The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey
Jorick S. Vink, C. J. Evans, J. Bestenlehner +5
We present a number of notable results from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS), an ESO Large Program during which we obtained multi-epoch medium-resolution optical spectroscopy…
Rotating Massive Main-Sequence Stars II: Simulating a Population of LMC early B-type Stars as a Test of Rotational Mixing
Ines Brott, Chris J. Evans, Ian Hunter +9
Rotational mixing in massive stars is a widely applied concept, with far reaching consequences for stellar evolution. Nitrogen surface abundances for a large and homogeneous sample…
Rotating Massive Main-Sequence Stars I: Grids of Evolutionary Models and Isochrones
Ines Brott, Selma E. de Mink, Matteo Cantiello +6
We present a dense grid of evolutionary tracks and isochrones of rotating massive main-sequence stars. We provide three grids with different initial compositions tailored to compar…
A survey of diffuse interstellar bands in the Andromeda galaxy: optical spectroscopy of M31 OB stars
Martin A. Cordiner, Nick L. J. Cox, Christopher J. Evans +4
We present the largest sample to-date of intermediate-resolution blue-to-red optical spectra of B-type supergiants in M31 and undertake the first survey of diffuse interstellar ban…
Multiple Major Outbursts from a Restless Luminous Blue Variable in NGC 3432
A. Pastorello, M. T. Botticella, C. Trundle +16
We present new photometric and spectroscopic observations of an unusual luminous blue variable (LBV) in NGC 3432, covering three major outbursts in October 2008, April 2009 and Nov…
SN 2009kf : a UV bright type IIP supernova discovered with Pan-STARRS 1 and GALEX
M. T. Botticella, C. Trundle, A. Pastorello +43
We present photometric and spectroscopic observations of a luminous type IIP Supernova 2009kf discovered by the Pan-STARRS 1 (PS1) survey and detected also by GALEX. The SN shows a…
