Hugues Sana,S. E. de Mink,S. E. de Mink,A. de Koter,A. de Koter,Norbert Langer,Chris Evans,Mark Gieles,Eric Gosset,Robert G. Izzard,J.-B. Le Bouquin,Fabian Schneider +11 more
TL;DR: More than 70% of all massive stars will exchange mass with a companion, leading to a binary merger in one-third of the cases, greatly exceed previous estimates and imply that binary interaction dominates the evolution of massive stars, with implications for populations ofmassive stars and their supernovae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mass-loss predictions for O and B stars as a function of metallicity
TL;DR: In this paper, a grid of massive star wind models and mass-loss rates for a wide range of metal abundances between 1=100 Z=Z 10 was calculated and the mass loss rate was shown to be constant in the range between 1/30 Z =Z 3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rotating massive main-sequence stars - I. Grids of evolutionary models and isochrones
Ines Brott,Ines Brott,S. E. de Mink,S. E. de Mink,Matteo Cantiello,Norbert Langer,Norbert Langer,A. de Koter,A. de Koter,Chris Evans,Ian Hunter,Carrie Trundle,Jorick S. Vink +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a dense grid of evolutionary tracks and isochrones of rotating massive main-sequence stars is presented to compare with early OB stars in the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds and in the Galaxy.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the metallicity dependence of Wolf-Rayet winds
Jorick S. Vink,A. de Koter +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed a pilot study of mass loss predictions for late-type Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars as a function of metal abundance, over a range between 10 −5 ≤ (Z/Z ○. ) ≤ 10.
Journal ArticleDOI
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. VIII. Multiplicity properties of the O-type star population

Clark,Paul A. Crowther,Artemio Herrero,Artemio Herrero,Mark Gieles,Norbert Langer,D. J. Lennon,Jorick S. Vink +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the multiplicity properties of the massive O-type star population were analyzed using multi-epoch spectroscopy and variability analysis to identify spectroscopic binaries.
