Mid-Infrared diagnostics of metal-rich HII regions from VLT and Spitzer Spectroscopy of Young Massive Stars in W31
JP Furness, PA Crowther, PW Morris +4
We present near-IR VLT/ISAAC and mid-IR Spitzer/IRS spectroscopy of the young massive cluster in the W31 star-forming region. H-band spectroscopy provides refined classifications f…
Contamination of short GRBs by giant magnetar flares: Significance of downward revision in distance to SGR 1806-20
Paul A Crowther, Joanne L Bibby, James P Furness +1
We highlight how the downward revision in the distance to the star cluster associated with SGR 1806-20 by Bibby et al. reconciles the apparent low contamination of BATSE short GRBs…
On the central ionizing star of G23.96+0.15 and near-IR spectral classification of O stars
Paul A Crowther, James P Furness
Aims: A near-infrared study of the main ionizing star of the ultracompact HII region G23.96+0.15 (IRAS 18317-0757) is presented, along with a re-evaluation of the distance to this…
A downward revision to the distance of the 1806-20 cluster and associated magnetar from Gemini near-Infrared spectroscopy
J. L. Bibby, P. A. Crowther, J. P. Furness +1
We present H- and K-band spectroscopy of OB and Wolf-Rayet (WR) members of the Milky Way cluster 1806-20 (G10.0-0.3), to obtain a revised cluster distance of relevance to the 2004…
