2014-2017 photometry for ASASSN-13db

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Accretion outbursts are key elements in star formation.

Description

ASASSN-13db is a M5-type star with a protoplanetary disk, the lowest-mass star known to experience accretion outbursts. Since its discovery in 2013, it has experienced two outbursts, the second of which started in November 2014 and lasted until February 2017.

We explore the photometric and spectroscopic behavior of ASASSN-13db during the 2014-2017 outburst. We use high- and low-resolution spectroscopy and time-resolved photometry from the ASAS-SN survey, the LCOGT and the Beacon Observatory to study the lightcurve of ASASSN-13db and the dynamical and physical properties of the accretion flow. Results.

The 2014-2017 outburst lasted for nearly 800 days. A 4.15d period in the light curve likely corresponds to rotational modulation of a star with hot spot(s). The spectra show multiple emission lines with variable inverse P-Cygni profiles and a highly variable blue-shifted absorption below the continuum.

Line ratios from metallic emission lines (FeI/FeII, TiI/TiII) suggest temperatures of ~5800-6000K in the accretion flow.
