Upper Mass-Loss Limits and Clumping in the Intermediate and Outer Wind Regions of OB stars

M. M. Rubio-Díez, J. O. Sundqvist, F. Najarro +4

We probe the radial clumping stratification of OB stars in the intermediate and outer wind regions (r>~2 R*) to derive upper limits for mass-loss rates, and compare to current mass…

New infrared spectral indices of luminous cold stars: from early K to M-types

Maria Messineo, Donald F. Figer, Rolf-Peter Kudritzki +4

We present infrared spectral indices (1.0-2.3 um) of Galactic late-type giants and red supergiants (RSGs). We used existing and new spectra obtained at resolution power R=2000 with…

The Age of Westerlund 1 Revisited

Emma R. Beasor, Ben Davies, Nathan Smith +2

The cluster Westerlund~1 (Wd1) is host to a large variety of post main-sequence (MS) massive stars. The simultaneous presence of these stars can only be explained by stellar models…

A new candidate Luminous Blue Variable

Donald F. Figer, Francisco Najarro, Maria Messineo +2

We identify IRAS 16115-5044, which was previously classified as a protoplanetary nebula (PPN), as a candidate luminous blue variable (LBV). The star has high luminosity (>10$^{5.75…
