Angular Diameters and Fundamental Parameters of Forty-four Stars from the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer [PDF]
We measured the angular diameters of 44 stars with the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer, obtaining uncertainties on the limb-darkened diameter of 2% or less for all but four stars.

Ultraviolet spectra were taken of 25 detached eclipsing binaries (DEBs) with spectral types O, B, and early A with the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite in the 1150–1900 Å region. The spectra were compared with BOSZ model atmospheres.

Fundamental stellar parameters of benchmark stars from CHARA interferometry [PDF]
Context.Benchmark stars are crucial as validating standards for current as well as future large stellar surveys of the Milky Way. However, the number of suitable metal-poor benchmark stars is currently limited, owing to the difficulty in determining reliable effective temperatures (Teff) in this regime.Aims.We aim to construct a new set of metal-poor ...

Rotation: a fundamental parameter of massive stars [PDF]
Massive stars are rapid rotators. Equatorial rotation velocities span the range vrot = 100–400 km s−1, with B stars rotating closest to their break-up speed vcrit (Howarth et al. 1997). During the last decade, many observations have revealed unusual surface abundances that may require additional internal mixing (beyond that of simple convection and ...

Fundamental Parameters of the W Serpentis Stars [PDF]
AbstractApplication of digital cross-correlation spectroscopy to the spectra of the W Serpentis binaries SX Cas and RX Cas has allowed an accurate determination of the orbits and rotations of the (mass-losing) K-subgiant secondary components. The distortion of the primary radial-velocity curves due to the influence of the prominent accretion disks in ...

When a Period Is Not a Full Stop: Light Curve Structure Reveals Fundamental Parameters of Cepheid and RR Lyrae Stars [PDF]
The period of pulsation and the structure of the light curve for Cepheid and RR Lyrae variables depend on the fundamental parameters of the star: mass, radius, luminosity, and effective temperature.

The fundamental parameters of the roAp starγ Equulei [PDF]
Physical processes working in the stellar interiors as well as the evolution of stars depend on some fundamental stellar properties, such as mass, radius, luminosity, and chemical abundances. A classical way to test stellar interior models is to compare the predicted and observed location of a star on theoretical evolutionary tracks in a H-R diagram ...

Fundamental Parameters of 87 Stars from the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer [PDF]
We present the fundamental properties of 87 stars based on angular diameter measurements from the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer, 36 of which have not been measured previously using interferometry.

Context. The variety of physical processes at play in chemically peculiar stars makes it difficult to determine their fundamental parameters. In particular, for the magnetic ones, called Ap stars, the strong magnetic fields and the induced spotted ...
