2D unified atmosphere and wind simulations for a grid of O-type stars

Nicolas Moens, Dwaipayan Debnath, Olivier Verhamme +4

The atmospheres of massive O-type stars (O stars) are dynamic, turbulent environments resulting from radiatively driven instabilities over the iron bump, located slightly beneath t…

A high fraction of close massive binary stars at low metallicity

H. Sana, T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner +74

At high metallicity, a majority of massive stars have at least one close stellar companion. The evolution of such binaries is subject to strong interaction processes, heavily impac…

Spectral synthesis of 3D unified model atmospheres with winds for O stars

L. Delbroek, J. O. Sundqvist, D. Debnath +5

Spectroscopic studies of massive and luminous O-type stellar atmospheres and winds have primarily been done by using 1D, spherically symmetric and stationary models. Both observati…

Investigating silicate, carbon, and water in the diffuse interstellar medium: the first shots from WISCI

S. T. Zeegers, Jonathan P. Marshall, Karl D. Gordon +33

The dusty interstellar medium (ISM) of the Milky Way is distributed in a complex, cloudy structure. It is fundamental to the radiation balance within the Milky Way, provides a reac…

An on-the-fly line-driven-wind iterative mass-loss estimator (LIME) for hot, massive stars of arbitrary chemical compositions

J. O. Sundqvist, D. Debnath, F. Backs +7

Mass-loss rates from hot, massive stars are important for a range of astrophysical applications. We present \href{https://lime.ster.kuleuven.be/}{LIME}, a fast, efficient, and easy…

The wind properties of O-type stars at sub-SMC metallicity

Ciarán Furey, O. Grace Telford, Alex de Koter +7

Radiation-driven winds heavily influence the evolution and fate of massive stars. Feedback processes from these winds impact the properties of the interstellar medium of their host…

X-Shooting ULLYSES: massive stars at low metallicity: XII. The clumped winds of O-type (super)giants in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Sarah A. Brands, Frank Backs, Alex de Koter +23

Mass loss governs the evolution of massive stars and shapes the stellar surroundings. To quantify the impact of the stellar winds we need to know the exact mass-loss rates; however…
