In our Galaxy, star formation occurs in a variety of environments, with a large fraction of stars formed in clusters hosting massive stars. OB stars have an important feedback on the evolution of protoplanetary disks orbiting around nearby young stars ...

A Catalog of New Slowly Pulsating B-type Stars
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.

Observations of magnetic fields in hot stars [PDF]
The presence of magnetic fields at the surfaces of many massive stars has been suspected for decades, to explain the observed properties and activity of OB stars. However, very few genuine high-mass stars had been identified as magnetic before the advent

Massive Stars and Their Supernovae [PDF]
Massive stars and their supernovae are prominent sources of radioactive isotopes, the observations of which thus can help to improve our astrophysical models of those. Our understanding of stellar evolution and the final explosive endpoints such as supernovae or hypernovae or gamma-ray bursts relies on the combination of magneto-hydrodynamics, energy ...

Understanding the Death of Massive Stars Using an Astrophysical Transients Observatory
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.

Maser, infrared and optical emission for late-type stars in the Galactic plane [PDF]
Radio astrometric campaigns using VLBI have provided distances and proper motions for masers associated with young massive stars (BeSSeL survey). The ongoing BAaDE project plans to obtain astrometric information of SiO maser stars located in the inner ...

On the ongoing multiple blowout in NGC 604 [PDF]
Several facts regarding the structure of NGC 604 are examined here. The three main cavities, produced by the mechanical energy from massive stars which in NGC 604 are spread over a volume of 10$^6$ pc$^3$, are shown here to be undergoing blowout into the

Gravoturbulent Star Formation: Effects of the Equation of State on Stellar Masses [PDF]
Stars form by gravoturbulent fragmentation of interstellar gas clouds. The supersonic turbulence ubiquitously observed in Galactic molecular gas generates strong density fluctuations with gravity taking over in the densest and most massive regions ...

Massive stars in transition [PDF]
We discuss the various post-main sequence phases of massive stars, focusing on Wolf-Rayet stars, Luminous Blue Variables, plus connections with other early-type and late-type supergiants. End states for massive stars are also investigated, emphasising connections between Supernovae originating from core-collapse massive stars and Gamma Ray Bursts.
