Improving Undergraduate Astronomy Students' Skills with Research Literature via Accessible Summaries: An Exploratory Case Study with Astrobites-based Reading Assignments
Briley L. Lewis, Abygail R. Waggoner, Emma Clarke +17
Undergraduate physics and astronomy students are expected to engage with scientific literature as they begin their research careers, but reading comprehension skills are rarely exp…
X-Shooting ULLYSES: massive stars at low metallicity. I. Project Description
Jorick S. Vink, A. Mehner, P. A. Crowther +78
Observations of individual massive stars, super-luminous supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, and gravitational-wave events involving spectacular black-hole mergers, indicate that the low…
X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity. III. Terminal wind speeds of ULLYSES massive stars
C. Hawcroft, H. Sana, L. Mahy +26
The winds of massive stars have an impact on stellar evolution and on the surrounding medium. The maximum speed reached by these outflows, the terminal wind speed, is a global wind…
Exploring the influence of different velocity fields on Wolf-Rayet star spectra
Roel R. Lefever, Andreas A. C. Sander, Tomer Shenar +3
Given their strong stellar winds, Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars exhibit emission line spectra that are predominantly formed in expanding atmospheric layers. The description of the wind vel…
The temperature dependency of Wolf-Rayet-type mass loss: An exploratory study for winds launched by the hot iron bump
A. A. C. Sander, R. R. Lefever, L. G. Poniatowski +3
CONTEXT: The mass loss of He-burning stars, which are partially or completely stripped of their outer hydrogen envelope, is a catalyst of the cosmic matter cycle and decisive ingre…
