The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XXVII. Physical parameters of B-type main-sequence binary systems in the Tarantula nebula

R. Garland, P. L. Dufton, C. J. Evans +14

A spectroscopic analysis has been undertaken for the B-type multiple systems (excluding those with supergiant primaries) in the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS). Projected rotati…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XXII. Multiplicity properties of the B-type stars

P. R. Dunstall, P. L. Dufton, H. Sana +7

We investigate the multiplicity properties of 408 B-type stars observed in the 30 Doradus region of the Large Magellanic Cloud with multi-epoch spectroscopy from the VLT-FLAMES Tar…

Surface abundances of ON stars

F. Martins, S. Simon-Diaz, A. Palacios +5

Massive stars burn hydrogen through the CNO cycle during most of their evolution. When mixing is efficient, or when mass transfer in binary systems happens, chemically processed ma…

Constraining the energy budget of GRB 080721

R. L. C. Starling, E. Rol, A. J. van der Horst +17

We follow the bright, highly energetic afterglow of Swift-discovered GRB 080721 at z=2.591 out to 36 days or 3e6 s since the trigger in the optical and X-ray bands. We do not detec…
