The study of AF And. I. Hydrogen abundance constraints and dynamically-consistent wind model of the hot state

E. O. Dedov, A. E. Kostenkov, A. S. Vinokurov +1

This paper starts a series of works devoted to an in-depth study of luminous blue variable AF And in the M31 galaxy. Here we present the results of non-LTE modelling of the star in…

Probing the wind and evolutionary state of the quiescent luminous blue variable Var2 in the Galaxy M33: constraints from self-consistent non-LTE modeling

A. Kostenkov, Y. Solovyeva, E. Dedov +2

Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs) are massive stars with extreme luminosities, exhibiting significant irregular photometric and spectroscopic variability. This paper is dedicated to t…

Confirmation of the star J004229.87+410551.8 in M31 as a B[e] supergiant

Sarkisyan A., Vinokurov A., Solovyeva Yu. +4

We study the luminous blue variable candidate J004229.87+410551.8 in the Andromeda Galaxy. Earlier, the star displayed a spectral anomaly: although a hot emission spectrum had been…

Search for LBVs in the Local Volume galaxies: study of four stars in NGC 4449

Y. Solovyeva, A. Vinokurov, A. Sarkisyan +8

We continue to search for LBV stars in galaxies outside the Local Group. In this work, we have investigated four luminous stars in NGC 4449. Multiple spectral observations carried…

New data for the LBV in NGC 4736

Y. Solovyeva, A. Vinokurov, A. Kostenkov +3

We present new spectral and photometric data of confirmed LBV star from the NGC4736 galaxy. The star NGC4736_1 (Mbol = -11.5 mag) showed noticeable spectral variability from 2015 t…

Modeling spectra of MN112

A. Kostenkov, S. Fabrika, O. Sholukhova +2

MN112 is the Galactic luminous blue variable (LBV) candidate with circumstellar nebula. P Cygni is the first discovered LBV, which was recorded during major eruptions in the 17th c…

Luminous Blue Variable candidates in M31

A. Sarkisyan, O. Sholukhova, S. Fabrika +7

We study five Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) candidates in the Andromeda galaxy and one more (MN112) in the Milky Way. We obtain the same-epoch near-infrared (NIR) and optical spectr…

New Luminous Blue Variable Candidates in NGC 4736

Y. Solovyeva, A. Vinokurov, S. Fabrika +8

We have found three new LBV candidates in the star-forming galaxy NGC 4736. They show typical well-known LBV spectra, broad and strong hydrogen lines, He I lines, many Fe II lines,…

New Luminous Blue Variables in the Andromeda galaxy

O. Sholukhova, D. Bizyaev, S. Fabrika +3

We performed spectroscopy of five Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) candidates and two known LBV stars (AE And and Var A-1) in M31. We obtained the same-epoch near-infrared (NIR) and op…
