High Energy Processes in Wolf-Rayet Stars

Stephen L. Skinner, Werner Schmutz, Manuel Guedel +1

Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars are massive (10 M) evolved stars undergoing advanced nuclear burning in their cores, rapidly approaching the end of their lives as supernovae.…

Spectral observations of X Persei: Connection between H-alpha and X-ray emission

R. Zamanov, K. A. Stoyanov, U. Wolter +2

We present spectroscopic observations of the Be/X-ray binary X Per obtained during the period 1999 - 2018. Using new and published data, we found that during "disc-rise" the expans…

An XMM-Newton observation of the symbiotic star AG Peg: the X-ray emission after the end of its 2015 outburst

Svetozar A. Zhekov, Toma V. Tomov

We present an analysis of the XMM-Newton observation of the symbiotic star AG Peg, obtained after the end of its 2015 outburst. The X-ray emission of AG Peg is soft and of thermal…

Response to comment on "An excess of massive stars in the local 30 Doradus starburst"

F. R. N. Schneider, H. Sana, C. J. Evans +29

Farr and Mandel reanalyse our data, finding initial-mass-function slopes for high mass stars in 30 Doradus that agree with our results. However, their reanalysis appears to underpr…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. XXIX. Massive star formation in the local 30 Doradus starburst

F. R. N. Schneider, O. H. Ramírez-Agudelo, F. Tramper +24

The 30 Doradus (30 Dor) nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is the brightest HII region in the Local Group and a prototype starburst similar to those found in high redshift…

The recurrent nova RS Oph - simultaneous B and V band observations of the flickering variability

R. K. Zamanov, S. Boeva, G. Y. Latev +7

We performed 48.6 hours (in 28 nights) of simultaneous B and V band observations of the flickering variability of the recurrent nova RS Oph in quiescence. During the time of our ob…

NSVS 2569022: a peculiar binary among the W UMa stars with extremely small mass ratios

Diana P. Kjurkchieva, Velimir A. Popov, Nikola I. Petrov

Photometric observations of the W UMa binary NSVS 2569022 are presented. The light curve solution reveals that both components are of F spectral type (temperatures ==6100…

Evolution of the magnetic field of Betelgeuse from 2009 - 2017

P. Mathias, M. Aurière, A. López Ariste +14

Betelgeuse is an M-type supergiant that presents a circularly polarized (Stokes V) signal in its line profiles, interpreted in terms of a surface magnetic field. The weak circular…

Spectroscopic and physical parameters of Galactic O-type stars. III. Mass discrepancy and rotational mixing

Nevena Markova, Joachim Puls, Norbert Langer

Massive stars play a key role in the evolution of the Universe. Our goal is to compare observed and predicted properties of single Galactic O stars to identify and constrain uncert…

An excess of massive stars in the local 30 Doradus starburst

F. R. N. Schneider, H. Sana, C. J. Evans +29

The 30 Doradus star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud is a nearby analogue of large star-formation events in the distant Universe. We determine the recent formation hist…
