The IACOB project XVIII. Prevalence of short-period binaries among Galactic helium rich O-type stars

C. Martínez-Sebastián, R. Gamen, O. G. Benvenuto +6

For decades, the origin of helium enrichment in O-type stars has remained an open question. In this study, we investigate the correlation between surface helium abundance and orbit…

The IACOB project: XVI. Surface helium abundances in Galactic O-type stars: indications for identifying binary interaction products

S. Simón-Díaz, G. Holgado, C. Martínez-Sebastián +13

The presence of massive O-type stars with surfaces enriched by CNO-cycle products has been known since the early 1980s. For many years, internal rotational mixing was assumed to be…

Multiplicity of Massive stars in the Milky Way (M3W). I. Project description, UNWIND, application to GLS 11 448, and DIB catalog

J. Maíz Apellániz, R. C. Gamen, G. Holgado +8

(ABRIDGED BUT NOT TOO FAR) Multiplicity is ubiquitous among massive stars and its understanding is constrained by the sample of well-determined orbits. The immediate goal of M3W is…

The Actinide-Boost Star LAMOST J122216.85-063345.2: A Detailed R-process Abundance Study with Gemini-S/GHOST

Miji Jeong, Young Sun Lee, Vinicius M. Placco +15

We present a detailed chemical-abundance analysis of an actinide-boost ((Th/Dy) = -0.74) star, LAMOST J122216.85-063345.2 (J1222), a very metal-poor ([Fe/H] = -2.45) halo s…

One century data of τ CMa: a (2+1)+1 system with a short-period overcontact binary and an eccentric intermediate orbit with probably no apsidal motion

Sophie Rosu, Jesús Maíz Apellániz, Luca Sciarini +4

τ Canis Majoris (CMa) is an intriguing system that has captured astronomers' attention for more than a century. The two main components Aa and Ab are two evolved O stars on a 350…

MONOS: Multiplicity Of Northern O-type Spectroscopic systems. III. New orbits and Gaia TESS analysis for 10 SB2E systems

G. Holgado, J. Maíz Apellániz, R. C. Gamen

The MONOS project (Multiplicity Of Northern O-type Spectroscopic systems) aims to characterize O-type spectroscopic binaries in the northern hemisphere (dec > -20 deg) using high-r…
