Detection of warm water vapour in Taurus protoplanetary discs by Herschel

P. Riviere-Marichalar, F. Ménard, W. F. Thi +12

Line spectra of 68 Taurus T Tauri stars were obtained with the Herschel-PACS (Photodetector Array Camera & Spectrometer) instrument as part of the GASPS (Gas Evolution in Protoplan…

Two Remarkable Spectroscopic Categories of Young O Stars from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey

Nolan R. Walborn, Hugues Sana, William D. Taylor +2

The spectral and spatial characteristics of two special categories of O stars found in the VFTS dataset are presented. One of them comprises very rapid rotators, including several…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey: The fastest rotating O-type star and shortest period LMC pulsar - remnants of a supernova disrupted binary?

P. L. Dufton, P. R. Dunstall, C. J. Evans +12

We present a spectroscopic analysis of an extremely rapidly rotating late O-type star, VFTS102, observed during a spectroscopic survey of 30 Doradus. VFTS102 has a projected rotati…

UCAC3 Proper Motion Survey. II. Discovery Of New Proper Motion Stars In UCAC3 With 0.40" yr^-1 > mu >= 0.18" yr^-1 Between Declinations -47 deg and 00 deg

C. T. Finch, N. Zacharias, M. R. Boyd +2

We present 474 new proper motion stellar systems in the southern sky having no previously known components, with 0.40" yr^-1 > mu >= 0.18" yr^-1 between declinations -47 deg and 00…

Gas modelling in the disc of HD 163296

I. Tilling, P. Woitke, G. Meeus +19

We present detailed model fits to observations of the disc around the Herbig Ae star HD 163296. This well-studied object has an age of ~ 4 Myr, with evidence of a circumstellar dis…

First visual orbit for the prototypical colliding-wind binary WR 140

J. D. Monnier, Ming Zhao, E. Pedretti +14

Wolf-Rayet stars represent one of the final stages of massive stellar evolution. Relatively little is known about this short-lived phase and we currently lack reliable mass, distan…
