The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey
Jorick S. Vink, C. J. Evans, J. Bestenlehner +5
We present a number of notable results from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS), an ESO Large Program during which we obtained multi-epoch medium-resolution optical spectroscopy…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. XXIII: two massive double-lined binaries in 30~Doradus
Ian D. Howarth, P. L. Dufton, P. R. Dunstall +9
We investigate the characteristics of two newly discovered short-period, double-lined, massive binary systems, VFTS 450 (O9.7II--Ib+O7::) and VFTS 652 (B1IbO…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XVIII. Classifications and radial velocities of the B-type stars
C. J. Evans, M. B. Kennedy, P. L. Dufton +14
We present spectral classifications for 438 B-type stars observed as part of the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS) in the 30 Doradus region of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Radial v…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey XIX. B-type Supergiants - Atmospheric parameters and nitrogen abundances to investigate the role of binarity and the width of the main sequence
C. M. McEvoy, P. L. Dufton, C. J. Evans +19
TLUSTY non-LTE model atmosphere calculations have been used to determine atmospheric parameters and nitrogen (N) abundances for 34 single and 18 binary B-type supergiants (BSGs). T…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey X: Evidence for a bimodal distribution of rotational velocities for the single early B-type stars
P. L. Dufton, N. Langer, P. R. Dunstall +12
Aims: Projected rotational velocities (\vsini) have been estimated for 334 targets in the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula survey that do not manifest significant radial velocity variations an…
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey VIII. Multiplicity properties of the O-type star population
H. Sana, A. de Koter, S. E. de Mink +14
Aims. We analyze the multiplicity properties of the massive O-type star population. With 360 O-type stars, this is the largest homogeneous sample of massive stars analyzed to date.…
