The dramatic transition of the extreme Red Supergiant WOH G64 to a Yellow Hypergiant
G. Munoz-Sanchez, M. Kalitsounaki, S. de Wit +8
Red Supergiants (RSGs) are cool, evolved massive stars in their final evolutionary stage before exploding as a supernova. However, the evolution and fate of the most luminous RSGs…
The effect of mass loss in models of red supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud
E. Zapartas, S. de Wit, K. Antoniadis +16
The rate and mechanism of mass loss of red supergiants (RSGs) remain poorly understood, especially at low metallicities. Motivated by the new empirical prescription by Yang et al.…
Episodic mass loss in the very luminous red supergiant [W60] B90 in the Large Magellanic Cloud
G. Munoz-Sanchez, S. de Wit, A. Z. Bonanos +6
This study delves into [W60] B90, one of the most luminous and extreme Red Supergiants (RSGs) in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), aiming to search for evidence of episodic mass lo…
Investigating episodic mass loss in evolved massive stars: II. Physical properties of red supergiants at subsolar metallicity
S. de Wit, A. Z. Bonanos, K. Antoniadis +8
Mass loss during the red supergiant (RSG) phase plays a crucial role in the evolution of an intermediate massive star, however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. We aim to…
Establishing a mass-loss rate relation for red supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud
K. Antoniadis, A. Z. Bonanos, S. de Wit +3
The high mass-loss rates of red supergiants (RSGs) drastically affect their evolution and final fate, but their mass-loss mechanism remains poorly understood. Various empirical pre…
