B fields in OB stars (BOB): on the detection of weak magnetic fields in the two early B-type stars beta CMa and epsilon CMa

L. Fossati, N. Castro, T. Morel +15

Within the context of the "B fields in OB stars (BOB)" collaboration, we used the HARPSpol spectropolarimeter to observe the early B-type stars beta CMa (HD44743; B1 II/III) and ep…

The properties of ten O-type stars in the low-metallicity galaxies IC 1613, WLM and NGC 3109

F. Tramper, H. Sana, A. de Koter +2

Massive stars likely played an important role in the reionization of the Universe, and the formation of the first black holes. Massive stars in low-metallicity environments in the…

Southern Massive Stars at High Angular Resolution: Observational Campaign and Companion Detection

H. Sana, J. -B. Le Bouquin, S. Lacour +12

Multiplicity is one of the most fundamental observable properties of massive O-type stars and offers a promising way to discriminate between massive star formation theories. Nevert…

Rotational velocities of single and binary O-type stars in the Tarantula Nebula

O. H. Ramírez-Agudelo, H. Sana, A. de Koter +15

Rotation is a key parameter in the evolution of massive stars, affecting their evolution, chemical yields, ionizing photon budget, and final fate. We determined the projected rotat…

The wind of W Hya as seen by Herschel. II. The molecular envelope of W Hya

T. Khouri, A. de Koter, L. Decin +18

The evolution of low- and intermediate-mass stars on the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) is mainly controlled by the rate at which these stars lose mass in a stellar wind. Understand…

BONNSAI: a Bayesian tool for comparing stars with stellar evolution models

Fabian R. N. Schneider, Norbert Langer, Alex de Koter +3

Powerful telescopes equipped with multi-fibre or integral field spectrographs combined with detailed models of stellar atmospheres and automated fitting techniques allow for the an…
