Unraveling the birthplaces of NGC2070's massive stars, tracked with MUSE and revealed with JWST
N. Castro
The formation of massive O-type stars cannot be simply explained as a scaled-up version of the accretion mechanisms observed in lower-mass stars. Understanding these processes nece…
SALT spectroscopy of the HMXB associated with the LMC supernova remnant MCSNR\,J05136724
Vasilii Gvaramadze, Alexei Kniazev, Norberto Castro +1
We report the results of optical échelle spectroscopy with the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) of the mass donor star BSDL\,923 in the neutron star (NS) high-mass X-ray bin…
Dynamical vs Supernova Acceleration of OB Stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud
M. S. Oey, J. Dorigo Jones, G. D. Phillips +3
We use the RIOTS4 sample of SMC field OB stars to determine the origin of massive runaways in this low-metallicity galaxy using Gaia proper motions, together with stellar masses ob…
Strong Variability in AzV 493, an Extreme Oe-Type Star in the SMC
M. S. Oey, N. Castro, M. Renzo +11
We present 18 years of OGLE photometry together with spectra obtained over 12 years, revealing that the early Oe star AzV 493 shows strong photometric (Delta I < 1.2 mag) and spect…
MUSE crowded field 3D spectroscopy in NGC 300 : IV. Planetary nebula luminosity function
Azlizan A. Soemitro, Martin M. Roth, Peter M. Weilbacher +5
We perform a deep survey of planetary nebulae (PNe) in the spiral galaxy NGC 300 to construct its planetary nebula luminosity function (PNLF). We aim to derive the distance using t…
MUSE crowded field 3D spectroscopy in NGC 300 III. Characterizing extremely faint HII regions and diffuse ionized gas
Genoveva Micheva, Martin M. Roth, Peter M. Weilbacher +7
There are known differences between the physical properties of HII and diffuse ionized gas (DIG), but most of the studied regions in the literature are relatively bright. We compil…
