By fitting the available photometric data on V838 Mon with standard supergiant spectra we have derived principal stellar parameters, i.e. effective temperature, radius and luminosity, and followed the evolution of the object since its…
Aims. V838 Monocerotis erupted in 2002, brightened in a series of outbursts, and eventually developed a spectacular light echo. A very red star emerged a few months after the outburst. The whole event has been interpreted as the result of a…
The spectroscopic and spectropolarimetric variability of the peculiar variable V838 Monocerotis during the brighter phases of its multiple outbursts in 2002 is presented. Significant line profile variability of H$\alpha$ and Si II…
We report spectra of the overtone and fundamental bands of CO in the eruptive variable V838 Mon, which trace the recent evolution of the star and allow its ejecta to be characterized. The data were obtained at the United Kingdom Infrared…
V838 Mon erupted at the beginning of 2002. Among various scenarios proposed to explain the nature of the outburst, the most promising is a stellar merger event. The results of spectroscopic observations of the object obtained in October…
V838 Mon erupted at the beginning of 2002 becoming an extremely luminous star. Among various scenarios proposed to explain the nature of the outburst the most promising is a stellar merger event. In this paper we investigate the…
Context. V838 Monocerotis is a peculiar binary that underwent an immense stellar explosion in 2002, leaving behind an expanding cool supergiant and a hot B3V companion. Five years after the outburst, the B3V companion disappeared from view,…
We present imaging polarimetry observations of the eruptive variable V838 Monocerotis and its neighboring field obtained in 2002 October. The polarization of field stars confirms the previously determined interstellar polarization along the…
V838 Mon erupted at the beginning of 2002. In the course of the outburst the object evolved to low effective temperatures and declined as a very late M-type supergiant. Among various scenarios proposed to explain the nature of the outburst,…
We report the discovery of multiple shells around the eruptive variable star V838 Mon. Two dust shells are seen in IRAS and MSX images, which themselves are situated in a shell of CO. This securely establishes V838 Mon as an evolved object.…
Following its 2002 February eruption, V838 Mon developed a light echo that continues to expand and evolve as light from the outburst scatters off progressively more distant circumstellar and/or interstellar material. Multi-filter images of…
V838 Mon underwent, after a first nova-like outburst in January and a usual decline, a second outburst after one month, and a third weak one again a month later. Moreover a very small increase of the temperature at the beginning of April…
We present moderate and high resolution infrared spectroscopy of the peculiar eruptive variable V838 Mon, which underwent a series of remarkable outbursts in early 2002. During the period covered by our observations, 2002 December-2003…
We report medium-resolution $0.85-2.45\,\mu$m spectroscopy obtained in 2015 and 2022 and high resolution $2.27-2.39\,\mu$m and $4.59-4.77\,\mu$m spectroscopy obtained in 2015 of V838 Monocerotis, along with modeling of the $0.85-2.45\,\mu$…
The unusual variable star V838 Monocerotis underwent an eruption in 2002. It continues to illuminate a spectacular series of light echoes, as the outburst light is scattered from circumstellar dust. V838 Mon has an unresolved B3 V companion…
In early 2002 V838 Monocerotis had an extraordinary outburst whose nature is still unclear. The optical light curve showed at least three peaks and imaging revealed a light echo around the object - evidence for a dust shell which was…
Context. V838 Mon is an eruptive variable, which exploded in 2002. It displayed the most spectacular light echo ever observed. However, neither the origin of the reflecting matter nor the nature of the 2002 outburst have been firmly…
V838 Monocerotis had an intriguing, nova-like outburst in January 2002 which has subsequently led to several studies of the object. It is now recognized that the outburst of V838 Mon and its evolution are different from that of a classical…
We present spectroscopic and photometric observations of the recent peculiar outburst of V838 Mon, carried out at Rozhen and Torun observatories. Our data cover a period of three months beginning just before the second eruption. The…
We present the results of our polarimetric and spectropolarimetric monitoring of V838 Monocerotis, performed at Asiago and Crimean observatories during and after the multiple outbursts that occurred in January-March 2002. The polarization…
