Mapping Wolf-Rayet winds with spectro-interferometry I. Detection of multiple co-rotating interaction regions in WR 6
K. Deshmukh, A. -N. Chené, A. J. Frost +8
WR 6 is the prototype for periodic variability due to large-scale wind structures in Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars, showing a consistent periodicity of 3.76 d in photometry, spectroscopy,…
The highly magnetic Wolf-Rayet binary HD 45166 resolved with VLTI/GRAVITY
K. Deshmukh, T. Shenar, A. Mérand +9
HD 45166 was recently reported to be a long-period binary comprising a B7V star and a highly magnetic (kG) hot Wolf-Rayet-like component, dubbed a…
The YMDB catalog: Young massive detached binaries for the determination of high-precision absolute stellar parameters
Pablo Martín-Ravelo, Roberto Gamen, Julia I. Arias +2
Massive stars play a crucial role in the cosmic dynamics and chemical evolution of galaxies, however our understanding of their evolution and properties remains limited. An accurat…
Using CHIRON Spectroscopy to Test the Hypothesis of a Precessing Orbit for the WN4 star EZ CMa
Krister DG. Barclay, Sophie Rosu, Noel D. Richardson +4
The bright WN4 star EZ CMa exhibits a 3.77 day periodicity in photometry, spectroscopy, and polarimetry but the variations in the measurements are not strictly phase-locked, exhibi…
Modeling Variable Linear Polarization Produced by Co-Rotating Interaction Regions (CIRs) Across Optical Recombination Lines of Wolf-Rayet Stars
R Ignace, J E Bjorkman, A-N Chene +5
Massive star winds are structured both stochastically ("clumps") and often coherently (Co-rotation Interaction Regions, or CIRs). Evidence for CIRs threading the winds of Wolf-Raye…
WR 63: A multiple system (O+O)+WR ?
A. -N. Chené, L. Mahy, E. Gosset +3
The spectrum of the Wolf-Rayet (WR) star WR 63 contains spectral lines of two different O stars that show regular radial velocity (RV) variations with amplitudes of ~160 and ~225 k…
