Grids of stellar models with rotation - I. Models from 0.8 to 120 Msun at solar metallicity (Z = 0.014)
Sylvia Ekström, Cyril Georgy, Patrick Eggenberger +9
[abridged] Many topical astrophysical research areas, such as the properties of planet host stars, the nature of the progenitors of different types of supernovae and gamma ray burs…
Rotating massive stars through the ages, with applications to WR stars, Pop III stars and Gamma Ray Bursts
Andre Maeder, Georges Meynet
This article first reviews the basic physics of rotating stars and their evolution. We examine in particular the changes of the mechanical and thermal equilibrium of rotating stars…
Magnetic fields in massive stars, their winds, and their nebulae
Rolf Walder, Doris Folini, Georges Meynet
Massive stars are crucial building blocks of galaxies and the universe, as production sites of heavy elements and as stirring agents and energy providers through stellar winds and…
Blue luminous stars in nearby galaxies - UIT005: a possible link to the luminous blue variable stage
M. A. Urbaneja, A. Herrero, D. J. Lennon +2
(abridged) A detailed study of the blue supergiant UIT005 (B2-2.5Ia+) in M33 is presented. The results of our quantitative spectral analysis indicate that the star is a very lumino…
Red Supergiants, Luminous Blue Variables and Wolf-Rayet stars: the single massive star perspective
Georges Meynet, Cyril Georgy, Raphael Hirschi +4
We discuss, in the context of the single star scenario, the nature of the progenitors of Red Supergiants (RSG), of Luminous Blue Variables (LBV) and of Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars. These…
