Binary Interaction Dominates the Evolution of Massive Stars
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
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.

Rotating Massive Main-Sequence Stars I: Grids of Evolutionary Models and Isochrones
Ines Brott,Selma E. de Mink,Matteo Cantiello,Norbert Langer,Alex de Koter,Chris Evans,Ian Hunter,Carrie Trundle,Jorick S. Vink +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, 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
The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey. VIII. Multiplicity properties of the O-type star population
Hugues Sana,A. de Koter,A. de Koter,S. E. de Mink,S. E. de Mink,P. R. Dunstall,Chris Evans,Vincent Hénault-Brunet,J. Maíz Apellániz,O.H. Ramírez-Agudelo,W. D. Taylor,Nolan R. Walborn,J. S. 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.
Journal ArticleDOI
The empirical metallicity dependence of the mass-loss rate of O- and early B-type stars
M. R. Mokiem,A. de Koter,Jorick S. Vink,Joachim Puls,Chris Evans,Stephen J. Smartt,Paul A. Crowther,Artemio Herrero,Artemio Herrero,Norbert Langer,D. J. Lennon,Francisco Najarro,M. R. Villamariz +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive study of the observational dependence of the mass-loss rate in stationary stellar winds of hot massive stars on the metal content of their atmospheres is presented, and critical assessment is given of state-of-the-art mass loss determinations of OB stars in these two satellite systems and the Milky-Way.
