Weekly Update from the Open Journal of Astrophysics – 06/09/2025

It’s Saturday again, so it’s time for a summary of the week’s new papers at the Open Journal of Astrophysics. Since the last update we have published two new papers, which brings the number in Volume 8 (2025) up to 127, and the total so far published by OJAp up to 362. It’s been another relatively slow week, not least because of the Labor (sic) Day holiday in the USA on Monday which, among other things, meant there was no arXiv update on Tuesday.

Anyway, the first paper to report this week is “An analytical model for the dispersion measure of Fast Radio Burst host galaxies” by Robert Reischke, Michael Kovač & Andrina Nicola (U. Bonn, Germany), Steffen Hagstotz (Ludwig-Maximilians Universität München) and Aurel Schneider (U. Zurich, Switzlerland). This is a theoretical study of the dispersion measures (DMs) intrinsic to host galaxies of Fast Radio Burst (FRB) sources to enable separation of that from the line-of-sight DM. This one was published on Monday 1st September 2025 in the folder Cosmology and NonGalactic Astrophysics.

The second paper this week, published on Wednesday 3rd Sepember in the folder Solar and Stellar Astrophysics, is “Complex spectral variability and hints of a luminous companion in the Be star + black hole binary candidate ALS 8814” by Kareem El-Badry (Caltech, USA), Matthias Fabry (Villanova U., USA), Hugues Sana (KU Leuven, Belgium), Tomer Shenar (Tel Aviv U., Israel) and Rhys Seeburger (MPA Heidelberg, Germany).

And that’s all the papers for this week. It’s still a bit slow as we emerge from the summer vacations, we have a lot of papers in the pipeline that I expect to emerge pretty soon.
