Investigating potential planetary nebula/cluster pairs
Christian Moni Bidin, Daniel Majaess, Charles Bonatto +10
Fundamental parameters characterizing the end-state of intermediate-mass stars may be constrained by discovering planetary nebulae (PNe) in open clusters (OCs). Cluster membership…
On the origin of variable structures in the winds of hot luminous stars
Yannick J. L. Michaux, Anthony F. G. Moffat, Andre-Nicolas Chene +1
Examination of the temporal variability properties of several strong optical recombination lines in a large sample of Galactic Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars reveals possible trends, especi…
Stellar Variability in the VVV survey
M. Catelan, D. Minniti, P. W. Lucas +34
The Vista Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) ESO Public Survey is an ongoing time-series, near-infrared (IR) survey of the Galactic bulge and an adjacent portion of the inner disk,…
Discovery of New Companions to High Proper Motion Stars from the VVV Survey
Valentin D. Ivanov, Dante Minniti, Maren Hempel +14
[abridged] The severe crowding in the direction of the inner Milky Way suggests that the census of stars within a few tens of parsecs in that direction may not be complete. We sear…
Very Massive Stars (VMS) in the Local Universe
Jorick S. Vink, Alexander Heger, Mark R. Krumholz +25
Recent studies have claimed the existence of very massive stars (VMS) up to 300 solar masses in the local Universe. As this finding may represent a paradigm shift for the canonical…
