During a giant eruption of a very massive star in the binary system, the companion star can accrete a large amount of mass that can change its properties and potentially its subsequent evolution. The effect depends on the companion mass, metallicity, the amount of mass it accreted, orbital parameters and other parameters. We simulate individual companion stars assuming they undergo such accretion events. We study the envelope properties of 20 and 30 single massive stars at different metallicities (, and ) during accretion at different rates, from to . For the lower accretion rates we simulate, the stars remains hot, while at higher accretion rates, it becomes cooler and inflates. This behavior is observed in both stars but occurs at different accretion rates. Higher metallicity stars exhibit greater variations in accretion luminosity for the same accretion rate and stellar mass compared to lower metallicity stars. While higher metallicity stars typically have larger stellar envelopes, suggesting smaller variations in luminosity at Galactic metallicity compared to the LMC and SMC, our results show the opposite.

Utilizing high-cadence and long-term optical photometry from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), we conducted a time-resolved timing analysis of the Intermediate Polar, V709 Cas. Our analysis reveals key characteristics of this system: an orbital period of 5.3329 ± 0.0002 h, a spin period of 312.7478 ± 0.0002 s, and a beat period of 317.9267 ± 0.0002 s. These periods represent a significant refinement over the results of previous studies. These analyses demonstrate that V709 Cas is primarily a disc-overflow accretor, with accretion predominantly occurring via a disc. However, the analysis also reveals epochs where stream-fed accretion is a dominant accretion process. Time-resolved analysis of 20 s short cadence data obtained from sectors 57 and 58 reveals the presence of distinct first harmonics of the spin and beat frequencies. This finding indicates the presence of double peak spin modulation, a characteristic signature of two-pole accretion onto the white dwarf.

A direct numerical simulation (DNS) of two-dimensional axisymmetric relativistic jet propagation through a uniform interstellar medium was carried out by solving the relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (RMHD) equations with the PLUTO solver (Mignone et al., 2007). Moreover, a comprehensive discussion of the detailed flow features involved in this propagation is provided throughout this study. The physics underlying shock-vorticity interaction during relativistic jet propagation through a uniform interstellar medium has been thoroughly described in this present study. Additionally, the probability density distribution (p.d.f) of enstrophy () indicates that the highest intensity of fluid rotation, and consequently turbulence, is manifested within the cocoon instead of the frontal region of the relativistic jet.

This study investigates the dynamics of a test particle under the influence of two primaries in the framework of the Yukawa-type radiating restricted three-body problem (YR3BP). The model incorporates two significant perturbations to the classical circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP): radiation pressure from the larger primary and a Yukawa-type correction to the Newtonian gravitational potential. We first identify the existence and linear stability of out-of-plane equilibrium points, which arise when the radiation pressure exceeds the gravitational pull of the radiating primary. These equilibrium points are found to be independent of the Yukawa parameters, suggesting that the Yukawa-type force does not influence their locations. We also calculate families of three-dimensional periodic (halo-type) and quasi-periodic orbits around these stable equilibrium points using numerical simulations. Our results underline how radiation and modified gravity shape the behaviour of small bodies in disturbed celestial environments, as well as the rich orbital structures that the YR3BP model supports.

This study examines a stationary model of the magneto-electronegative dusty plasma sheath, treating dust particles as a cold fluid. In the present model, the electron and negative ion are in Maxwellian thermodynamic equilibrium, while positive ions are considered as a hot fluid with an ion source term. The effects of ion sources and ionization frequencies (IFs) on the sheath are examined to compare their contributions. A modified sheath criterion and floating potential are established theoretically using the Sagdeev potential method. The governing equations of the model are then solved numerically. The effects of the ion source on sheath electric potential, particle density, positive ion velocity, and space charge density are also investigated. It was found that the modified Bohm criterion decreases with an increase of the IF. It can be seen that the different ion source term is effective in the dusty plasma sheath structure.

Common envelopes are thought to be the main method for producing tight binaries in the universe as the orbital period shrinks by several orders of magnitude during this phase. Despite their importance for various evolutionary channels, direct detections are rare, and thus observational constraints on common envelope physics are often inferred from post-CE populations. Population constraints suggest that the CE phase must be highly inefficient at using orbital energy to drive envelope ejection for low-mass systems and highly efficient for high-mass systems. Such a dichotomy has been explained by an interplay between convection, radiation and orbital decay. If convective transport to the surface occurs faster than the orbit decays, the CE self-regulates and radiatively cools. Once the orbit shrinks such that convective transport is slow compared to orbital decay, a burst occurs as the release of orbital energy can be far in excess of that required to unbind the envelope. With the anticipation of first light for the Rubin Observatory, we calculate light curve models for convective common envelopes and provide the time evolution of apparent magnitudes for the Rubin filters. Convection imparts a distinct signature in the light curves and lengthens the timescales during which they are observable. Given Rubin limiting magnitudes, convective CEs should be detectable out to distances of 8 Mpc at a rate of 0.1 day−1 and provide an intriguing observational test of common envelope physics.

Accurate photometry in astronomical surveys is challenged by image artefacts, which affect measurements and degrade data quality. Due to the large amount of available data, this task is increasingly handled using machine learning algorithms, which often require a labelled training set to learn data patterns. We present an expert-labelled dataset of 1127 artefacts with 1213 labels from 26 fields in ZTF DR3, along with a complementary set of nominal objects. The artefact dataset was compiled using the active anomaly detection algorithm PineForest, developed by the SNAD team. These datasets can serve as valuable resources for real-bogus classification, catalogue cleaning, anomaly detection, and educational purposes. Both artefacts and nominal images are provided in FITS format in two sizes (28 × 28 and 63 × 63 pixels). The datasets are publicly available for further scientific applications.

The masses and radii of strongly magnetized anisotropic deformed white dwarf stars are investigated using the stellar structure equations in the parameterized -metric formalism. The Equation of State (EoS) of a completely degenerate relativistic electron gas in strong quantizing density-dependent magnetic field is developed. The fluid and field pressure anisotropy among the parallel and perpendicular components to the magnetic field is taken into consideration. This anisotropy in the EoS causes axisymmetric deformation of the star. We found stable solutions of deformed super-Chandrasekhar ultramassive white dwarfs. At a fixed central electron number density, the mass first increases from the traditional Chandrasekhar limit with increase of central magnetic field strength, reaches a maximum and then decreases with further increase of central magnetic field. For lower central magnetic field strengths, both the pressure anisotropy and the resulting deformation are very less, and hence the mass increases. In the higher central magnetic field regime, the magnetic field pressure anisotropy becomes significantly strong. This leads to greater deformation from spherical symmetry and hence reduces the stellar mass. We also see that the maximum mass and its corresponding equatorial radius both decrease as central magnetic field strength increases. We also notice that the maximum mass occurs at higher central density as the magnetic field increases. These phenomena also occur because of the deviation from spherical symmetry due to higher pressure anisotropy. High magnetic field increases stellar compactness.

This study presents the light curve (LC) analysis of the GM Dra eclipsing binary (using data from TESS, SuperWASP, KWS(), Hipparcos, and ASAS-SN), along with a detailed investigation of its orbital period (OP) for the first time. Photometric data obtained from five different databases were used to simultaneously analyze the system’s LC and radial velocity (RV). The LC modeling results for GM Dra reveal the object stars’ masses and radii as follows: M, M, R, and R. A total of 108 eclipse times (ETs) were calculated on the basis of TESS and SuperWASP observations. These ETs are of great significance in determining the OP change. The OP of the GM Dra has been analyzed based on long-term observations, revealing that the OP of GM Dra is decreasing by 0.051 s per year. A sinusoidal variation in the period change was also identified, which may be attributed to the presence of a potential third object or magnetic activity. These findings provide significant insights into the evolutionary status (the positions of the system in the Hertzsprung–Russell (HR) diagram and logM–logJ diagram were discussed) of GM Dra and the dynamics of the binary system.

A total of 108 eclipse times (ETs) were calculated on the basis of TESS and SuperWASP observations. These ETs are of great significance in determining the OP change. The OP of the GM Dra has been analyzed based on long-term observations, revealing that the OP of GM Dra is decreasing by 0.051 s per year. A sinusoidal variation in the period change was also identified, which may be attributed to the presence of a potential third object or magnetic activity.
