New constraints on the binary system HD 327083 and its gaseous and dusty environments

L. Cidale, P. Marchiano, M. Kraus +11

Binary systems with circumbinary molecular and dust rings are of great interest because they provide insights into the dynamics and evolution of stellar systems and the chemistry o…

Near-infrared characterization of evolved massive stars in M31 and M33

Michaela Kraus, Maria Laura Arias, Michalis Kourniotis +3

The upper region of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is populated by massive stars in a diversity of evolutionary stages, and the classification of these stars is often based on obs…

BCD spectrophotometry for massive stars in transition phases

Y. J. Aidelman, M. Borges Fernandes, L. S. Cidale +7

Context. Stars in transition phases, like those showing the B[e] phenomenon and luminous blue variables (LBVs), undergo strong, often irregular mass ejection events. The prediction…

Revisiting the evolved hypergiants in the Magellanic Clouds

Michalis Kourniotis, Michaela Kraus, Olga Maryeva +2

The massive stars that survive the phase of red supergiants (RSGs) spend the rest of their life in extremity. Their unstable atmospheres facilitate the formation and episodic eject…

The study of unclassified B[e] stars and candidates in the Galaxy and Magellanic Clouds

C. A. H. Condori, M. Borges Fernandes, M. Kraus +2

We investigated 12 unclassified B[e] stars or candidates, 8 from the Galaxy, 2 from the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and 2 from the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). Based on the analy…

Discovery of SiO band emission from Galactic B[e] supergiants

Michaela Kraus, Mary Oksala, Lydia Cidale +3

B[e] supergiants (B[e]SGs) are evolved massive stars in a short-lived transition phase. During this phase, these objects eject large amounts of material, which accumulates in a cir…
