The symphony of pulsations and binarity among massive stars using HERMES spectroscopy and TESS photometry
K. Thomson-Paressant, D. M. Bowman, F. Nardini +16
A wide range of variability mechanisms exist among intermediate mass and massive stars, which are not yet fully understood. Using complementary data sources for a large population…
SpecFANN: Spectral Fitting via Artificial Neural Networks I. A deep learning based fastwind emulator and fitting suite
M. Abdul-Masih, C. Hawcroft, T. Lechien +14
The importance of massive stars cannot be overstated: they are powerful probes of the early universe, play a vital role in the chemical and mechanical evolution of their host envir…
Binarity at LOw Metallicity (BLOeM): massive star variability revealed using a novel software tool for point-spread function fitting of TESS images
Pieterjan J. Van Daele, Dominic M. Bowman, Roey Ovadia +12
Massive stars, the progenitors of neutron stars and black holes, play a crucial role in shaping the chemical and radiative properties of entire galaxies through their winds and exp…
Large-scale variability in macroturbulence driven by pulsations in the rapidly rotating massive star Zeta Oph from high-cadence ESPRESSO spectroscopy and TESS photometry
A. J. Kalita, D. M. Bowman, M. Abdul-Masih +1
Despite their importance, the dynamical properties of massive stars remain poorly understood. Rotation is a key driver of internal mixing and angular momentum transport, significan…
