Boil-off of red supergiants: mass loss and type II-P supernovae
The Open Journal of AstrophysicsThe mass loss mechanism of red supergiant stars is not well understood, even though it has crucial consequences for their stellar evolution and the appearance of supernovae that occur upon core-collapse.

2 supergiants and 2 hypergiants radio spectra
, 2012 We present Herschel/HIFI spectra observed towards two Red Supergiants (NML Cyg, Betelgeuse) and two Yellow Hypergiants (AFGL2343, IRC+10420). The data focus on various transitions of 12CO, 13CO, ortho- and para- water, as well as some other bonus lines ...

Red Supergiants—The Other Side of the H-R Diagram
GalaxiesRed supergiants are the largest stars known with some of the highest mass loss rates observed. They are the final stage in the evolution of the majority of massive stars.

What Physical Factors Influence the Transformation between Blue Supergiants and Red Supergiants?
The Astrophysical JournalThe post-main-sequence evolution of massive stars is highly sensitive to key stellar model parameters, particularly initial rotational velocity and metallicity.

Surface magnetic fields on giants and supergiants
, 2018 After a short introduction to spectropolarimetry and the tecnics allowing for the detection of surface fields, I will review the numerous and various detections of magnetic fields at the surface of giant and supergiant stars.

Red supergiants and stellar evolution
, 2013 We review the significant role played by red supergiants (RSGs) in stellar populations, and some challenges and questions they raise for theoretical stellar evolution. We present how metallicity and rotation modify the way stars go to

Red Supergiants as Supernova Progenitors
GalaxiesThe inevitable fate of massive stars in the initial mass range of ≈8–30M⊙ in the red supergiant (RSG) phase is a core-collapse supernova (SN) explosion, although some stars may collapse directly to a black hole.
