We have used the technique of spectro-astrometry to study the milli-arcsecond scale structure of the emission lines in the T Tauri star RU Lupi. The wings of the H-alpha emission are found to be displaced from the star towards the…

We present models of the inner region of the circumstellar disk of RY Tau which aim to explain our near-infrared ($K$-band: $2.1\,\mu$m) interferometric observations while remaining consistent with the optical to near-infrared portions of…

We present H-band polarimetric imagery of UX Tau A taken with HiCIAO/AO188 on the Subaru Telescope. UX Tau A has been classified as a pre-transitional disk object, with a gap structure separating its inner and outer disks. Our imagery taken…

We present survey results which suggest rotation signatures at the base of T-Tauri jets. Observations were conducted with the Hubble Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph at optical and near ultraviolet wavelengths (NUV). Results are…

The wind interaction with the dusty environment of the classical T Tauri star RY Tau has been investigated. During two seasons of 2013-2015 we carried out a spectroscopic and photometric (BVR) monitoring of the star. A correlation between…

We present results of high-resolution imaging toward HL Tau by the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA). We have obtained 1.3 and 2.7 mm dust continua with an angular resolution down to 0.13 arc second. Through…

We describe the results of a detailed study of the polarization properties of the broad H-alpha emission line in Type 1 Seyfert nuclei. Our analysis of these data points to a model in which the broad Balmer lines are emitted by a rotating…

We present new medium-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of HD 45677 in the B and R-bands. A change in polarisation is detected across Halpha, Hbeta and Hgamma confirming that the ionised region around the star is aspherical. (Q,U)…

In many symbiotic stars there appear broad wings around H alpha, of which the formation mechanism proposed thus far includes a fast outflow, the inner accretion disc motion, electron scattering and Raman scattering of Ly beta. We adopt a…

We present the results of an intensive coordinated monitoring campaign in the optical and X-ray wavelength ranges of the low-mass, pre-main sequence star V410Tau carried out with the aim to study the relation between various indicators for…

High quality 4500-6800 A spectropolarimetric observations of the Circinus galaxy are reported. These show polarized and relatively broad (FWHM~3300 km/s) Halpha (as well as marginal Hbeta) arising from a <3" (<60 pc) region centered on the…

Spectral and photometric variability of the Classical T Tauri stars RY Tau and SU Aur from 2013 to 2022 is analyzed. We find that in SU Aur the H-alpha line's flux at radial velocity RV = -50 +- 7 km/s varies with a period P = 255 +- 5…

We explore the origin of the flat spectrum seen in some T Tauri stars by considering a three-component structure: a central star, a circumstellar disk, and a dusty halo. The radiative energy transport is faithfully treated by solving the…

Observations of the optical polarization of NGC 4151 in 1997-2003 show variations of an order of magnitude in the polarized flux while the polarization position angle remains constant. The amplitude of variability of the polarized flux is…

We present the results of an analysis of ultraviolet observations of T Tauri Stars (TTS). By analysing emission measures taken from the literature we derive rates of ionizing photons from the chromospheres of 5 classical TTS in the range…

We present new brightness and magnetic images of the weak-line T Tauri star V410 Tau, made using data from the NARVAL spectropolarimeter at Telescope Bernard Lyot (TBL). The brightness image shows a large polar spot and significant spot…

Dust polarization at (sub)millimeter wavelengths has been observed for many protoplanetary disks. Theoretically, multiple origins potentially contribute to the polarized emission but it is still uncertain what mechanism is dominant in disk…

We present photometric and spectroscopic models of the Classical T Tauri star AA Tau. Photometric and spectroscopic variability present in observations of AA Tau is attributed to a magnetically induced warp in the accretion disc,…

Disk polarization in (sub)millimeter dust continuum is a rapidly growing field in the ALMA era. It opens up the exciting possibility of detecting and characterizing magnetic fields and grain growth in disks around young stellar objects.…

We study 12 Seyfert 1 galaxies with a high level of optical polarization. Optical light emerging from the innermost regions is predominantly scattered in a polar region above the central engine directly in our line of sight. These sources…
