Red supergiant stars in binary systems II. Confirmation of B-type companions of red supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud using Hubble ultra-violet spectroscopy
L. R. Patrick, D. J. Lennon, A. Schootemeijer +5
Red supergiant stars (RSGs) represent the final evolutionary phase of the majority of massive stars and hold a unique role in testing the physics of stellar models. Eighty eight RS…
The IACOB project XIII. Helium enrichment in O-type stars as a tracer of past binary interaction
C. Martínez-Sebastián, S. Simón-Díaz, H. Jin +4
There is increasing evidence that single-star evolutionary models are inadequate to reproduce all observational properties of massive stars. Binary interaction has emerged as a key…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): a spectroscopic VLT monitoring survey of massive stars in the SMC
T. Shenar, J. Bodensteiner, H. Sana +74
Surveys in the Milky Way and Large Magellanic Cloud revealed that the majority of massive stars will interact with companions during their lives. However, knowledge of the binary p…
An absence of binary companions to Wolf-Rayet stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: implications for mass loss and black hole masses at low metallicity
A. Schootemeijer, T. Shenar, N. Langer +5
In order to predict the black hole mass distributions at high redshift, we need to understand whether very massive single stars ( M) at low metallicity lose their…
Rotational synchronisation of B-type binaries in 30 Doradus
D. J. Lennon, P. L. Dufton, J. I. Villaseñor +4
The spin evolution of stars in close binary systems can be strongly affected by tides. We investigate the rotational synchronisation of the stellar components for 69 SB1 systems an…
