The spectroscopic binary fraction of the young stellar cluster M17

M. C. Ramírez-Tannus, A. R. Derkink, F. Backs +5

Significant progress has been made toward understanding the formation of massive (M) binaries in close orbits. For example, the detection of a very low velocity d…

Hubble Tarantula Treasury Project. III. Photometric Catalog and Resulting Constraints on the Progression of Star Formation in the 30 Doradus Region

E. Sabbi, D. J. Lennon, J. Anderson +21

We present and describe the astro-photometric catalog of more than 800,000 sources found in the Hubble Tarantula Treasury Project (HTTP). HTTP is a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Tre…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XVI. The optical+NIR extinction laws in 30 Doradus and the photometric determination of the effective temperatures of OB stars

J. Maíz Apellániz, C. J. Evans, R. H. Barbá +11

Context: The commonly used extinction laws of Cardelli et al. (1989) have limitations that, among other issues, hamper the determination of the effective temperatures of O and earl…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. IX. The interstellar medium seen through Diffuse Interstellar Bands and neutral sodium

Jacco Th. van Loon, Mandy Bailey, Benjamin L. Tatton +11

The Tarantula Nebula (30 Dor) is a spectacular star-forming region in the Large Magellanic Cloud, seen through gas in the Galactic Disc and Halo. Diffuse Interstellar Bands offer a…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. VII. A low velocity dispersion for the young massive cluster R136

V. Hénault-Brunet, C. J. Evans, H. Sana +8

Detailed studies of resolved young massive star clusters are necessary to determine their dynamical state and evaluate the importance of gas expulsion and early cluster evolution.…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey VI: Evidence for rotation of the young massive cluster R136

V. Hénault-Brunet, M. Gieles, C. J. Evans +8

Although it has important ramifications for both the formation of star clusters and their subsequent dynamical evolution, rotation remains a largely unexplored characteristic of yo…
