Unusually High Metallicity Host Of The Dark LGRB 051022
J. F. Graham, A. S. Fruchter, L. J. Kewley +5
We present spectroscopy of the host of GRB 051022 with GMOS nod and shuffle on Gemini South and NIRSPEC on Keck II. We determine a metallicity for the host of log(O/H)+12 = 8.77 us…
The Physical Properties of the Red Supergiant WOH G64: The Largest Star Known?
Emily M. Levesque, Philip Massey, Bertrand Plez +1
WOH G64 is an unusual red supergiant (RSG) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), with a number of properties that set it apart from the rest of the LMC RSG population, including a t…
The Physical Properties of Red Supergiants: Comparing Theory and Observations
Philip Massey, Emily M. Levesque, Bertrand Plez +1
Red supergiants (RSGs) are an evolved stage in the life of intermediate massive stars (than than 25 solar masses). For many years, their location in the H-R diagram was at variance…
The Coolest Stars in the Clouds: Unusual Red Supergiants in the Magellanic Clouds
Emily M. Levesque, Philip Massey, K. A. G. Olsen +1
Red supergiants (RSGs) are a He-burning phase in the evolution of moderately high mass stars (10-25 solar masses). The evolution of these stars, particularly at low metallicities,…
Physical Properties of Red Supergiants
Philip Massey, Bertrand Plez, Emily M. Levesque +3
Red supergiants (RSGs) are an evolved stage in the life of intermediate massive stars (<25Mo). For many years their location in the H-R diagram was at variance with the evolutionar…
The Host Galaxy of GRB 060505: Host ISM Properties
Emily M. Levesque, Lisa J. Kewley
We investigate the ISM environment of GRB 060505. Using optical emission-line diagnostic ratios, we compare the ISM properties of the GRB 060505 host region with the hosts of unamb…
