The Evolution and Simulation of the Outburst from XZ Tauri - A Possible EXor?
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on multi-epoch HST/WFPC2 images of the XZ Tauri binary, and its outflow, covering the period from 1995 to 2001. Data from 1995 to 1998 have already been published in the literature. Additional images, from 1999, 2000 and 2001 are presented here. These reveal not only further dynamical and morphological evolution of the XZ Tauri outflow but also that the suspected outflow source, XZ Tauri North has flared in EXor-type fashion. In particular our proper motion studies suggests that the recently discovered bubble-like shock, driven by the the XZ Tauri outflow, is slowing down (its tangential velocity decreasing from 146 km s to 117 km s). We also present simulations of the outflow itself, with plausible ambient and outflow parameters, that appear to reproduce not only the dynamical evolution of the flow, but also its shape and emission

X - ray and optical bursts and flares in YSOs : results from a 5 - day XMM - Newton monitoring campaign of L 1551
We present the results of a five-day monitoring campaign with XMM-Newton of six X-ray bright young stellar objects (YSOs) in the star-forming complex L1551 in Taurus. All stars present significant variability on the five-day time scale. Modulation of the light curve on time scales comparable with the star's rotational period appeared to be present in the case of one weak-lined T Tauri star. Sig...

متن کاملThe outburst of the T Tauri star EX Lupi in 1994
We have observed an outburst of the T Tauri star EX Lup in March 1994. We present both photometric (BVR) and spectroscopic (low and medium resolution) observations carried out during the decline after outburst. The star appears much bluer during outburst due to an increased emission of a hot continuum. This is accompanied by a strong increase of the veiling of photospheric lines. We observe inv...
متن کاملEntanglement in the XZ spin chain model in the external magnetic field
The entanglement at zero-temperature is studied in a two-qubit XZ spin-1/2 chain model in anexternal magnetic field which is applied in the z direction. We have obtained an analytical relation forthe effect of the external magnetic field on the concurrence. It is shown that the ground state of thesystem depends on the strength of exchange coupling. We have shown that the analytical relation oft...
متن کامل4 The Outburst of V 1647 Ori Revealed by Spitzer
We present Spitzer Space Telescope observations of V1647 Ori, the outburst-ing source lighting McNeil's nebula, taken near the optical peak of the outburst in early March 2004. The source is easily detected in all Spitzer imaging bands from 3.6-70 µm. The fluxes at all wavelengths are roughly a factor of 15 brighter than pre-outburst levels; we measure a bolometric luminosity of 44 L ⊙. We posi...
