A New Feature in the Spectrum of the Superluminous LMC Supergiant HDE 269896

Mariela A. Corti, Nolan R. Walborn, Christopher J. Evans

We have found strong selective emission of the N II 5000A complex in the spectrum of the LMC hypergiant HDE 269896, ON9.7 Ia. Since this object also has anomalously strong He I…

The mysterious Of?p class and the magnetic O-star Theta Ori C

Yael Naze, Nolan R. Walborn, Fabrice Martins

In recent years, the stars of the Of?p category have revealed a wealth of peculiar phenomena: varying line profiles, photometric changes, and X-ray overluminosity are only a few of…

Towards an understanding of the Of?p star HD 191612: optical spectroscopy

Ian D. Howarth, Nolan R. Walborn, Danny J. Lennon +17

We present extensive optical spectroscopy of the early-type magnetic star HD 191612 (O6.5f?pe-O8fp). The Balmer and HeI lines show strongly variable emission which is highly reprod…
