Projected rotational velocities (vsini) are presented for a sample of 350 early B-type main sequence stars in the nearby Galactic disk. The stars are located within ~1.5 kpc from the Sun, and the great majority within 700 pc. The analysis…
Aim - In this work, a sample of vsini of B9 to F2-type main sequence single stars has been built from highly homogeneous vsini parameters determined for a large sample cleansed from objects presenting the Am and Ap phenomenon as well as…
We present results of a BVI variability survey in the young open cluster NGC 457 based on observations obtained during three separate runs spanning almost 20 years. In total, we found 79 variable stars, of which 66 are new. The BVI…
The evolutionary status of Be-type stars remains unclear, with both single-star and binary pathways having been proposed. Here, VFTS spectroscopy of 73 Be-type stars, in the spectral-type range, B0--B3, is analysed to estimate projected…
Using a sample of 92 Galactic Be stars, we compare inclination angles (the angle between a star's rotation axis and the line-of-sight) determined from H$\alpha$ emission line profile fitting to those determined by the spectroscopic…
In an attempt of clarifying the connection between the photospheric abundance anomalies and the stellar rotation as well as of exploring the nature of "normal A" stars, the abundances of seven elements (C, O, Si, Ca, Ti, Fe, and Ba) and the…
We recently discovered a large number of highly active Be stars in the open cluster NGC 3766, making it an excellent location to study the formation mechanism of Be star disks. To explore whether similar disk appearances and/or…
Be stars are rapid rotators surrounded by a gaseous disk envelope whose origin is still under debate. This envelope is responsible for observed emission lines and large infrared excess. To progress in the understanding of the physical…
In this study, we analyze the emission lines of different species present in 118 Galactic field classical Be stars in the wavelength range of 3800 - 9000 \AA. We re-estimated the extinction parameter (A$_V$) for our sample stars using the…
B-type stars are known to rotate at various velocities, including very fast rotators near the critical velocity as the Be stars. In this paper, we provide stellar models covering the mass range between 1.7 to 15 Msun, which includes the…
We derive projected rotational velocities (vsini) for a sample of 156 Galactic OB star members of 35 clusters, HII regions, and associations. The HeI lines at $\lambda\lambda$4026, 4388, and 4471A were analyzed in order to define a…
We have analysed high-resolution spectra of 28 A and 22 F stars in the Kepler field, observed with the FIES spectrograph at the Nordic Optical Telescope. We provide spectral types, atmospheric parameters and chemical abundances for 50…
The circumstellar disk density distributions for a sample of 63 Be southern stars from the BeSOS survey were found by modelling their H$\alpha$ emission line profiles. These disk densities were used to compute disk masses and disk angular…
We present multiple epochs of H-alpha spectroscopy for 47 members of the open cluster NGC 3766 to investigate the long term variability of its Be stars. Sixteen of the stars in this sample are Be stars, including one new discovery. Of…
The spectra of stars with the B[e] phenomenon are dominated by features that are related to physical conditions of circumstellar material around these objects and are not intrinsic to the stars. Previous studies have shown that emission…
The Be stars display variable optical emission lines originating in the circumstellar disc. Here we analyse high resolution spectroscopic observations of Be stars and the distance between the peaks of H-alpha, H-beta, and H-gamma emission…
Light curves of 57 classical Be stars in TESS sectors 1 - 15 are examined. In most Be stars, the periodogram shows groups at a fundamental and one or more harmonics, which we attribute to rotation. In about 40 percent of the stars, the…
We present the results of a ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter observation of the variable radio star \ls. The source has a power law spectrum with photon index 1.1 +/- 0.3 and a luminosity of 5.9 x 10^{33} erg/s in the 0.1 -2.4…
We present high-quality spectra of the majority of stars that have been classified as Oe and find that their published spectral types are generally too early, most likely due to infilling of HeI lines. As a matter of fact, all stars…
The spectral energy distribution as a function of inclination is computed using 2D rotating stellar models and NLTE plane parallel stellar atmospheres. These models cover the range from $1.875M_{\odot}$ to $3.0M_{\odot}$. The deduced…
