Multiplicity of Massive Stars at Low Metallicity: Early Results from the BLOeM Campaign
T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner, M. Abdul-Masih +73
Massive stars at low metallicity (Z) play a central role in shaping the high-redshift Universe, yet their multiplicity remains poorly constrained. The Binarity at Low Metallicity (…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): Projected rotational velocities
D. J. Lennon, S. R. Berlanas, A. Herrero +36
The Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM) survey is an ESO large programme designed to obtain multi-epoch spectroscopy for 929 massive stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). It w…
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…
Populations of evolved massive binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud II: Predictions from rapid binary evolution
C. Schürmann, X. -T. Xu, N. Langer +10
Massive star evolution plays a crucial role in astrophysics but bares large uncertainties. This problem becomes more severe by the majority of massive stars being born in close bin…
Populations of evolved massive binary stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud I: Predictions from detailed evolution models
X. -T. Xu, C. Schürmann, N. Langer +13
Context. The majority of massive stars are born with a close binary companion. How this affects their evolution and fate is still largely uncertain, especially at low metallicity.…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): The multiplicity properties and evolution of BAF-type supergiants
L. R. Patrick, D. J. Lennon, F. Najarro +36
Given the uncertain evolutionary status of blue supergiant stars, their multiplicity properties hold vital clues to better understand their origin and evolution. As part of The Bin…
Binarity at Low Metallicity (BLOeM) -- Multiplicity properties of Oe and Be stars
J. Bodensteiner, T. Shenar, H. Sana +40
Rapidly rotating classical OBe stars have been proposed as the products of binary interactions, and the fraction of Be stars with compact companions implies that at least some are.…
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…
An absence of binary companions to Wolf-Rayet stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: implications for mass loss and black hole masses at low metallicity
A. Schootemeijer, T. Shenar, N. Langer +5
In order to predict the black hole mass distributions at high redshift, we need to understand whether very massive single stars ( M) at low metallicity lose their…
Reverse Algols and hydrogen-rich Wolf-Rayet stars from very massive binaries
K. Sen, N. Langer, D. Pauli +6
Massive star feedback affects the evolution of galaxies, where the most massive stars may have the largest impact. The majority of massive stars are born as members of close binary…
