Ultraviolet Spectropolarimetry with Polstar: Massive Star Binary Colliding Winds
Nicole St-Louis, Kenneth Gayley, Desmond John Hillier +13
As sources of chemical enrichment, ionizing radiation and energetic feedback, massive stars drive the ecology of their host galaxies despite their relative rarity, additionally to…
Ultraviolet Spectropolarimetry:Conservative and Nonconservative Mass Transfer in OB Interacting Binaries
Geraldine J. Peters, Ken Gayley, Richard Ignace +11
One objective of the Polstar spectropolarimetry mission is to characterize the degree of nonconservative mass transfer that occurs at various stages of binary evolution, from the i…
Ultraviolet Spectropolarimetry: on the origin of rapidly rotating B stars
C. E. Jones, J. Labadie-Bartz, D. V. Cotton +12
UV spectroscopy and spectropolarimetry hold the key to understanding certain aspects of massive stars that are largely inaccessible with optical or longer wavelength observations.…
The Detection and Characterization of Be+sdO Binaries from HST/STIS FUV Spectroscopy
Luqian Wang, Douglas R. Gies, Geraldine J. Peters +4
The B-emission line stars are rapid rotators that were probably spun up by mass and angular momentum accretion through mass transfer in an interacting binary. Mass transfer will st…
