Imaging the dense stellar cluster R136 with VLT-MAD
M. A. Campbell, C. J. Evans, J. Ascenso +4
We evaluate the performance of the Multi-conjugate Adaptive optics Demonstrator (MAD) from H and Ks imaging of 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Maps of the full-width half…
The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars
C. J. Evans, I. Hunter, S. J. Smartt +12
The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars was an ESO Large Programme to understand rotational mixing and stellar mass-loss in different metallicity environments, in order to better co…
Kinematics of massive stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Christopher J. Evans, Ian D. Howarth
We present radial velocities for 2045 stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), obtained from the 2dF survey by Evans et al. (2004). The great majority of these stars are of OBA t…
The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: rotation and nitrogen enrichment as the key to understanding massive star evolution
I. Hunter, I. Brott, D. J. Lennon +7
Rotation has become an important element in evolutionary models of massive stars, specifically via the prediction of rotational mixing. Here, we study a sample of stars, including…
The Magellanic Clouds as a template for the study of stellar populations and galaxy interactions
M. -R. L. Cioni, K. Bekki, G. Clementini +18
The Magellanic System represents one of the best places to study the formation and evolution of galaxies. Photometric surveys of various depths, areas and wavelengths have had a si…
The empirical metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rate of O- and early B-type stars
M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, J. S. Vink +9
[Abridged] We present a comprehensive study of the metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rates in stationary stellar winds of hot massive stars. Assuming a power-law dependence o…
