چکیده
We present new optical, near-IR, and mid-IR observations of the young eruptive variable star V1647 Orionis that went into outburst in late 2004 for approximately two years. Our observations were taken one year after the star had faded to its pre-outburst optical brightness and show that V1647 Ori is still actively accreting circumstellar material. We compare and contrast these data with existing observations of the source from both pre-outburst and outburst phases. From nearIR spectroscopy we identify photospheric absorption features for the first time that allow us to constrain the classification of the young star itself. Our best fit spectral type is M0±2 sub-classes with a visual extinction of 19±2 magnitudes and a K-band veiling of rK ∼1.5±0.2. We estimate that V1647 Ori has a quiescent bolometric luminosity of ∼9.5 L⊙ and a mass accretion rate of ∼1×10 M⊙ yr . Our derived mass and age, from comparison with evolutionary models, are 0.8±0.2 M⊙ and . 0.5 Myrs, respectively. The presence towards the star of shock excited optical [S II] and [Fe II] emission as well as near-IR H2 and [Fe II] emission perhaps suggests that a new Herbig-Haro flow is becoming visible close to the star.

For about 100 years the amplitude of the 4 d pulsation in Polaris has decreased. We present new results showing a significant increase in the amplitude based on 4.5 years of continuous monitoring from the ground and with two satellite missions.

The origin of galactic cosmic rays is one of the most interesting unsolved problems in astroparticle physics. Experimentally, the problem is attacked by a multi-disciplinary effort, namely by direct measurements of cosmic rays above the atmosphere, by air shower observations, and by the detection of TeV γ rays. Recent experimental results are presented and their implications on the contemporary...

Some new regularities found in the pseudoscalar meson octet are reported. They invite to reconsider models where elementary fermions and composite QCD open strings can be grouped in common supermultiplets.
