Search for the magnetic field of the O7.5 III star xi Persei
H. F. Henrichs, R. S. Schnerr, J. A. de Jong +3
Cyclical wind variability is an ubiquitous but as yet unexplained feature among OB stars. The O7.5 III(n)((f)) star xi Persei is the brightest representative of this class on the N…
Probing the Early Evolution of Young High-Mass Stars
E. Puga, A. Bik, L. B. M. F. Waters +22
Near-infrared imaging surveys of high-mass star-forming regions reveal an amazingly complex interplay between star formation and the environment (Churchwell et al. 2006; Alvarez et…
X-shooter: a medium-resolution, wide-band spectrograph for the VLT
L. Kaper, S. D'Odorico, F. Hammer +2
X-shooter is the first second-generation instrument for the ESO Very Large Telescope and will be installed in 2008. It is intended to become the most powerful optical & near-infrar…
Dynamical Masses for the Large Magellanic Cloud Massive Binary System [L72] LH 54-425
S. J. Williams, D. R. Gies, T. J. Henry +8
We present results from an optical spectroscopic investigation of the massive binary system [L72] LH~54-425 in the LH 54 OB association in the Large Magellanic Cloud. We revise the…
Stellar Wind Variations During the X-ray High and Low States of Cygnus X-1
D. R. Gies, C. T. Bolton, R. M. Blake +10
We present results from Hubble Space Telescope UV spectroscopy of the massive X-ray binary system, HD226868 = Cyg X-1. The spectra were obtained at both orbital conjunction phases…
An infrared view of (candidate accretion) disks around massive young stars
A. Bik, A. Lenorzer, W-. F. Thi +4
Near-infrared surveys of high-mass star-forming regions start to shed light onto their stellar content. A particular class of objects found in these regions, the so-called massive…
