The Evolution of Massive Binary Stars [PDF]
Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2023 Massive stars play a major role in the evolution of their host galaxies and serve as important probes of the distant Universe. It has been established that the majority of massive stars reside in close binaries and interact with their companion stars ...

Supernovae from massive stars [PDF]
, 2017 Massive stars, by which we mean those stars exploding as core collapse supernovae, play a pivotal role in the evolution of the Universe. Therefore, the understanding of their evolution and explosion is fundamental in many branches of physics and ...

Strongly interacting matter exhibits deconfined behavior in massive neutron stars [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Neutron-star cores contain matter at the highest densities in our Universe. This highly compressed matter may undergo a phase transition where nuclear matter melts into deconfined quark matter, liberating its constituent quarks and gluons.

Different to the core: the pre-supernova structures of massive single and binary-stripped stars [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2021 The majority of massive stars live in binary or multiple systems and will interact during their lifetimes, which helps to explain the observed diversity of core-collapse supernovae.

New Insights into the Evolution of Massive Stars and Their Effects on Our Understanding of Early Galaxies [PDF]
, 2022 The observable characteristics and subsequent evolution of young stellar populations is dominated by their massive stars. As our understanding of those massive stars and the factors affecting their evolution improves, so our interpretation of distant ...

The R136 star cluster dissected with Hubble Space Telescope/STIS – II. Physical properties of the most massive stars in R136 [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 We present an optical analysis of 55 members of R136, the central cluster in the Tarantula Nebula of the Large Magellanic Cloud. Our sample was observed with STIS aboard the Hubble Space Telescope, is complete down to about 40 M⊙, and includes seven ...

The evolution of massive binary systems [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2020 The evolution of massive stars in close binary systems is significantly different from single star evolution due to a series of interactions between the two stellar components.

On the Formation of Massive Stars [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2002 We calculate numerically the collapse of slowly rotating, non-magnetic, massive molecular clumps, which conceivably could lead to the formation of massive stars. Because radiative acceleration on dust grains plays a critical role in the clump's dynamical evolution, we utilize a wavelength-dependent radiation transfer and a three component dust model ...

Multiplicity of massive stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2000 We discuss the observed multiplicity of massive stars and implications on theories of massive star formation. After a short summary of the literature on massive star multiplicity, we focus on the O-and B-type stars in the Orion Nebula Cluster, which constitute a homogenous sample of very young massive stars.
