    Hydrogen defects in proton bombarded KCl. (1972)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Optical absorption bands are observed in the UV and IR proton bombarded potassium chloride at liquid nitrogen temperature. It is demonstrated that the absorption is due to trapped protons, and the largest UV band has been identified with the U center.

    An X-ray Investigation of the NGC 346 Field (2002)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-29
    Description: We present results from a Chandra observation of the NGC 346 star formation region, which contains numerous massive stars, and is related to N66, the largest H(II) region of the SMC (Small Magellanic Cloud). In this first paper, we will focus on the characteristics of the main objects of the field. The NGC 346 cluster itself shows only relatively faint X-ray emission (with L((sub X)(sup unabs)) is approximately 1.5 x 10(exp 34) erg s(exp -1), tightly correlated with the core of the cluster. In the field also lies HD 5980, a LBV (Luminous Blue Variable) star in a binary (or triple system) that is detected for the first time at X-ray energies. The star is X-ray bright, with an unabsorbed luminosity of L((sub X)(sup unabs)) is approximately 1.7 x 10(exp 34) erg s(exp -1), but needs to be monitored further to investigate its X-ray variability over a complete orbital cycle. The high X-ray luminosity may be associated either with colliding winds in the binary system or with the 1994 eruption. HD 5980 is surrounded by a region of diffuse X-ray emission, which may be a superimposed supernova remnant.

    A survey of nebulae around Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars in the southern sky, 1 (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Images are presented from the first half of a survey of all Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars in the catalog of van der Hucht et al. (1981) residing in the southern skies. Previous surveys used only existing broad-band photographic plates. Encouraged by successes using CCD imaging with interference filters of the LMC and northern Galaxy (Miller & Chu 1993), we have expanded the survey to the southern hemisphere. In the first half of our southern survey, H alpha and (O III) narrow-band CCD images of fields centered on known Wolf-Rayet stars have indicated the existence of six new ring nebulae as well as revealing previously unobserved morphological features in the known ring nebulae. An example of this is an almost perfect ring of (O III) emission residing interior to the previously observed H alpha filaments of the Wolf-Rayet ring nebulae RCW 104. Our surveys to date indicate that 21% of all Wolf-Rayet stars have ring nebulae, with WN-type Wolf-Rayet stars having a greater likelihood for an associated ring.

    A survey of nebulae around galactic wolf-rayet stars in the southern sky, 2. (1994)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: We present the second half of a charge coupled device (CCD) narrow-band imaging survey of galactic Wolf-Rayet stars located in the southern hemisphere as listed by van der Hucht et al. (1981). Images of 50 Wolf-Rayet stars were taken using a wide-field CCD and narrowband interference filters centered on H alpha and (O III) 5007 A wavelengths. The first half of the survey (Marston, Chu, & Garcia-Segura 1993, hereafter Paper I) revealed six new ring nebulae residing around Wolf-Rayet stars. Here we reveal a possible 11 new rings and the existence of multiple rings associated with two previously known nebula, RCW 118 and G2.4+1.4 and around the stars WR 16 and WR 43. Combining our results with those of Miller & Chu (1993) and Paper I, 92% of the van der Hucht catalog of Wolf-Rayet stars have now been surveyed. Of the 38 possible ring nebulae found in our surveys to date, 22 reside around WN subtype Wolf-Rayet stars, 13 around WC stars, one around a triplet of Wolf-Rayet stars and one around a WO star (WR 102). One ring exists around a WN/WC star (WR 98). A bias toward rings being observed around W-R + OB binaries is noted. Such pairings are generally bright, and the detection of a ring around them may merely be a function of their combined luminosity. Several Wolf-Rayet stars are shown to be surrounded by multiple rings (two or three) which suggests that a number of ejections of stellar material have taken place during their evolution.

    X-Ray Emission from the Wolf-Rayet Bubble S 308 (2012)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: The Wolf-Rayet (WR) bubble S 308 around the WR star HD 50896 is one of the only two WR bubbles known to possess X-ray emission. We present XMM-Newton observations of three fields of this WR bubble that, in conjunction with an existing observation of its Northwest quadrant (Chu et al. 2003), map most of the nebula. The X-ray emission from S 308 displays a limb-brightened morphology, with a 22' in size central cavity and a shell thickness of approx. 8'. This X-ray shell is confined by the optical shell of ionized material. The spectrum is dominated by the He-like triplets of N VI at approx.0.43 keV and O VII at approx.0.5 keV, and declines towards high energies, with a faint tail up to 1 keV. This spectrum can be described by a two-temperature optically thin plasma emission model (T1 approx.1.1 x 10(exp 6) K, T2 approx.13 x 10(exp 6) K), with a total X-ray luminosity approx.3 x 10(exp 33) erg/s at the assumed distance of 1.8 kpc. Qualitative comparison of the X-ray morphology of S 308 with the results of numerical simulations of wind-blown WR bubbles suggests a progenitor mass of 40 Stellar mass and an age in the WR phase approx.20,000 yrs. The X-ray luminosity predicted by simulatioms including the effects of heat conduction is in agreement with the observations, however, the simulated X-ray spectrum indicates generally hotter gas than is derived from the observations. We suggest that non-equilibrium ionization (NEI) may provide an explanation for this discrepancy.

    Properties of R136a as derived from its optical light distribution (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Short exposure 4 m prime focus plates taken with interference filters centered on blue continuum 4765 A, He II 4686 line, red continuum 6485 A, and H-alpha line have been used to study the light distribution within R136a. R136a contains a bright component and several fainter components superposed on an extended background. The brightest component, unresolved under sub-arcsec seeing condition, contributes about 37 percent of the total light from a 3 in. diameter aperture. Combining the optical and UV information, it is found that this brightest component R136a1 may be a single star with a mass of approximately 750 solar masses with a brightness of six HD 93129A or 20 O3 V stars, or it could be a cluster of such stars. In either case, R136a1 supplies no more than one-half of the ionization of the 30 Doradus nebula.

    X-ray emission from supergiant shells in the LMC (1996)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-16
    Description: The mosaics of pointed Rosat Position Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) observations of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) were used to study the X-ray characteristics of supergiant shells. Diffuse soft X-ray emission above the background was detected in all of the well-defined supergiant shells. The large range of X-ray properties can be explained by differential obscuration, temperature density differences, and localized heating by supernova remnants.
