Evidence of triggered star formation in the Pillars of Creation from JWST observations
Jing Wen, Bingqiu Chen, Jian Gao +3
Stars form in molecular clouds under the influence of their local environments, yet the role of massive stellar feedback in either triggering or suppressing star formation remains…
Extinction Distributions in Nearby Star-resolved Galaxies. I. M31
Yuxi Wang, Jian Gao, Yi Ren +1
An extinction distribution of the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is constructed with member stars as tracers by fitting multiband photometric data from UKIRT/WFCAM, PS1, and Gaia DR3. The…
New Red Supergiant Stars in the other side of our Galaxy
Lin Zhang, Bingqiu Chen, Yi Ren +3
Red supergiant stars (RSGs) are massive stars in a late stage of evolution, crucial for understanding stellar life cycles and Galactic structure. However, RSGs on the far side of o…
Probing the distinct extinction law of the Pillars of Creation in M16 with JWST
Jun Li, Bingqiu Chen, Biwei Jiang +2
Investigating the extinction law in regions of high dust extinction, such as the Pillars of Creation within the M16 region, is crucial for understanding the densest parts of the in…
Evolved Massive Stars at Low-metallicity VII. the Lower Mass Limit of Red Supergiant Population in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Ming Yang, Bo Zhang, Biwei Jiang +8
The precise definition of the lower mass limit of red supergiant stars (RSGs) is an open question in astrophysics and does not attract too much attention. Here we assemble a spectr…
Evolved Massive Stars at Low-metallicity VI. Mass-Loss Rate of Red Supergiant Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Jing Wen, Jian Gao, Ming Yang +4
Mass loss is a crucial process that affects the observational properties, evolution path and fate of highly evolved stars. However, the mechanism of mass loss is still unclear, and…
Evolved Massive Stars at Low-metallicity II. Red Supergiant Stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud
Ming Yang, Alceste Z. Bonanos, Bi-Wei Jiang +9
We present the most comprehensive RSG sample for the SMC up to now, including 1,239 RSG candidates. The initial sample is derived based on a source catalog for the SMC with conserv…
Red supergiant stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud. II. Infrared properties and mid-infrared variability
Ming Yang, Alceste Z. Bonanos, Bi-Wei Jiang +7
The characteristics of IR properties and MIR variability of RSGs in the LMC are analyzed based on 12 bands of NIR to MIR co-added data from 2MASS, Spitzer and WISE, and 6.6 y…
Red Supergiant Stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud: I. The Period-Luminosity Relation
Ming Yang, B. W. Jiang
From previous samples of Red Supergiants (RSGs) by various groups, 191 objects are assembled to compose a large sample of RSG candidates in LMC. For 189 of them, the identity as a…
