First spectroscopic identification of the main sequence in Westerlund 1
R. Castellanos, F. Najarro, M. Garcia +8
Being the most massive known young stellar cluster in the Milky Way, Westerlund 1 (Wd1) constitutes an ideal benchmark for understanding the evolution of massive stars. However, th…
EWOCS-V: Is Wd1-72 a recent post-interaction WR+O binary?
C. J. K. Larkin, J. Mackey, H. Jin +14
The evolutionary origin of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars at Solar metallicity is unclear. Single-star evolution from massive O stars, possibly via a Luminous Blue Variable phase, is challe…
EWOCS-IV: 1Ms ACIS Chandra observation of the supergiant B[e] star Wd1-9
K. Anastasopoulou, M. G. Guarcello, J. J. Drake +21
Supergiant B[e] (sgB[e]) stars are exceptionally rare objects, with only a handful of confirmed examples in the Milky Way. The evolutionary pathways leading to the sgB[e] phase rem…
EWOCS-III: JWST observations of the supermassive star cluster Westerlund 1
M. G. Guarcello, V. Almendros-Abad, J. B. Lovell +29
The typically large distances, extinction, and crowding of Galactic supermassive star clusters have so far hampered the identification of their very low mass members, required to e…
EWOCS-II: X-ray properties of the Wolf-Rayet stars in the young Galactic super star cluster Westerlund 1
K. Anastasopoulou, M. G. Guarcello, E. Flaccomio +20
We present the most comprehensive and deepest X-ray study to date of the properties of the richest Wolf-Rayet (WR) population observed in a single stellar cluster, Westerlund 1 (Wd…
EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey
M. G. Guarcello, E. Flaccomio, J. F. Albacete-Colombo +48
Context. With a mass exceeding several 10^4 solar masses and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters represent the most massive star-forming…
