XMM-Newton has deeply changed our picture of X-ray emission of hot, massive stars. High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy as well as monitoring of these objects helped us gain a deeper insight into the physics of single massive stars with or without magn...
The young massive-star-forming region M17 contains optically visible massive pre-main-sequence stars that are surrounded by circumstellar disks. Such disks are expected to disappear when these stars reach the main sequence. The physical and dynamical...
The unlicensed spectrum, although free, has become an invaluable resource toward enabling massive Internet-of-things (IoT) applications, where Internet-enabled devices are deployed at a large scale. However, realizing massive IoT connectivity over un...
Melnick 34 (Mk 34) is one of the most massive binary systems known and is one of the brightest X-ray point sources in the 30 Doradus region. We investigated the impact of this massive system on the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM) using the opti...
Motivated by the recent introduction of an integrable coupled massive Thirring model by Basu-Mallick et al, we introduce a new coupled Soler model. Further we generalize both the coupled massive Thirring and the coupled Soler model to arbitrary nonli...
In this chapter I review theoretical models for the formation of very massive stars. After a brief overview of some relevant observations, I spend the bulk of the chapter describing two possible routes to the formation of very massive stars: formatio...
The important role of metallicity on massive star evolution and the combination of multi-object spectrographs and 10m class telescopes, have lead to numerous systematic studies of massive stars in Local Group galaxies. While color based quests of blu...
The star-forming galaxies of the Local Group act as our laboratories for testing massive star evolutionary models. In this review, I briefly summarize what we believe we know about massive star evolution, and the connection between OB stars, Luminous...
We have undertaken a Parkes ammonia spectral line study, in the lowest two inversion transitions, of southern massive star formation regions, including young massive candidate protostars, with the aim of characterising the earliest stages of massiv...
Super Star Clusters are one of the most extreme star forming environments in the universe, and the most massive and dense of these may be proto globular clusters. Like individual massive stars, the earliest stages of super star cluster evolution ar...
New facilities and technologies have advanced our understanding of massive stars significantly over the past 30 years. Here I introduce a new large survey of massive stars using VLT-FLAMES, noting the target fields and observed binary fractions. Th...
The discovery of pulsations in ultra-massive white dwarfs can help to probe their interiors and unveil their core composition and crystallized mass fraction through asteroseismic techniques. To date, the richest pulsating ultra-massive white dwarf kn...
The US and Israel have launched a “massive” military operation, striking multiple Iranian targets. CNN’s Jeremy Diamond analyzes how the events quickly unfolded.
GW231123, the most massive binary black hole (BBH) merger detected by LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA, highlights the need to understand the origins of massive, high-spin stellar black holes (BHs). Dense star clusters provide natural environments for forming such s...
If you describe a medical condition as massive, you mean that it is extremely serious. He died six weeks later of a massive heart attack. Collins COBUILD Advanced Learner’s Dictionary. Copyright …
The meaning of MASSIVE is forming or consisting of a large mass. How to use massive in a sentence.
The massive galaxy population above the characteristic Schechter mass M*~10^10.6 Msun contributes to about half of the total stellar mass in the local Universe. These massive galaxies usually reside in hot dark matter haloes above the critical shock-...
We discuss the various post-main sequence phases of massive stars, focusing on Wolf-Rayet stars, Luminous Blue Variables, plus connections with other early-type and late-type supergiants. End states for massive stars are also investigated, emphasis...
4 days ago · Based on the latest Stephen Curry injury update and potential return date, the Golden State Warriors face a massive decision about his future.
In this paper, we propose low-complexity local detectors and log-likelihood ratio (LLR) refinement techniques for a coded cell-free massive multiple input multiple output (CF- mMIMO) systems, where an iterative detection and decoding (IDD) scheme is...
