The evolution of massive stars in the context of V838 Monocerotis (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Hirschi, R. (2007). The evolution of massive stars in the context of V838 Monocerotis.

The aim of this paper is to look at the evolution of massive stars in order to determine whether or not the progenitor of V838 Mon may be a massive star. In the first part of this paper, the evolution of massive stars around solar metallicity is desc... Read More about The evolution of massive stars in the context of V838 Monocerotis.

ASTRA Spectrophotometer: Reduction and Flux Calibrations (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Smalley, B., F. Gulliver, A., & J. Adelman, S. (2007). ASTRA Spectrophotometer: Reduction and Flux Calibrations.

The ASTRA Cassegrain Spectrophotometer and its automated 0.5-m telescope at Fairborn Observatory in Arizona will produce a large quantity of high precision stellar flux distributions. A separate paper (Adelman et al. 2007) presented a review of the d... Read More about ASTRA Spectrophotometer: Reduction and Flux Calibrations.

Developments in physics of massive stars (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Meynet, G., Ekström, S., Maeder, A., Hirschi, R., Georgy, C., & Beffa, C. (2007). Developments in physics of massive stars. . https://doi.org/10.1017/S1743921308020449

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.

A coarse-grained spectral signature generator (2007)
Conference Proceeding
Lam, K., Austin, J., & Day, C. (2007). A coarse-grained spectral signature generator. . https://doi.org/10.1117/12.736723

This paper investigates the method for object fingerprinting in the context of element specific x-ray imaging. In particular, the use of spectral descriptors that are illumination invariant and viewpoint independent for pattern identification was exa...
