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…

On the spatial distribution of luminous blue variables in the M33 galaxy

A. Kostenkov, S. Fabrika, A. Kaldybekova +6

In the current paper, we present a study of the spatial distribution of luminous blue variables (LBVs) and various LBV candidates (cLBVs) with respect to OB associations in the M33…

The Nature of the Emission Spectrum of NGC 7793 P13: modeling the atmosphere of the donor star

A. S. Vinokurov, A. E. Kostenkov, K. E. Atapin +1

We continue to study the ultra-luminous X-ray source NGC 7793 P13 in the optical range. In this work, we are testing the model of a spherically symmetric wind atmosphere of the don…

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…
