Understanding the Death of Massive Stars Using an Astrophysical Transients Observatory
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018 The death of massive stars, manifested as gamma-ray bursts and core-collapse supernovae, critically influence how the universe formed and evolves. Despite their fundamental importance, our understanding of these enigmatic objects is severely limited.

Developments in Physics of Massive Stars [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractNew constraints on stellar models are provided by large surveys of massive stars, interferometric observations and asteroseismology. After a review of the main results so far obtained, we present new results from rotating models and discuss comparisons with observed features. We conclude that rotation is a key feature of massive star physics.

Observational Properties of 155 O- and B-type Massive Pulsating Stars
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 O- and B-type (OB-type) pulsating stars are important objects for studying the structure and evolution of massive stars through asteroseismology. A large amount of data from various sky surveys provides an unprecedented opportunity to search for and ...

A Brief Galactic Winds and the Role Played by Massive Stars [PDF]
, 2017 Galactic winds from star-forming galaxies play at key role in the evolution of galaxies and the inter-galactic medium. They transport metals out of galaxies, chemically-enriching the inter-galactic medium and modifying the chemical evolution of galaxies.

Massive Stars in the Galactic Center [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007 AbstractWe present results of two studies aiming at better understanding the properties of massive stars in the Galactic Center. We focus on the youngest and oldest of the three massive clusters harboring this region, namely the Arches and central cluster.

Quark deconfinement as a supernova explosion engine for massive blue supergiant stars [PDF]
Nature Astronomy, 2017 Blue supergiant stars develop into core-collapse supernovae—one of the most energetic outbursts in the Universe—when all nuclear burning fuel is exhausted in the stellar core.

Massive star and star cluster formation [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006 AbstractI review the status of massive star formation theories: accretion from collapsing, massive, turbulent cores; competitive accretion; and stellar collisions. I conclude the observational and theoretical evidence favors the first of these models.

Zooming in to Massive Star Birth [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2018 Abstract We present high-resolution (0.″2, 1000 au) 1.3 mm ALMA observations of the massive infrared dark cloud clump, G028.37+00.07-C1, thought to harbor the early stages of massive star formation. Using (3–2), we resolve the previously identified C1-S core, separating the

A Catalog of New Slowly Pulsating B-type Stars
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 This paper reports the discovery of new slowly pulsating B-type stars. Based on the photometric, spectral, and astrometric data of the TESS, LAMOST, and Gaia surveys, we have found 286 new slowly pulsating B-type (SPB) stars and 21 candidates.
