The Tarantula Massive Binary Monitoring: III. Atmosphere analysis of double-lined spectroscopic systems
L. Mahy, H. Sana, M. Abdul-Masih +17
Accurate stellar parameters of individual objects in binary systems are essential to constrain the effects of binarity on stellar evolution. These parameters serve as a prerequisit…
The Tarantula Massive Binary Monitoring. IV. Double-lined photometric binaries
L. Mahy, L. A. Almeida, H. Sana +10
A high fraction of massive stars are found to be binaries but only a few of them are reported as photometrically variable. By studying the populations of SB2 in the 30 Doradus regi…
No signature of the orbital motion of a putative 70 solar mass black hole in LB-1
Michael Abdul-Masih, Gareth Banyard, Julia Bodensteiner +13
Liu et al. (2019) recently reported the detection of a 68 [+11/-13] solar mass (Msun) black hole (BH) paired with an 8.2 [+0.9/-1.2] Msun B-type sub-giant star in the 78.9-day spec…
Properties of OB star-black hole systems derived from detailed binary evolution models
N. Langer, C. Schürmann, K. Stoll +38
The recent gravitational wave measurements have demonstrated the existence of stellar mass black hole binaries. It is essential for our understanding of massive star evolution to i…
The young massive SMC cluster NGC 330 seen by MUSE. I. Observations and stellar content
J. Bodensteiner, H. Sana, L. Mahy +9
A majority of massive stars are part of binary systems, a large fraction of which will inevitably interact during their lives. Binary-interaction products (BiPs), i.e. stars affect…
Clues on the Origin and Evolution of Massive Contact Binaries: Atmosphere Analysis of VFTS 352
Michael Abdul-Masih, Hugues Sana, Jon Sundqvist +10
The massive O4.5 V + O5.5 V binary VFTS 352 in the Tarantula nebula is one of the shortest-period and most massive overcontact binaries known. Recent theoretical studies indicate t…
