Stephan extends the work he has performed previously in the Magellanic Clouds to RSGs identified in the ASSESS project in galaxies at subsolar metallicity. Investigating episodic mass loss in evolved massive stars: II. Physical properties of red supergiants at subsolar metallicity S. de Wit, A.Z. Bonanos, K. Antoniadis, E. Zapartas, …
This is a paper led by Kostas from the ASSESS team where we investigated the mass-loss in LMC/s RSGs. Interestingly this made its way to the astrobites site. Establishing a mass-loss rate relation for red supergiants in the Large Magellanic Cloud K. Antoniadis, A.Z. Bonanos, S. de Wit, E. Zapartas, …
This is the paper that describes the ASSESS project for which I have been working since 2018 ! Introducing the ASSESS project: Episodic Mass Loss in Evolved Massive Stars – Key to Understanding the Explosive Early Universe A.Z. Bonanos, G. Maravelias, M. Yang, F. Tramper, S. de Wit, E. Zapartas, …
Although I thought at the beginning that this would be a quick paper, it took considerable time to complete! Thanks a lot to Stephan that did significant work with figures I was able to focus on the text and the discussion. This is the first work to reveal B[e] Supergiants …
This is a paper that I finally managed to complete. Starting back in 2016 we looked into the light curves for ρ Cas to identify potential correlations with its latest outburst in 2013, but not all data made it through the final paper (Kraus et al. 2019). Given this first …
