Extreme mass ratios and fast rotation in three massive binaries
Yael Naze, Nikolay Britavskiy, Gregor Rauw +2
The origin of rapid rotation in massive stars remains debated, although binary interactions are now often advocated as a cause. However, the broad and shallow lines in the spectra…
A calibration point for stellar evolution from massive star asteroseismology
Siemen Burssens, Dominic M. Bowman, Mathias Michielsen +10
Massive stars are progenitors of supernovae, neutron stars and black holes. During the hydrogen-core burning phase their convective cores are the prime drivers of their evolution,…
The IACOB project VIII. Searching for empirical signatures of binarity in fast-rotating O-type stars
N. Britavskiy, S. Simón-Díaz, G. Holgado +6
The empirical distribution of projected rotational velocities (vsini) in massive O-type stars is characterized by a dominant slow velocity component and a tail of fast rotators. Bi…
The wide-field, multiplexed, spectroscopic facility WEAVE: Survey design, overview, and simulated implementation
Shoko Jin, Scott C. Trager, Gavin B. Dalton +212
WEAVE, the new wide-field, massively multiplexed spectroscopic survey facility for the William Herschel Telescope, will see first light in late 2022. WEAVE comprises a new 2-degree…
The IACOB project. VII. The rotational properties of Galactic massive O-type stars revisited
G. Holgado, S. Simón-Díaz, A. Herrero +1
Stellar rotation is of key importance for the formation process, evolution, and final fate of massive stars. In this paper we review results from the study of the spin rate propert…
The Gaia-ESO Survey: The analysis of the hot-star spectra
R. Blomme, S. Daflon, M. Gebran +44
The Gaia-ESO Survey (GES) is a large public spectroscopic survey that has collected, over a period of 6 years, spectra of ~ 10^5 stars. This survey provides not only the reduced sp…
