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…

Discovery of SiC and Iron Dust Around AGB Stars in the very Metal-Poor Sextans A Dwarf Galaxy with JWST: Implications for Dust Production at High Redshift

M. L. Boyer, G. C. Sloan, A. Nanni +23

Low-resolution infrared spectroscopy from JWST confirms the presence of SiC and likely metallic iron dust around asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars in the Sextans A dwarf galaxy,…

Red Supergiant Mass Loss and Mass-Loss Rates

Jacco Th. van Loon

This review discusses the causes, nature, importance and observational evidence of mass loss by red supergiants. It arrives at the perception that mass loss finds its origin in the…

ASKAP-EMU radio continuum detection of planetary nebula NGC 5189: the "Infinity" nebula

A. D. Asher, Z. J. Smeaton, M. D. Filipović +4

We report the radio continuum detection of well known Galactic Planetary Nebula (PN) NGC 5189, observed at 943 MHz during the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) E…

Imaging the innermost circumstellar environment of the red supergiant WOH G64 in the Large Magellanic Cloud

K. Ohnaka, K. -H. Hofmann, G. Weigelt +3

Significant mass loss in the red supergiant (RSG) phase has great influence on the evolution of massive stars and their final fate as supernovae. We present near-infrared interfero…
