Abstract:
We present an atlas of spectra of O- and B-type stars, obtained with
the Short Wavelength Spectrometer (SWS) during the Post-Helium program
of the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). This program is aimed at
extending the Morgan & Keenan (1973ARA&A..11...29M 1973ARA&A..11...29M) classification
scheme into the near-infrared. Later type stars will be discussed in a
separate publication. The observations consist of 57 SWS Post-Helium
spectra from 2.4 to 4.1µm, supplemented with 10 spectra acquired
during the nominal mission with a similar observational setting. For
B-type stars, this sample provides ample spectral coverage in terms of
subtype and luminosity class. For O-type stars, the ISO sample is
coarse and therefore is complemented with 8 UKIRT L'-band
observations. In terms of the presence of diagnostic lines, the
L'-band is likely the most promising of the near-infrared atmospheric
windows for the study of the physical properties of B stars.
Specifically, this wavelength interval contains the Brα,
Pfγ, and other Pfund lines which are probes of spectral type,
luminosity class and mass loss. Here, we present simple empirical
methods based on the lines present in the 2.4 to 4.1µm interval
that allow the determination of i) the spectral type of B dwarfs and
giants to within two subtypes; ii) the luminosity class of B stars to
within two classes; iii) the mass-loss rate of O stars and B
supergiants to within 0.25dex.
