Topic: V509 Cassiopeiae


  
  Cassiopeia (constellation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cassiopeia is a northern constellation which Greek mythology considered to represent a vain queen.
Cassiopeia was the site of Tycho Brahe's supernova of 1572 (SN 1572), and is also the location of Cassiopeia A, the strongest radio source in the sky (other than the sun).
Cassiopeia A is the remnant of a supernova which apparently occurred in about 1667, although there is no record of it having been observed.

Hence, when β Cassiopeiae is on the meridian directly above the pole the sidereal time is zero, when on the meridian directly below the pole the sidereal time is 12 hours, etc.
γ Cassiopeiae is assumed to be a binary star containing a Be star and a neutron star.
Cassiopeia contains two stars visible to the naked eye that rank among the brightest in the galaxy: ρ Cassiopeiae and V509 Cassiopeiae.

It is frequently used as a rough indicator of sidereal time; the leading bright star of the W, β Cassiopeiae;, called Caph, lies almost at zero hours right ascension and hence a line drawn through Polaris and β Cassiopeiae must pass close to the vernal equinox.
Cassiopeia was the site of Tycho Brahe's supernova of 1572, and is also the location of Cassiopeia A, the strongest radio source in the sky (other than the sun).
If we were to observe Earth's Sun from Alpha Centauri, it would appear to be in Cassiopeia.

From the supplier: The gamma star in the constellation Cassiopeia has been identified as a strong source of x-rays.
Some evidence suggested this star was a binary, but other data suggest gamma Cas has co-rotating clouds of matter magnetically anchored to its surface, although now significantly cooler clouds can exist close to a much hotter star has not been explained.

Según Garik Israelian, investigador del IAC y uno de los astrónomos del equipo internacional que ha observado esta estrella, la causa de las explosiones está relacionada con la gran masa de ro Cassiopeiae.
Pero fue en 1945 cuando ro Cassiopeiae expulsó una envoltura masiva y fría que la oscureció durante algunos meses.
Un comportamiento similar podrían tener otras dos estrellas: la V509 Cassiopeiae o HR 8752 y la IRC + 10420.
