Spectroscopic study of the extremely young O-type triple system Herschel 36 A in the Hourglass Nebula. I. Orbital properties

Abdo R. Campillay, Julia I. Arias, Rodolfo H. Barbá +3

We present a detailed spectroscopic study of Herschel 36 A (H36A), the main stellar component of the massive multiple system Herschel 36 in the Hourglass Nebula, based on high-reso…

A Runaway Giant in the Galactic Halo

Philip Massey, Stephen E. Levine, Kathryn F. Neugent +3

New evidence provided by the Gaia satellite places the location of the runaway star J01020100-7122208 in the halo of the Milky Way (MW) rather than in the Small Magellanic Cloud as…

Carnegie Supernova Project-II: The Near-infrared Spectroscopy Program

E. Y. Hsiao, M. M. Phillips, G. H. Marion +42

Shifting the focus of Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) cosmology to the near-infrared (NIR) is a promising way to significantly reduce the systematic errors, as the strategy minimizes our…

A Modern Search for Wolf-Rayet Stars in the Magellanic Clouds. IV. A Final Census

Kathryn F. Neugent, Philip Massey, Nidia Morrell

We summarize the results of our four year survey searching for Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Over the course of this s…
