The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XXVI: Properties of the O-dwarf population in 30 Doradus

C. Sabín-Sanjulián, S. Simón-Díaz, A. Herrero +21

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey has observed hundreds of O-type stars in the 30 Doradus region of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We study the properties of 105 apparently single…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XXIV. Stellar properties of the O-type giants and supergiants in 30 Doradus

O. H. Ramírez-Agudelo, H. Sana, A. de Koter +21

The Tarantula region in the Large Magellanic Cloud contains the richest population of spatially resolved massive O-type stars known so far. This unmatched sample offers an opportun…

Magnetic massive stars as progenitors of "heavy" stellar-mass black holes

V. Petit, Z. Keszthelyi, R. MacInnis +7

The groundbreaking detection of gravitational waves produced by the inspiralling and coalescence of the black hole (BH) binary GW150914 confirms the existence of "heavy" stellar-ma…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XXV. Surface nitrogen abundances of O-type giants and supergiants

N. J. Grin, O. H. Ramirez-Agudelo, A. de Koter +19

Theoretically, rotation-induced chemical mixing in massive stars has far reaching evolutionary consequences, affecting the sequence of morphological phases, lifetimes, nucleosynthe…
