A Library of Theoretical Ultraviolet Spectra of Massive, Hot Stars for Evolutionary Synthesis

Claus Leitherer, Paula A. Ortiz Otálvaro, Fabio Bresolin +5

We computed a comprehensive set of theoretical ultraviolet spectra of hot, massive stars with the radiation-hydrodynamics code WM-Basic. This model atmosphere and spectral synthesi…

The ultraviolet and optical spectra of luminous B-type stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud

C. J. Evans, D. J. Lennon, N. R. Walborn +2

We present ultraviolet spectra from the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) of 12 early B-type stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), comprising 9 supergiants and 3 gia…

Spectral Modelling of Star-Forming Regions in the Ultraviolet: Stellar Metallicity Diagnostics for High Redshift Galaxies

Samantha A. Rix, Max Pettini, Claus Leitherer +3

The chemical composition of high redshift galaxies is an important property which gives clues to their past history and future evolution and yet is difficult to measure with curren…

New Observations of the Interstellar Medium in the Lyman Break Galaxy MS 1512-cB58

Max Pettini, Samantha A. Rix, Charles C. Steidel +3

We present the results of a detailed study of the interstellar medium of MS 1512-cB58, an L* Lyman break galaxy at z = 2.7276, based on new spectral observations obtained with the…
