Pulsations in hot supergiants
Massive stars are the cosmic engines that shape and drive our Universe. Many issues such as their formation, their stability and the mass loss effects, are far from being completely understood. Recent ground-based and space observations have shown pulsations in massive MS and post-MS stars, such as acoustic and gravity modes excited by the κ-mechanism and even solar-like oscillations. Theoretic...
متن کاملOn The Pulsational Stability of Blue Supergiants
The brightest blue supergiants represent the most massive evolved stars known. They are believed to be in the core helium-burning phase of evolution. To discuss the question of their stability, model interiors of core helium-burning stars with hydrogen-burning shells have been constructed and tested for pulsational instability (15-1000 M0). All models are found to be extremely stable against nu...
متن کاملVlt Spectroscopy of Blue Supergiants in Ic 1613 1
We present multi-object spectroscopy of young, massive stars in the Local Group galaxy IC 1613. We provide the spectral classification and a detailed spectral catalog for 54 OBA stars in this galaxy. The majority of the photometrically selected sample is composed of Band A-type supergiants. The remaining stars include early O-type dwarfs and the only Wolf-Rayet star known in this galaxy. Among ...
متن کاملMetallicities of 4 blue supergiants near the Galactic centre
High resolution optical spectra of four blue super-giants (HD148422 B0.5 Ib; HD178487 B0.5 Ib; HD179407 B1 Ib, HD163522 B1 Ib) which lie within 4.5 kpc of the Galac-tic centre are presented. Careful differential LTE model atmosphere analyses are used to quantify the differences in photo-spheric metal abundances between these stars and MK spectral standards in the solar neighborhood. A detailed ...
متن کاملRevised spectral types for 64 B-supergiants in the Small Magellanic Cloud: metallicity effects
The problem of the classification of metal poor stars, such as occur in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), is discussed with reference to the applicability of the MK system in such an environment. An alternative method is presented here and applied to B-type supergiants in the SMC. A local reference system is first devised and then a transformation to MK spectral types is determined by comparing...
