The birth place of the type Ic Supernova 2007gr
R. Mark Crockett, Justyn R. Maund, Stephen J. Smartt +8
We report our attempts to locate the progenitor of the peculiar type Ic SN 2007gr in HST pre-explosion images of the host galaxy, NGC 1058. Aligning adaptive optics Altair/NIRI ima…
Iron abundances of B-type post-Asymptotic Giant Branch stars in globular clusters: Barnard 29 in M 13 and ROA 5701 in omega Cen
H. M. A. Thompson, F. P. Keenan, P. L. Dufton +4
High resolution optical and ultraviolet spectra of two B-type post-Asymptotic Giant Branch (post-AGB) stars in globular clusters, Barnard 29 in M 13 and ROA 5701 in omega Cen, have…
Observations towards early-type stars in the ESO-POP survey: II -- searches for intermediate and high velocity clouds
J. V. Smoker, I. Hunter, P. M. W. Kalberla +8
We present CaII K and TiII optical spectra of early-type stars taken mainly from the UVES Paranal Observatory Project, plus HI 21-cm spectra from the Vila-Elisa and Leiden-Dwingelo…
A giant outburst two years before the core-collapse of a massive star
A. Pastorello, S. J. Smartt, S. Mattila +32
The death of massive stars produces a variety of supernovae, which are linked to the structure of the exploding stars. The detection of several precursor stars of Type II supernova…
