A census of massive stars in NGC 346. Stellar parameters and rotational velocities

P. L. Dufton, C. J. Evans, I. Hunter +2

Spectroscopy for 247 stars towards the young cluster NGC 346 in the Small Magellanic Cloud has been combined with that for 116 targets from the VLT-FLAMES Survey of Massive Stars.…

The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: NGC346-013 as a test case for massive close binary evolution

B. W. Ritchie, V. E. Stroud, C. J. Evans +5

NGC346-013 is a peculiar double-lined eclipsing binary in the Small Magellanic Cloud discovered by the VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars. Spectra obtained with VLT-FLAMES are used…

The VLT-FLAMES survey of massive stars: Nitrogen abundances for Be-type stars in the Magellanic Clouds

P. R. Dunstall, I. Brott, P. L. Dufton +4

Aims. We compare the predictions of evolutionary models for early-type stars with atmospheric parameters, projected rotational velocities and nitrogen abundances estimated for a sa…

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…

Atmospheric parameters and rotational velocities for a sample of Galactic B-type supergiants

M. Fraser, P. L. Dufton, I. Hunter +1

High resolution optical spectra of 57 Galactic B-type supergiant stars have been analyzed to determine their rotational and macroturbulent velocities. In addition, their atmospheri…
