X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity. IV. Spectral analysis methods and exemplary results for O stars

A. A. C. Sander, J. -C. Bouret, M. Bernini-Peron +26

CONTEXT: The spectral analysis of hot, massive stars is a fundamental astrophysical method to obtain their intrinsic properties and their feedback. Quantitative spectroscopy for ho…

X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity VII. Stellar and wind properties of B supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud

M. Bernini-Peron, A. A. C. Sander, V. Ramachandran +22

Context. B supergiants (BSGs) represent an important connection between the main sequence and more extreme evolutionary stages of massive stars. Additionally, lying toward the cool…

A magnetic massive star has experienced a stellar merger

A. J. Frost, H. Sana, L. Mahy +13

Massive stars (those larger than 8 solar masses at formation) have radiative envelopes that cannot sustain a dynamo, the mechanism that produces magnetic fields in lower-mass stars…

Constraints on the multiplicity of the most massive stars known: R136 a1, a2, a3, and c

T. Shenar, H. Sana, P. A. Crowther +5

The most massive stars known to date are R 136 a1, a2, a3, and c within the central cluster R 136a of the Tarantula nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), with reported masses…

A closer look at the binary content of NGC 1850

S. Saracino, S. Kamann, N. Bastian +7

Studies of young clusters have shown that a large fraction of O-/early B-type stars are in binary systems, where the binary fraction increases with mass. These massive stars are pr…

MWC 656 is unlikely to contain a black hole

S. Janssens, T. Shenar, N. Degenaar +4

Context. MWC 656 was reported as the first known Be star with a black-hole (BH) companion in a 60 d period. The mass of the proposed BH companion is estimated to be between 4 - 7 M…
