The properties of early-type stars in the Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008
AbstractThe past decade has witnessed impressive progress in our understanding of the physical properties of massive stars in the Magellanic Clouds, and how they compare to their cousins in the Galaxy. I summarise new results in this field, including evidence for reduced mass-loss rates and faster stellar rotational velocities in the Clouds, and their ...

Ultraviolet Spectrophotometry of Early-Type Stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1976
The ultraviolet spectra of B stars obtained with the sky scan telescope in the TD1 satellite have been used to obtain narrow-band magnitudes at several wavelengths. These photometric bands have an effective half-width of 100 Å. We have proposed a two-dimensional classification scheme based on ultraviolet colours, and some preliminary results are ...

Magnetic Doppler imaging of early-type stars

open access: yes, 2010
Doppler imaging of early-type magnetic stars is the most advanced method to interpret their line profile variations. DI allows us to study directly a complex interplay between chemical spots, magnetic fields, and the mass loss.

VLT/SPHERE survey for exoplanets around young early-type stars, including systems with multi-belt architectures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Context. Dusty debris disks around pre- and main-sequence stars are potential signposts for the existence of planetesimals and exoplanets. Giant planet formation is therefore expected to play a key role in the evolution of the disk.

What can magnetic early B-type stars tell us about early B-type stars in general?

open access: yes, 2016
Some magnetic early B-type stars display Hα emission originating in their Centrifugal Magnetospheres (CMs). To determine the rotational and magnetic properties necessary for the onset of emission, we analyzed a large spectropolarimetric dataset for a ...

Mass Loss from Early-Type Stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1970
Following the detailed study of four very high luminosity OB stars, a survey has been made for spectroscopic evidence of mass loss in a number of early-type supergiants. A list of spectroscopic criteria is given and the mass loss estimates for 24 stars plotted on the HR diagram.

Bayesian Ages for Early-type Stars from Isochrones Including Rotation, and a Possible Old Age for the Hyades

open access: yes, 2015
We combine recently computed models of stellar evolution using a new treatment of rotation with a Bayesian statistical framework to constrain the ages and other properties of early-type stars. We find good agreement for early-type stars and clusters with

Early assembly of the most massive galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The current consensus is that galaxies begin as small density fluctuations in the early Universe and grow by in situ star formation and hierarchical merging(1).

A Study of Stochastic Low-frequency Variability for Galactic O-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
In order to explore how the ubiquitous stochastic low-frequency (SLF) variability of O-type stars is related to various stellar characteristics, we compiled a sample of 150 O-type stars observed via ground-based spectroscopic surveys, alongside ...
