The Beauty of k2: Probing Stellar Interiors Using Apsidal Motion. I. The Benchmark Massive Binary HD 152248
Sophie Rosu, Luca Sciarini, Sylvia Ekström +4
Over the last decades, several independent studies have shown the need for large convective boundary mixing (CBM) and convective core sizes in massive stars to reproduce a variety…
Dynamically consistent analysis of Galactic WN4b stars
Roel R. Lefever, Andreas A. C. Sander, Matheus Bernini-Peron +6
Many Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars have optically thick winds that cloak the hydrostatic layers of the underlying star. In these cases, traditional spectral analysis methods are plagued by…
Can Wolf-Rayet stars be the missing ingredient to explain high-z He II ionizing radiation?
G. González-Torà, A. A. C. Sander, E. Egorova +7
Classical Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars are hot, massive stars with depleted hydrogen. At low metallicities (Z), WN3-type WR stars have relatively thin winds and are major sources of ioniz…
SDSS-V LVM: Detectability of Wolf-Rayet stars and their He II ionizing flux in low-metallicity environments I. The weak-lined, early-type WN3 stars in the SMC
G. González-Torà, A. A. C. Sander, E. Egorova +18
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is the nearest low-metallicity dwarf galaxy. Its proximity and low reddening has enabled us to detect its Wolf-Rayet (WR) star population with 12 k…
A high fraction of close massive binary stars at low metallicity
H. Sana, T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner +74
At high metallicity, a majority of massive stars have at least one close stellar companion. The evolution of such binaries is subject to strong interaction processes, heavily impac…
Discovery of a new transitional type of evolved massive stars with hard ionizing flux
Andreas A. C. Sander, Roel R. Lefever, Joris Josiek +12
Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars are the evolved descendants of the most massive stars and show emission-line dominated spectra formed in their powerful stellar winds. Marking the final evolu…
Magneto-photoelectric effect in graphene via tailored potential landscapes
Joris Josiek, Friedemann Queisser, Stephan Winnerl +1
We consider the propagation of charge carriers in planar graphene under the combined influence of a constant transversal magnetic field and an in-plane varying electric potenti…
Improving 1D stellar atmosphere models with insights from multi-dimensional simulations II. 1D versus 3D hydrodynamically consistent model comparison for WR stars
G. González-Torà, A. A. C. Sander, N. Moens +8
Classical Wolf-Rayet (cWR) stars are evolved massive stars that have lost most of their H envelope and exhibit dense, extended atmospheres with strong, line-driven winds. Accuratel…
Exploring the connection between atmosphere models and evolution models of very massive stars
Joris Josiek, Andreas A. C. Sander, Matheus Bernini-Peron +6
Very massive stars (VMS) dominate the light of young stellar populations and are sources of intense stellar feedback. Their evolution is mainly driven by strong wind mass loss, yet…
New empirical mass-loss recipe for UV radiation line-driven winds of hot stars across various metallicities
D. Pauli, L. M. Oskinova, W. -R. Hamann +7
The winds of massive stars remove a significant fraction of their mass, strongly impacting their evolution. As a star evolves, the rate at which it loses mass changes. In stellar e…
Resolving the baryon assymmetry with RATS
J. Josiek, M. Bernini-Peron, G. González-Torà +2
Current leading theories of physics such as the Big Bang, the standard model of particle physics, and general relativity suggest that the universe should contain an equal amount of…
Extremely iron-poor O-type stars in the Magellanic Bridge
E. C. Schösser, V. Ramachandran, A. A. C. Sander +7
To study stars analogous to those in the early Universe with redshift z > 3, we need to probe environments with low metallicities. Until recently, massive O-type stars with metalli…
Improving 1D stellar atmosphere models with insights from multi-dimensional simulations I. 1D vs 2D stratifications and spectral comparison for O stars
G. González-Torà, A. A. C. Sander, J. O. Sundqvist +7
We compare current 1D and multi-dimensional atmosphere modelling approaches for massive stars to understand their strengths and shortcomings. We calculate averaged stratifications…
X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity VII. Stellar and wind properties of B supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud
M. Bernini-Peron, A. A. C. Sander, V. Ramachandran +22
Context. B supergiants (BSGs) represent an important connection between the main sequence and more extreme evolutionary stages of massive stars. Additionally, lying toward the cool…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): a spectroscopic VLT monitoring survey of massive stars in the SMC
T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner, H. Sana +74
Surveys in the Milky Way and Large Magellanic Cloud revealed that the majority of massive stars will interact with companions during their lives. However, knowledge of the binary p…
Impact of main-sequence mass loss on the appearance, structure and evolution of Wolf-Rayet stars
Joris Josiek, Sylvia Ekström, Andreas A. C. Sander
Stellar winds are one of the most important drivers of massive star evolution and a vital source of chemical, mechanical, and radiative feedback. Despite its significance, mass los…
