Models of infrared spectra of Sakurai's Object (V4334 Sgr) in 1997
Theoretical spectral energy distributions computed for a grid of
hydrogen-deficient and carbon-rich model atmospheres have been compared with
the observed infrared (1--2.5 m) spectra of V4334 Sgr (Sakurai's Object)
on 1997 April 21 and July 13. The comparison yields an effective temperature of
\Tef = 5500 200 K for the April date and \Tef = 5250 200 K for
July. The observed spectra are well fitted by Asplund et al. (1999) abundances,
except that the carbon abundance is higher by 0.3 dex. Hot dust produces
significant excess continuum at the long wavelength ends of the 1997 spectra.

For the synthesis of the student model used mathematical apparatus of temporal logic. The form of a software implementation, the student model is representation in the form of an intelligent agent. Further stages of developing a new approach based on the development of the model of the student group as a community of intelligent agents, and on the notion of the learning process of students in the form of multi-agent system. A multi-agent system will be used to support decision-making by different levels (deans, vice-rector for scientific and pedagogical work) in the event of disputes in the learning process of individual students and student groups. Keywords: student, student group, the trajectory of education, educational process, process model, multi-agent systems, intelligent agents, temporal logic. Аннотация: изложен один из этапов реализации подхода к организации компьютерной поддержки принятия решений по определению траектории обучения студентов в ВУЗах, а именно синтез модели обучаемого. Для синтеза модели обучаемого использован математический аппарат темпоральной логики. Формой программной реализации модели обучаемого является его представление в виде интеллектуального агента. Дальнейшие этапы разрабатываемого подхода основаны на разработке модели студенческой группы как сообщества интеллектуальных агентов, и на представлении процесса обучения студентов в форме мультиагентной системы. Мультиагентная система будет использоваться для поддержки принятия решений руководителями разных уровней (деканами, проректорами по научно-педагогической работе) при возникновении спорных ситуаций в процессе обучения как отдельных студентов, так и студенческих групп.

Atomic lines in infrared spectra for ultracool dwarfs
We provide a set of atomic lines which are suitable for the description of
ultracool dwarf spectra from 10000 to 25000 \AA. This atomic linelist was made
using both synthetic spectra calculations and existing atlases of infrared
spectra of Arcturus and Sunspot umbra. We present plots, which show the
comparison of synthetic spectra and observed Arcturus and Sunspot umbral
spectra for all atomic lines likely to be observable in high resolution
infrared spectra.Comment: 21 pages, 2 tables, 129 figures, figures are available only at

VLT X-shooter spectroscopy of the nearest brown dwarf binary
The aim of the project is to characterise both components of the nearest
brown dwarf sytem to the Sun, WISE J104915.57-531906.1 (=Luhman16AB) at optical
and near-infrared wavelengths. We obtained high signal-to-noise
intermediate-resolution (R~6000-11000) optical (600-1000 nm) and near-infrared
(1000-2480nm) spectra of each component of Luhman16AB, the closest brown dwarf
binary to the Sun, with the X-Shooter instrument on the Very Large Telescope.
We classify the primary and secondary of the Luhman16 system as L6-L7.5 and
T0+/-1, respectively, in agreement with previous measurements published in the
literature. We present measurements of the lithium pseudo-equivalent widths,
which appears of similar strength on both components (8.2+/-1.0 Angstroms and
8.4+/-1.5 Angstroms for the L and T components, respectively). The presence of
lithium (Lithium 7) in both components imply masses below 0.06 Msun while
comparison with models suggests lower limits of 0.04 Msun. The detection of
lithium in the T component is the first of its kind. Similarly, we assess the
strength of other alkali lines (e.g. pseudo-equivalent widths of 6-7 Angstroms
for RbI and 4-7 Angstroms for CsI) present in the optical and near-infrared
regions and compare with estimates for L and T dwarfs. We also derive effective
temperatures and luminosities of each component of the binary: -4.66+/-0.08 dex
and 1305(+180)(-135) for the L dwarf and -4.68+/-0.13 dex and 1320(+185)(-135)
for the T dwarf, respectively. Using our radial velocity determinations, the
binary does not appear to belong to any of the well-known moving group. Our
preliminary theoretical analysis of the optical and J-band spectra indicates
that the L- and T-type spectra can be reproduced with a single temperature and
gravity but different relative chemical abundances which impact strongly the
spectral energy distribution of L/T transition objects.Comment: 12 pages, 9 figure, 3 tables, accepted to A&
Masses, Oxygen and Carbon abundances in CHEPS dwarf stars
Reproduced with permission from Astronomy & Astrophysics. © 2019 ESOContext. We report the results from the determination of stellar masses, carbon, and oxygen abundances in the atmospheres of 107 stars from the Calan-Hertfordshire Extrasolar Planet Search (CHEPS) programme. Our stars are drawn from a population with a significantly super-solar metallicity. At least 10 of these stars are known to host orbiting planets. Aims. In this work, we set out to understand the behaviour of carbon and oxygen abundance in stars with different spectral classes, metallicities, and V sin i within the metal-rich stellar population. Methods. Masses of these stars were determined using data from Gaia DR2. Oxygen and carbon abundances were determined by fitting the absorption lines. We determined oxygen abundances with fits to the 6300.304 Å O I line, and we used 3 lines of the C I atom and 12 lines of the C 2 molecule for the determination of carbon abundances. Results. We determine masses and abundances of 107 CHEPS stars. There is no evidence that the [C/O] ratio depends on V sin i or the mass of the star within our constrained range of masses, i.e. 0.82 5 km s -1) are massive stars.Peer reviewedFinal Published versio
High-Dispersion Optical Spectra of Nearby Stars Younger Than The Sun
We present high-dispersion (R~16,000) optical (3900-8700 A) spectra of 390
stars obtained with the Palomar 60 inch telescope. The majority of stars
observed are part of the Spitzer Legacy Science Program "The Formation and
Evolution of Planetary Systems." Through detailed analysis we determine stellar
properties for this sample, including radial and rotational velocities, Li I
6708 and Ha equivalent widths, the chromospheric activity index R'_HK, and
temperature- and gravity-sensitive line ratios. Several spectroscopic binaries
are also identified. From our tabulations, we illustrate basic age- and
rotation-related correlations among measured indices. One novel result is that
Ca II chromospheric emission appears to saturate at vsini values above ~30
km/s, similar to the well established saturation of X-rays that originate in
the spatially separate coronal regions.Comment: 1 electronic table; published in the Astronomical Journa
The turbulent spectrum created by non-Abelian plasma instabilities
Recent numerical work on the fate of plasma instabilities in weakly-coupled
non-Abelian gauge theory has shown the development of a cascade of energy from
long to short wavelengths. This cascade has a steady-state spectrum, analogous
to the Kolmogorov spectrum for turbulence in hydrodynamics or for energy
cascades in other systems. In this paper, we theoretically analyze processes
responsible for this cascade and find a steady-state spectrum f_k ~ k^-2, where
f_k is the phase-space density of particles with momentum k. The exponent -2 is
consistent with results from numerical simulations. We also discuss
implications of the emerging picture of instability development on the
"bottom-up" thermalization scenario for (extremely high energy) heavy ion
collisions, emphasizing fundamental questions that remain to be answered.Comment: 17 pages, 5 figure
Optical studies of the X-ray transient XTE J2123-058 -I. Photometry
We present optical photometry of the X-ray transient XTE J2123-058, obtained
in July-October 1998. The light curves are strongly modulated on the 5.95hrs
orbital period, and exhibit dramatic changes in amplitude and form during the
decline. We used synthetic models which include the effect of partial eclipses
and X-ray heating effects, to estimate the system parameters, and we constrain
the binary inclination to be i=73+-4 degrees. The model is successful in
reproducing the light curves at different stages of the decay by requiring the
accretion disc to become smaller and thinner by 30% as the system fades by 1.7
mags in the optical. From Aug 26 the system reaches quiescence with a mean
magnitude of R=21.7+-0.1 and our data are consistent with the optical
variability being dominated by the companion's ellipsoidal modulation.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figure
