An Investigation into the Variability of Luminous Blue Variable Stars with TESS
The Astronomical JournalLuminous blue variables (LBVs) are enigmatic, evolved, massive stars. Their variability has been observed to be episodic with large eruptions, along with variations on timescales of days to decades.

The Astronomical JournalMany mechanisms have been proposed to contribute to massive-star mass loss, but in general little is known about the physics involved. Studies of circumstellar environments around massive stars might help to determine which mechanisms are the most common.

New red supergiant stars in the other side of our Galaxy
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyABSTRACT Red supergiant stars (RSGs) are massive stars in a late stage of evolution, crucial for understanding stellar life cycles and Galactic structure. However, RSGs on the far side of our Galaxy have been underexplored due to observational challenges.

On the formation of a 33 solar-mass black hole in a low-metallicity binary
The Open Journal of AstrophysicsA $33\,M_\odot$ black hole (BH) was recently discovered in an 11.6-year binary only 590 pc from the Sun. The system, Gaia BH3, contains a $0.8\,M_\odot$ low-metallicity giant ($\rm [M/H]=-2.2$) that is a member of the ED-2 stellar stream.

A New Approach to Identifying Red Supergiant Stars in Metal-poor Galaxies: A Case Study of NGC 6822
The Astrophysical JournalA complete sample of red supergiant (RSG) stars is important for studying their properties. Identifying RSGs in extragalactic fields first requires removing the Galactic foreground dwarfs.

Yellow Hypergiants as Dynamically Unstable Post-Red-supergiant Stars
, 2001 According to recent theoretical studies, the majority of single stars more massive than 30 solar mass successfully evolve into red supergiants, but then lose most of their hydrogen envelopes and metamorphose into hot blue remnants.

The Astrophysical Journal LettersRed supergiants (RSGs) represent a late evolutionary stage of massive stars. Recent observations reveal that the observed luminosity range of RSGs in young open clusters is wider than expected from single-star evolution models.
