Fast-spinning massive black holes from slowly rotating low-metallicity stars: Implications for GW231123

N. H. Ismail, N. Yusof, R. Hirschi +4

The origin of massive black holes in the early universe remains uncertain and still unexplored. Pop III stars are among the first stellar sources capable of producing such remnants…

The Beauty of k2: Probing Stellar Interiors Using Apsidal Motion. I. The Benchmark Massive Binary HD 152248

Sophie Rosu, Luca Sciarini, Sylvia Ekström +4

Over the last decades, several independent studies have shown the need for large convective boundary mixing (CBM) and convective core sizes in massive stars to reproduce a variety…

On the origin of the rotation of massive stars

André Oliva, Facundo D. Moyano, Luca Sciarini +3

We explore the origin of the rotation rates of massive stars. Contrary to their low-mass siblings, most massive stars do not have detectable magnetic fields, so that star-disk inte…

New self-consistent theoretical descriptions for mass-loss rates of O-type stars

F. Figueroa-Tapia, J. A. Panei, M. Curé +5

Massive O-type stars lose a significant fraction of their mass through radiation-driven winds, a process that critically shapes their evolution and feedback into the interstellar m…

Chemical evolution of close massive binaries -- tidally-enhanced or tidally-suppressed mixing?

Luca Sciarini, Sophie Rosu, Sylvia Ekström +3

One of the largest source of uncertainties in the predictions of stellar models comes from the internal transport mechanisms. In close massive binaries, previous theoretical studie…

Revisiting the Evolutionary Status of Massive Stars at the central parsec of the Milky Way

A. C. Gormaz-Matamala, J. Cuadra, B. Kubátová +2

Massive stars and their winds have a large influence in their environment, e.g, determining the accretion rate on to the Galactic Centre (GC) super-massive black hole Sgr A*. The w…
