The propagation of a shock wave in a magnetic flux tube is studied within the framework of the Brinkley-Kirkwood theory adapted to a radiating gas. Simplified...
Shock-induced polarized hydrogen emission lines in the Mira star o Ceti
Context. In the spectra of variable pulsating stars, especially Mira stars, the detection of intense hydrogen emission lines has been explained by the presence...
Shocked POststarburst Galaxy Survey. III. The Ultraviolet Properties of SPOGs
The Shocked POststarburst Galaxy Survey (SPOGS) aims to identify galaxies in the transitional phase between actively star-forming and quiescence with nebular...
Shocks in the Quiet Solar Photosphere: A Rather Common Occurrence
We present observations of the quiet solar photosphere in the Fe I lines at 6302 Å where at least four different spatial locations exhibit upward-directed...
Short time-scale fluctuations in the difference light curves of QSO 0957+561A,B: microlensing or noise?
From optical R-band data of the double quasar QSO 0957+561A,B, we made two new difference light curves (with an overlap of about 330d between the time-shifted...
Short-duration high-amplitude flares detected on the M dwarf star KIC 5474065
Using data obtained during the RATS-Kepler project, we identified one short-duration flare in a 1 h sequence of ground-based photometry of the dwarf star KIC...
Short-lived radioactivity in the early solar system: The Super-AGB star hypothesis
The composition of the most primitive solar system condensates, such as calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) and micron-sized corundum grains, show that...
Short-period Variable Stars in Young Open Cluster Stock 8
We present time-series photometry in the field of Stock 8 and identified 130 short-period variable stars. Twenty-eight main-sequence and 23 pre-main-sequence...
Short-term spectroscopic monitoring of two cool dwarfs with strong magnetic fields
Context: There is now growing evidence that some brown dwarfs (BDs) have very strong magnetic fields, and yet their surface temperatures are so low that the...
