Short-term spectroscopic variability of Plaskett's star

Matthieu Palate, Gregor Rauw

Context. Plaskett's star (HD47129) is a very massive O-star binary in a post Roche-lobe overflow stage. CoRoT observations of this system revealed photometric variability with a nu…

WR 138: new results from X-ray and optical spectroscopy

M. Palate, G. Rauw, M. De Becker +2

Context. Massive-binary evolution models predict that some systems will go through an evolutionary phase where the original primary has become a supernova and left a compact object…

Spectral modelling of massive binary systems

Matthieu Palate, Gregor Rauw, Gloria Koenigsberger +1

Aims: We simulate the spectra of massive binaries at different phases of the orbital cycle, accounting for the gravitational influence of the companion star on the shape and physic…

The nature of the high Galactic latitude O-star HD93521: new results from X-ray and optical spectroscopy

Gregor Rauw, Thierry Morel, Matthieu Palate

Owing to its unusual location and its isolation, the nature of the high Galactic latitude O9.5Vp object HD93521 is still uncertain. We have collected X-ray and optical observations…

Spectral modeling of circular massive binary systems: Towards an understanding of the Struve--Sahade effect?

Matthieu Palate, Gregor Rauw

Context: Some secondary effects are known to introduce variations in spectra of massive binaries. These phenomena (such as the Struve--Sahade effect, difficulties to determine prop…
