Further Results from the Galactic O-Star Spectroscopic Survey: Rapidly Rotating Late ON Giants

Nolan R. Walborn, Jesus Maiz Apellaniz, Alfredo Sota +5

With new data from the Galactic O-Star Spectroscopic Survey, we confirm and expand the ONn category of late-O, nitrogen-enriched (N), rapidly rotating (n) giants. In particular, we…
