Accurate distances to nearby massive stars with the new reduction of the Hipparcos raw data

J. Maíz Apellániz, E. J. Alfaro, A. Sota

We use the new reduction of the Hipparcos data (van Leeuwen 2007) and a self-consistent distance determination technique for Lutz-Kelker limited samples to obtain distances to the…

The Galactic O Star Catalog V.2.0

A. Sota, J. Maíz Apellániz, Nolan R. Walborn +1

The Galactic O star catalog (GOS) is an ambitious project to provide as much information regarding these types of objects as possible. The first version of the catalog (GOS v1) inc…

Towards using optical/NIR photometry to measure the temperature of O stars

J. Maíz Apellániz, A. Sota

It has been traditionally stated that it is not possible to use optical/NIR photometry to measure the temperatures of O stars. In this contribution we describe the steps required t…

The stellar upper mass limit in the solar neighborhood

J. Maíz Apellániz, Nolan R. Walborn, N. I. Morrell +4

We are using HST GO programs 10205, 10602, and 10898 to test the stellar upper mass limit in the solar vicinity by attempting to detect optical close companions, thus lowering the…

IMF biases and how to correct them

J. Maíz Apellániz, L. Úbeda, N. R. Walborn +1

We discuss possible sources of biases in the determination of the initial mass function (IMF) introduced by the binning of the data, the uncertainty in the determinations of masses…
