PolStar -- An Explorer-Class FUV Spectropolarimetry Mission to Map the Environments of Massive Stars
Paul Scowen, Richard Ignace, Coralie Neiner +26
PolStar is an Explorer-class far ultraviolet (FUV) spectropolarimetry mission designed to target massive stars and their environments. PolStar will take advantage of resonance line…
Closing gaps to our origins. The UV window into the Universe
Ana I. Gomez de Castro, Martin A. Barstow, Fréderic Baudin +23
The investigation of the emergence of life is a major endeavour of science. Astronomy is contributing to it in three fundamental manners: (1) by measuring the chemical enrichment o…
Massive stars in extremely metal-poor galaxies: A window into the past
M. Garcia, C. J. Evans, J. M. Bestenlehner +19
Cosmic History has witnessed the lives and deaths of multiple generations of massive stars, all of them invigorating their host galaxies with ionizing photons, kinetic energy, fres…
Stellar Physics with High-Resolution UV Spectropolarimetry
Julien Morin, Jean-Claude Bouret, Coralie Neiner +26
Current burning issues in stellar physics, for both hot and cool stars, concern their magnetism. In hot stars, stable magnetic fields of fossil origin impact their stellar structur…
Massive stars in the young cluster VVV CL074
F. Martins, A. N. Chené, J. -C. Bouret +4
We obtained K-band spectroscopy of the brightest members of the cluster VVV CL074 in order to identify the massive star population. We also determined the stellar properties of the…
The role of Active Galactic Nuclei in galaxy evolution: insights from space ultraviolet spectropolarimetry
F. Marin, S. Charlot, B. Agís González +6
This Astro2020 white paper summarizes the unknowns of active galactic nuclei (AGN) physics that could be unveiled thanks to a new, space-born, ultraviolet spectropolarimeter. The u…
