A stellar rotation census of B stars

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Two recent observing campaigns provide us with moderate dispersion spectra of more than 230 cluster and 370 field B stars.

Description

Combining them and the spectra of the B stars from our previous investigations (~430 cluster and ~100 field B stars) yields a large, homogeneous sample for studying the rotational properties of B stars. We derive the projected rotational velocity vsini, effective temperature, gravity, mass, and critical rotation speed V_crit_ for each star.

We compare the evolutionary trends of rotation (measured according to the polar gravity of the star) with recent models that treat internal mixing.
