Bolometric correction for cosmologically redshifted stars with dust: an update to the YBC database
Yang Chen, Xiaoting Fu, Léo Girardi +2
Observations from HST & JWST continue to reveal gravitationally magnified high-redshift star candidates, resulting in increasing demand for accurate stellar bolometric corrections…
A homogeneous view of asymptotic giant branch carbon stars as seen by Gaia
Alessio Liberatori, Despina Hatzidimitriou, Konstantinos Antoniadis +12
Carbon stars on the asymptotic giant branch are major contributors to galactic dust enrichment, with gas mass-loss rates up to 1e-4 Msun/yr. We present a homogeneous spectral energ…
Enhanced Mass Loss of Very Massive Stars: Impact on the Evolution, Binary Processes, and Remnant Mass Spectrum
Kendall G. Shepherd, Guglielmo Costa, Cristiano Ugolini +7
Very massive stars (VMS) play a fundamental role in astrophysics due to their winds and supernovae (SN), and their role as massive black hole (BH) progenitors. However, their origi…
Discovery of a Weak CN Spectral Absorption Feature in Red Supergiant Stars in the Andromeda (M31) and Triangulum (M33) Galaxies
Puragra Guhathakurta, Douglas Grion Filho, Antara R. Bhattacharya +14
Using Keck DEIMOS spectra of stars in the Andromeda (M31) and Triangulum (M33) galaxies, selected from the large multi-band (near ultraviolet, visible light, and near infrared) Hub…
Strikingly high fraction of fast rotators in Magellanic Cloud star clusters
Greta Ettorre, Alessandro Mazzi, Leo Girardi +14
There has been growing evidence that the rich star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds contain significant fractions of rapidly rotating stars. In this work, we aim to constrain thes…
The Local Ultraviolet to Infrared Treasury I. Survey Overview of the Broadband Imaging
Karoline M. Gilbert, Yumi Choi, Martha L. Boyer +21
The Local Ultraviolet to Infrared Treasury (LUVIT) is a Hubble Space Telescope program that combines newly acquired data in the near ultraviolet (NUV), optical, and near infrared (…
