days in an almost circular orbit (e = 0.050−0.017+0.020). This is the fourth exoplanet discovered with the Multi-site All-Sky CAmeRA (MASCARA), and the first of these that orbits a late-type star. Follow-up spectroscopic measurements were obtained in and out of transit with the Hertzsprung SONG telescope. Combining the MASCARA photometry and SONG radial velocities reveals a radius and mass of 1.36 ± 0.05 RJup and 4.2 ± 0.2 MJup. In addition, SONG spectroscopic transit observations were obtained on two separate nights. From analyzing the mean out-of-transit broadening function, we obtain v sin i⋆ = 20.4 ± 0.4 km s−1. In addition, investigating the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, as observed in the distortion of the stellar lines directly and through velocity anomalies, we find the projected obliquity to be λ = 1.2−7.4+8.2 deg, which is consistent with alignment.

AbstractWe present infrared (IR) photometry and optical spectroscopy of the eclipsing old nova WY Sge. According to hibernation theorists the disc in a system a few centuries after outburst should be significantly fainter than in other, more recent, old novae but similar to the discs of dwarf novae in quiescence. Despite the apparent faintness of the late type star we have sufficient information to infer that the face closest to the white dwarf (WD) is irradiated.

Late Type Star

The cataclysmic variables are close binary systems consisting of a late type star and a collapsed star, usually a white dwarf, undergoing mass exchange. According to the standard model, the late type star (the secondary) fills its Roche lobe and material escaping from the inner Lagrangian point is transferred to the primary by means of a mass transfer stream and an accretion disc. The spectroscopic and photometric properties of most cataclysmic variables can be understood in terms of radiation from the various components of such a system, with the accretion disc usually dominating in the optical region (see Warner (1976) for a review). However, recently a new class of cataclysmic variables has been discovered with distinctive optical properties that are inexplicable in terms of the standard model. These systems known as the AM Herculis type variables have provided the first direct evidence for the presence of strong magnetic fields in the white dwarfs of some cataclysmic variables. We present here a review of some of the important properties of these variables with emphasis on the unique system VV Puppis which has provided the first unequivocal evidence for high harmonic cyclotron radiation from white dwarfs.

AbstractWe present the first 86 GHz spectral line VLBI map. Strong SiO masers in the late type star VX Sgr are mapped with a relative astrometry of 0.15 mas revealing an irregular ring of maser emission that echos structure seen at 43 GHz. A surprising feature of this map is the detection of a large (0.5 km s−1 AU−1 ) linear velocity gradient that can be interpreted as rigid rotation of the circumstellar envelope.

Infared polarimetric and photometric mapping observations at K(2.2 μm) and H(1.65 μm) have revealed an extended dust envelope around the late-type star IRC+10216. The observations were made on the 3.8-m United Kingdom Infrared Telescope on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, in 1985 December and 1987 January and February. The polarization observations were made by emplying the Kyoto polarimeter (Sato et al. 1987). Great care was taken to check the contamination by stray light in the telescope and instruments as the source on peak was extremely bright (K~0 mag). From the observations of normal stars, we found that the polarized intensity (degree of polarization times the intensity) was a good measure of the envelope, free from contamination by stray light, although the intensity and the degree of polarization suffered from the contamination separately.
