The ionization structure of early-B supergiant winds
We present empirically determined ionization conditions for the winds of 106 luminous B0 to B5 stars observed by IUE. The UV wind lines are modelled to extract products of mass-loss rates times ionization fractions (Ṁ qi(w), where w = v/v∞) for N , C , Si , Si , Al and C . We describe the general behaviour of the Ṁ qi(w) and their ratios, demonstrating that the wind ionization inc...
متن کاملDirect Spectroscopic Observations of Clumping in O - Star Winds
We report the detection and monitoring of transient substructures in the radiation-driven winds of five massive, hot stars in different evolutionary stages. Clumping in the winds of these stars shows up as variable, narrow subpeaks superposed on their wide, wind-broadened (optical) emission lines. Similar patterns of emission-line profile variations are detected in the Of stars ζ Puppis and HD9...
متن کاملClumping in the winds of O-type CSPNs
Recent studies of massive O-type stars present clear evidences of inhomogeneous and clumped winds. O-type (H-rich) central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPNs) are in some ways the low mass–low luminosity analogous of those massive stars. In this contribution, we present preliminary results of our on-going multi-wavelength (FUV, UV and optical) study of the winds of Galactic CSPNs. Particular emp...
متن کاملModelling the clumping-induced polarimetric variability of hot star winds
Context. Clumping in the winds of massive stars may significantly reduce empirical mass-loss rates, and which in turn may have a large impact on our understanding of massive star evolution. Aims. Here, we investigate wind-clumping through the linear polarization induced by light scattering off the clumps. Methods. Through the use of an analytic wind clumping model, we predict the time evolution...
متن کاملChemical abundances and winds of massive stars in M31: a B-type supergiant and a WC star in OB10
We present high quality spectroscopic data for two massive stars in the OB10 association of M31, OB10–64 (B0 Ia) and OB10-WR1 (WC6). Medium resolution spectra of both stars were obtained using the ISIS spectrograph on the William Hershel Telescope. This is supplemented with HST-STIS UV spectroscopy and Keck I HIRES data for OB10–64. A non-LTE model atmosphere and abundance analysis for OB10–64 ...
