Asteroseismology of High-Mass Stars: New Insights of Stellar Interiors With Space Telescopes
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2020 Massive stars are important metal factories in the Universe. They have short and energetic lives, and many of them inevitably explode as a supernova and become a neutron star or black hole.

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.

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.

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 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 ...

Unveiling the Evolutionary State of Three B Supergiant Stars: PU Gem, ϵ CMa, and η CMa
Galaxies, 2023 We aim to combine asteroseismology, spectroscopy, and evolutionary models to establish a comprehensive picture of the evolution of Galactic blue supergiant stars (BSG). To start such an investigation, we selected three BSG candidates for our analysis: HD

The influence of metallicity on helium and CO core masses in massive stars [PDF]
Serbian Astronomical Journal, 2023 We present the results of 58 detailed evolutionary models of massive single stars and close binary systems with the Solar and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) metallicity computed with the MESA (Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics ...

The Evolution of Massive Stars [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997 Massive stars are the crossroads of many important astrophysical problems and thus a proper understanding of their evolution is very needed. They are the main sources of UV radiation, by heating the interstellar dust they produce the far-IR luminosities of galaxies.

Massive Star Modeling and Nucleosynthesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021 After a brief introduction to stellar modeling, the main lines of massive star evolution are reviewed, with a focus on the nuclear reactions from which the star gets the needed energy to counterbalance its gravity. The different burning phases are described, as well as the structural impact they have on the star.

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 astrophysics, among which, galaxy evolution, nucleosynthesis, supernovae, neutron stars and pulsars, black ...
