The IACOB project XIV. New clues on the location of the TAMS in the massive star domain
A. de Burgos, S. Simón-Díaz, M. A. Urbaneja +4
Massive stars play a very important role in many astrophysical fields. Yet, some fundamental aspects of their evolution remain poorly constrained. In this regard, there is an open…
Spindown of massive main sequence stars in the Milky Way
K. Nathaniel, N. Langer, S. Simón-Díaz +3
Context. We need to understand the spin evolution of massive stars to compute their internal rotationally induced mixing processes, isolate effects of close binary evolution, and p…
On the evolutionary nature of massive B-type supergiants: a modern empirical reappraisal using data from IACOB, Gaia and TESS
Abel de Burgos
Massive stars are key contributors to the chemodynamical evolution of galaxies and the Universe. Despite their significance, discrepancies between observational data and theoretica…
The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212
WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
The Hydrogen-Poor Superluminous Supernovae from the Zwicky Transient Facility Phase-I Survey: I. Light Curves and Measurements
Z. H. Chen, Lin Yan, T. Kangas +40
During the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) Phase-I operation, 78 hydrogen-poor superluminous supernovae (SLSNe-I) were discovered in less than three years, making up the largest sa…
Variability of OB stars from TESS southern Sectors 1-13 and high-resolution IACOB and OWN spectroscopy
S. Burssens, S. Simón-Díaz, D. M. Bowman +6
Lack of high-precision long-term continuous photometric data for large samples of stars has prevented the large-scale exploration of pulsational variability in the OB star regime.…
A detailed non-LTE analysis of LB-1: Revised parameters and surface abundances
S. Simón-Díaz, J. Maíz Apellániz, D. J. Lennon +8
LB-1 has recently been proposed to be a binary system at 4 kpc consisting of a B star of 8 Msol and a massive stellar black hole of 70 Msol. This finding challenges our current the…
Stars and brown dwarfs in the sigma Orionis cluster. IV. IDS/INT and OSIRIS/GTC spectroscopy and Gaia DR2 astrometry
J. A. Caballero, A. de Burgos, F. J. Alonso-Floriano +3
Context. Only a few open clusters are as important for the study of stellar and substellar objects, and their formation and evolution, as the young sigma Orionis cluster. However,…
