The empirical metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rate of O- and early B-type stars
M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, J. S. Vink +9
[Abridged] We present a comprehensive study of the metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rates in stationary stellar winds of hot massive stars. Assuming a power-law dependence o…
The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Wind properties and evolution of hot massive stars in the LMC
M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, C. J. Evans +9
[Abridged] We have studied the optical spectra of 28 O- and early B-type stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud, 22 of which are associated with the young star-forming region N11. Ste…
The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Mass loss and rotation of early-type stars in the SMC
M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, C. J. Evans +9
We have studied the optical spectra of a sample of 31 O- and early B-type stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud, 21 of which are associated with the young massive cluster NGC 346. St…
Chemical composition of Galactic OB stars II. The fast rotator Z Oph
M. R. Villamariz, A. Herrero
Z Oph, HD149757, is an O9.5 Vnn star with a very high projected rotational velocity (vsini >= 340 km\s). It is also a classical runaway star due to its high proper motion. We perfo…
Spectral analysis of early-type stars using a genetic algorithm based fitting method
M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, J. Puls +3
We present the first automated fitting method for the quantitative spectroscopy of O- and early B-type stars with stellar winds. The method combines the non-LTE stellar atmosphere…
The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars: Observations in the Galactic Clusters NGC 3293, NGC 4755 and NGC 6611
C. J. Evans, S. J. Smartt, J. -K. Lee +23
We introduce a new survey of massive stars in the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds using the Fibre Large Array Multi-Element Spectrograph (FLAMES) instrument at the Very Large Tele…
