Hydrodynamical models of clumping beyond 50 R∗

We present one-dimensional, time-dependent models of the clumps generated by the linedeshadowing instability. In order to follow the clumps out to distances of more than 1000 stellar radii, we use an efficient moving-box technique. We show that, …

Non-thermal radio emission from O-type stars. III. Is Cygnus OB2 No. 9 a wind-colliding binary?

The star Cyg OB2 No. 9 is a well-known non-thermal radio emitter. Recent theoretical work suggests that all such O-stars should be in a binary or a multiple system. However, there is no spectroscopic evidence of a binary component. Re-analysis of …
