Hot stars observed by XMM-Newton - I. The catalog and the properties of OB stars
- Y. Nazé
- Physics
- 11 August 2009
Aims. Following the advent of increasingly sensitive X-ray observatories, deep observations of early-type stars became possible. However, the results for only a few objects or clusters have until now…
Early-type stars in the core of the young open cluster Westerlund 2 ⋆⋆⋆
- G. Rauw, J. Manfroid, A. Moffat
- Physics
- 21 December 2006
Aims. The properties of the early-type stars in the core of the Westerlund 2 cluster are examined in order to establish a link bet ween the cluster and the very massive Wolf-Rayet binary WR 20a as…
An XMM–Newton view of the young open cluster NGC 6231 – II. The OB star population★
In this second paper of the series, we pursue the analysis of the 180-ks XMM‐Newton campaign towards the young open cluster NGC 6231 and we focus on its rich OB star population. We present a…
X-ray spectroscopy of stars
Non-degenerate stars of essentially all spectral classes are soft X-ray sources. Their X-ray spectra have been important in constraining physical processes that heat plasma in stellar environments to…
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey
- G. Gilmore, S. Randich, T. Zwitter
- Physics
- 1 March 2012
The Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey has begun and will obtain high quality spectroscopy of some 100000 Milky Way stars, in the field and in open clusters, down to magnitude 19, systematically ...
The spectrum of the very massive binary system WR 20a (WN6ha + WN6ha): Fundamental parameters and wind interactions
- G. Rauw, P. Crowther, P. Williams
- Physics
- 1 March 2005
We analyse the optical spectrum of the very massive binary system WR 20a (WN6ha + WN6ha). The most prominent emission lines, Hα and He λ 4686, display strong phase-locked profile variability. From…
WR 20a: a massive cornerstone binary system comprising two extreme early-type stars ⋆
- G. Rauw, M. D. Becker, P. M. Williams
- Physics
- 28 April 2004
We analyse spectroscopic observations of WR 20a revealing that this star is a massive early-type binary system with a most probable orbital period of ∼3.675 days. Our spectra indicate that both…

CARINA OB STARS: X-RAY SIGNATURES OF WIND SHOCKS AND MAGNETIC FIELDS
- M. Gagne, G. Fehon, L. Oskinova
- Physics
- 6 March 2011
The Chandra Carina Complex contains 200 known O- and B-type stars. The Chandra survey detected 68 of the 70 O stars and 61 of 127 known B0-B3 stars. We have assembled a publicly available…
The ATHENA X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU)

- PhysicsAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation
- 10 June 2018
The X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer of the ESA Athena X-ray observatory. Over a field of view of 5’ equivalent diameter, it will deliver X-ray spectra from…
