The clumpy absorber in the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1
V. Grinberg, N. Hell, I. El Mellah +13
Bright and eclipsing, the high-mass X-ray binary Vela X-1 offers a unique opportunity to study accretion onto a neutron star from clumpy winds of O/B stars and to disentangle the c…
On the binary nature of massive blue hypergiants: high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy suggests that Cyg OB2 12 is a colliding wind binary
L. M. Oskinova, D. P. Huenemoerder, W. -R. Hamann +4
The blue hypergiant Cyg OB2-12 (B3Ia+) is a representative member of the class of very massive stars in a poorly understood evolutionary stage. We obtained its high-resolution X-ra…
X-ray diagnostics of massive star winds
L. M. Oskinova, R. Ignace, D. P. Huenemoerder
Observations with powerful X-ray telescopes, such as XMM-Newton and Chandra, significantly advance our understanding of massive stars. Nearly all early-type stars are X-ray sources…
