Journal ArticleDOI
Cyclic variability of the circumstellar disk of the Be star $\zeta$ Tauri - II. Testing the 2D global disk oscillation model
Alex C. Carciofi,Atsuo T. Okazaki,J.-B. Le Bouquin,S. Štefl,Th. Rivinius,D. Baade,Jon E. Bjorkman,C. A. Hummel +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a self-consistent model of polarimetric, photometric, spectrophotometric, and interferometric observations of the Be star ζ Tauri.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The BRITE Constellation as discussed by the authors, the first nanosatellite mission applied to astrophysical research, is a collaboration among Austria, Canada and Poland, which performs precise optical photometry of the brightest stars in the night sky.

Marciniszyn,Patrick Romano,G. Wozniak,T. Zawistowski,Robert E. Zee +29 more
TL;DR: This paper discusses the technical issues, including problems encountered during on-orbit commissioning (especially higher-than-expected sensitivity of the CCDs to particle radiation), and describes in detail how the BRITE team has mitigated these problems, and provides a complete overview of mission operations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term variability and mass loss in Be stars I. BRITE satellite photometry of η and μ Centauri
D. Baade,Th. Rivinius,Andrzej Pigulski,Alex C. Carciofi,Ch. Martayan,A. F. J. Moffat,Gregg A. Wade,Werner W. Weiss,Jason Grunhut,Gerald Handler,Rainer Kuschnig,Rainer Kuschnig,Andrea Mehner,Herbert Pablo,Adam Popowicz,Slavek M. Rucinski,G. Whittaker +16 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a more detailed empirical description of the star-to-disk mass transfer and checked the hypothesis that spates of transient nonradial pulsation modes accompany and even drive mass-loss episodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term variability and mass loss in Be stars I. BRITE satellite photometry of $\eta$ and $\mu$ Centauri
D. Baade,Th. Rivinius,Andrzej Pigulski,Alex C. Carciofi,Ch. Martayan,A. F. J. Moffat,Gregg A. Wade,Werner W. Weiss,Jason Grunhut,Gerald Handler,Rainer Kuschnig,Andrea Mehner,Herbert Pablo,Adam Popowicz,Slavek M. Rucinski,G. Whittaker +15 more
TL;DR: The mass transfer is modulated with the frequency difference of two NRP modes and an amplitude three times as large as the amplitude sum of the two nonradial modes as discussed by the authors.
