The Impact of Realistic Red Supergiant Mass Loss on Stellar Evolution

TL;DR: In this article, a new de Jager prescription calibrated to RSGs with initial masses between 10 - 25 µm was proposed, which unlike previous prescriptions does not over estimate the mass loss rate for the most massive stars.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultraviolet Mg ii emission from fast neutral ejecta around Eta Carinae

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a method to use the Space Telescope Science Institute (SSTI) as a data collection station for the NASA GO-15596 project, using the AST-1312221 and AST-1515559 data sets.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Candidate Progenitor Companion Star of the Type Ib/c SN 2013ge

TL;DR: The first post-SN direct detection of a surviving companion to a stripped-envelope Type Ib/c explosion was reported in this paper , where the shape of the source's spectral energy distribution is most consistent with that of a B5 I supergiant.
Journal ArticleDOI

A silicate disk in the heart of the Ant

TL;DR: In this paper, the dusty core of the extreme bipolar planetary nebula Menzel 3 (Mz 3, Hen 2-154, the Ant) was resolved with the mid-infrared interferometer MIDI/VLTI and the adaptive optics NACO/VLT.

Massive black holes regulated by luminous blue variable mass loss and magnetic fields

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of mass loss during the main-sequence (MS) and post-MS phases of massive star evolution on black hole (BH) birth masses were investigated.
