Mass loss from hot massive stars
J. Puls, J. S. Vink, F. Najarro
Mass loss is a key process in the evolution of massive stars, and must be understood quantitatively to be successfully included in broader astrophysical applications. In this revie…
The Physical Properties and Effective Temperature Scale of O-type Stars as a Function of Metallicity. III. More Results from the Magellanic Clouds
Philip Massey, Amanda M. Zangari, Nidia I. Morrell +4
In order to better determine the physical properties of hot, massive stars as a function of metallicity, we obtained very high SNR optical spectra of 26 O and early B stars in the…
Bright OB stars in the Galaxy IV. Stellar and wind parameters of early to late B supergiants
N. Markova, J. Puls
We apply the NLTE atmosphere code FASTWIND to perform a spectroscopic study of a small sample of Galactic B-supergiants from B0 to B9. By means of the resulting data and incorporat…
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…
Towards an understanding of the Of?p star HD 191612: optical spectroscopy
Ian D. Howarth, Nolan R. Walborn, Danny J. Lennon +17
We present extensive optical spectroscopy of the early-type magnetic star HD 191612 (O6.5f?pe-O8fp). The Balmer and HeI lines show strongly variable emission which is highly reprod…
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…
