The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. XIII: On the nature of O Vz stars in 30 Doradus
C. Sabín-Sanjulián, S. Simón-Díaz, A. Herrero +13
AIMS. We test the hypothesis of O Vz stars (characterized by having HeII4686 stronger in absorption than other He lines in their blue-violet spectra) being at a younger evolutionar…
Spectroscopic and physical parameters of Galactic O-type stars. II. Observational constraints on projected rotational and extra broadening velocities as a function of fundamental parameters and stellar evolution
N. Markova, J. Puls, S. Simón-Díaz +3
Rotation is of key importance for the evolution of hot massive stars, however, the rotational velocities of these stars are difficult to determine. Based on our own data for 31 Gal…
The rotation rates of massive stars: How slow are the slow ones?
J. O. Sundqvist, S. Simon-Diaz, J. Puls +1
Context: Rotation plays a key role in the life cycles of stars with masses above 8 Msun. Hence, accurate knowledge of the rotation rates of such massive stars is critical for under…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey - XI. A census of the hot luminous stars and their feedback in 30 Doradus
E. I. Doran, P. A. Crowther, A. de Koter +16
We compile the first comprehensive census of hot luminous stars in the 30 Doradus (30 Dor) star forming region of the LMC. The census extends to a radius of 10arcmin (150pc) from t…
