Hst Proposal Id #6732 Binaries And Star Formation

Scientific paper

This proposal intends to follow the evolution of the R Aqr jet. The same observations will also tell us about the changing structure of the nebula in the symbiotic binary R Aqr. Together with our earlier observations these new observations will provide the data to do proper motion studies of the jet that is one of the most prominent features of Aqr. FOC images will be taken in the UV and visible O III bands for comparison with previous FOC images taken by the PI. They will provide a homogeneous data set which can then serve as observational basis for modeling that system. R Aqr is the nearest symbiotic system, and the only one, where FOC on HST can provide spatial resolution down to the core of the system. This data will provide a 6 year baseline for studying the evolution of the binary system at a spatial resolution unattainable anywhere else for these key spectral regions.
