Very massive stars and Nitrogen emitting galaxies
Jorick S. Vink
Recent studies of high-redshift galaxies with James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), such as GN-z11 at show unexpectedly significant amounts of nitrogen (N) in their spectra.…
On the Red Supergiant Wind Kink. A Universal mass-loss concept for massive stars
Jorick S. Vink, Gautham N. Sabhahit
Red supergiants (RSG) are key objects for the evolution of massive stars and their endpoints, but uncertainties in their underlying mass-loss mechanism have thus far prevented an a…
The Structure and Evolution of Stars: Introductory Remarks
Dominic M. Bowman, Jennifer van Saders, Jorick S. Vink
In this introductory chapter of the Special Issue entitled `The Structure and Evolution of Stars', we highlight the recent major progress made in our understanding in the physics t…
Stellar Wind Yields of Very Massive Stars
Erin R. Higgins, Jorick S. Vink, Raphael Hirschi +2
The most massive stars provide an essential source of recycled material for young clusters and galaxies. While very massive stars (VMS, M>100M) are relatively rare compared to O st…
Very Massive Stars and Pair-Instability Supernovae: Mass-loss Framework for low Metallicity
Gautham N. Sabhahit, Jorick S. Vink, Andreas A. C. Sander +1
Very massive stars (VMS) up to 200-300 have been found in the Local Universe. If they would lose little mass they produce intermediate-mass black holes or pair-instabilit…
X-Shooting ULLYSES: massive stars at low metallicity. I. Project Description
Jorick S. Vink, A. Mehner, P. A. Crowther +78
Observations of individual massive stars, super-luminous supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, and gravitational-wave events involving spectacular black-hole mergers, indicate that the low…
