Search for the magnetic field of the O7.5 III star xi Persei

H. F. Henrichs, R. S. Schnerr, J. A. de Jong +3

Cyclical wind variability is an ubiquitous but as yet unexplained feature among OB stars. The O7.5 III(n)((f)) star xi Persei is the brightest representative of this class on the N…

Circumstellar disks around Herbig Be stars

T. Alonso-Albi, A. Fuente, R. Bachiller +5

We completed a search for circumstellar disks around Herbig Be stars using the NRAO Very Large Array (VLA) and the IRAM Plateau de Bure (PdB) interferometers. We present our new VL…

Diagnoses to unravel secular hydrodynamical processes in rotating main sequence stars

T. Decressin, S. Mathis, A. Palacios +4

(Abridged) We present a detailed analysis of the main physical processes responsible for the transport of angular momentum and chemical species in the radiative regions of rotating…

Testing gravity on large scales. The skewness of the galaxy distribution at z~1

C. Marinoni, L. Guzzo, A. Cappi +54

We study the evolution of the low-order moments of the galaxy overdensity distribution over the redshift interval 0.7<z<1.5. We find that the variance and the normalized skewness e…

Physical properties of galaxies and their evolution in the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey. II. Extending the mass-metallicity relation to the range z=0.89-1.24

E. Perez-Montero, T. Contini, F. Lamareille +39

Aims. We present a continuation of our study about the relation between stellar mass and gas-phase metallicity in the VIMOS VLT Deep Survey (VVDS). In this work we extend the deter…

Stellar mass ejections

M. Jardine, J. -F. Donati, S. G. Gregory

It has been known for some time now that rapidly-rotating solar-like stars possess the stellar equivalent of solar prominences. These may be three orders of magnitude more massive…
