The IACOB project: XVII. Nitrogen abundances in Galactic O-type stars: further hints for separating binary-interaction products from effectively single stars
C. Martínez-Sebastián, G. Holgado, S. Simón-Díaz +2
Context. Growing evidence is revealing the crucial role of binarity in massive star evolution. This affects evolution models and demands a refinement of the available observational…

Toward early-type eclipsing binaries as extragalactic milestones: IV. Physical properties of three detached O/B-type systems in the LMC
Mónica Taormina, G. Pietrzyński, R. -P. Kudritzki +10
We present a complete set of physical parameters for three early-type eclipsing binary systems in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC): OGLE LMC-ECL-17660, OGLE LMC-ECL-18794, and HV 2…

The IACOB project XIII. Helium enrichment in O-type stars as a tracer of past binary interaction
C. Martínez-Sebastián, S. Simón-Díaz, H. Jin +4
There is increasing evidence that single-star evolutionary models are inadequate to reproduce all observational properties of massive stars. Binary interaction has emerged as a key…
