Stellar Evolution at Low Metallicity (2007)
Journal Article

Massive stars played a key role in the early evolution of the Universe. They formed with the first halos and started the re-ionisation. It is therefore very important to understand their evolution. In this review, we first recall the effect of metall... Read More about Stellar Evolution at Low Metallicity.

Developments in physics of massive stars (2007)
Conference Proceeding

New constraints on stellar models are provided by large surveys of massive stars, interferometric observations and asteroseismology. After a review of the main results so far obtained, we present new results from rotating models and discuss compariso... Read More about Developments in physics of massive stars.

Mass loss and very low-metallicity stars (2007)
Journal Article

Mass loss plays a dominant role in the evolution of massive stars at solar metallicity. After discussing different mass loss mechanisms and their metallicity dependence, we present the possibility of strong mass loss at very low metallicity. Our mode...

GRB progenitors at low metallicities (2007)
Journal Article

We calculated pre-supernova evolution models of single rotating massive stars. These models reproduce observations during the early stages of the evolution very well, in particular Wolf--Rayet (WR) populations and ratio between type II and type Ib,c...

The ultra-compact binary candidate KUV 23182+1007 is a bright quasar (2007)
Journal Article

KUV 23182+1007 was identified as a blue object in the Kiso UV Survey in the 1980s. Classification-dispersion spectroscopy showed a featureless continuum except for a strong emission line in the region of He II 4686 A. This is a hallmark of the rare A...

The Keele–Exeter young cluster survey – I. Low-mass pre-main-sequence stars in NGC 2169 (2007)
Journal Article

We have used R_C I_C CCD photometry from the Isaac Newton telescope and intermediate resolution spectroscopy from the Gemini North telescope to identify and characterise low-mass (0.15

GPR-derived sedimentary architecture and stratigraphy of outburst flood sedimentation within a bedrock valley system, Hraundalur, Iceland (2007)
Journal Article

Jökulhlaups and lahars are both types of outburst flood that commonly comprise a glacial meltwater and volcaniclastic sediment mix, and have discharges that are typically several orders of magnitude greater than perennial flows. Both types thus const... Read More about GPR-derived sedimentary architecture and stratigraphy of outburst flood sedimentation within a bedrock valley system, Hraundalur, Iceland.
