The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey: The fastest rotating O-type star and shortest period LMC pulsar - remnants of a supernova disrupted binary?

P. L. Dufton, P. R. Dunstall, C. J. Evans +12

We present a spectroscopic analysis of an extremely rapidly rotating late O-type star, VFTS102, observed during a spectroscopic survey of 30 Doradus. VFTS102 has a projected rotati…

Resolved photometry of extragalactic young massive star clusters

S. S. Larsen, S. E. de Mink, J. J. Eldridge +6

We present colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) for a sample of seven young massive clusters in the galaxies NGC 1313, NGC 1569, NGC 1705, NGC 5236 and NGC 7793. The clusters have ages…

Binary progenitor models of type IIb supernovae

J. S. W. Claeys, S. E. de Mink, O. R. Pols +2

Massive stars that lose their hydrogen-rich envelope down to a few tenths of a solar mass explode as extended type IIb supernovae, an intriguing subtype that links the hydrogen-ric…

Rotating Massive Main-Sequence Stars II: Simulating a Population of LMC early B-type Stars as a Test of Rotational Mixing

Ines Brott, Chris J. Evans, Ian Hunter +9

Rotational mixing in massive stars is a widely applied concept, with far reaching consequences for stellar evolution. Nitrogen surface abundances for a large and homogeneous sample…

Rotating Massive Main-Sequence Stars I: Grids of Evolutionary Models and Isochrones

Ines Brott, Selma E. de Mink, Matteo Cantiello +6

We present a dense grid of evolutionary tracks and isochrones of rotating massive main-sequence stars. We provide three grids with different initial compositions tailored to compar…
