Principal research lines

Massive stars are fundamental agents of the Universe at galactic-scale. They are mighty sources that ionize and shape the interstellar medium. Their death as supernovae can outshine entire galaxies and releases a wealth of metals synthesized in the stellar interior enriching the Universe. Either as basic ingredients or probes, massive stars are crucial to understand a variety of phenomena in Astrophysics.

Within the Massive Star group at the CAB we focus our interests around complementary research lines focused on:
