The ARAUCARIA Project: VLT-FORS spectroscopy of blue supergiants in NGC 3109 - Classifications, first abundances and kinematics

C. J. Evans, F. Bresolin, M. A. Urbaneja +3

We have obtained multi-object spectroscopy of luminous blue supergiants in NGC 3109, a galaxy at the periphery of the Local Group at ~1.3 Mpc. We present a detailed catalog includi…

The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Surface chemical compositions of B-type stars in the Magellanic Clouds

I. Hunter, P. L. Dufton, S. J. Smartt +6

We present an analysis of high-resolution FLAMES spectra of approximately 50 early B-type stars in three young clusters at different metallicities, NGC6611 in the Galaxy, N11 in th…

The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars: Stellar parameters and rotational velocities in NGC3293, NGC4755 and NGC6611

P. L. Dufton, S. J. Smartt, J. K. Lee +8

An analysis is presented of VLT-FLAMES spectroscopy for three Galactic clusters, NGC3293, NGC4755 and NGC6611. Non-LTE model atmosphere calculations have been used to estimate effe…

The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Mass loss and rotation of early-type stars in the SMC

M. R. Mokiem, A. de Koter, C. J. Evans +9

We have studied the optical spectra of a sample of 31 O- and early B-type stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud, 21 of which are associated with the young massive cluster NGC 346. St…

The VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars: Observations centered on the Magellanic Cloud clusters NGC 330, NGC 346, NGC 2004, and the N11 region

C. J. Evans, D. J. Lennon, S. J. Smartt +1

We present new observations of 470 stars using the Fibre Large Array Multi-Element Spectrograph (FLAMES) instrument in fields centered on the clusters NGC 330 and NGC 346 in the Sm…
