RAVE spectroscopy of luminous blue variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud
Context: The RAVE spectroscopic survey for galactic structure andevolution obtains 8400-8800 Å spectra at 7500 resolving power atthe UK Schmidt Telescope using the 6dF multi-fiber positioner. More than300 000 9 ≤ IC ≤ 12 and |b| ≥ 25° southern starshave been observed to date. Aims: This paper presents the firstintrinsic examination of stellar spectra from the RAVE survey, aimed atevaluating their diagnostic potential for peculiar stars and atcontributing to the general understanding of luminous blue variables(LBVs). Methods: We used the multi-epoch spectra for all sevenLBVs observed, between 2005 and 2008, in the Large Magellanic Cloud(LMC) by the RAVE survey. Results: We demonstrate that RAVEspectra possess significant diagnostic potential when applied topeculiar stars and, in particular, LBVs. The behaviour of the radialvelocities for both emission and absorption lines, and the spectralchanges between outburst and quiescence states are described and foundto agree with evidence gathered at more conventional wavelengths. Thewind outflow signatures and their variability are investigated, withmulti-components detected in S Doradus. Photoionisation modelling of therich emission line spectrum of R 127 shows evidence of a massivedetached ionised shell that was ejected during the 1982-2000 outburst.Surface inhomogeneities in the nuclear-processed material, brought tothe surface by heavy mass loss, could have been observed in S Doradus,even if alternative explanations are possible. We also detect thetransition from quiescence to outburst state in R 71. Finally, ourspectrum of R 84 offers one of the clearest views of its cool companion.

S Doradus variables in the Galaxy and the Magellanic Clouds
The goal in writing this paper is five fold: (1) to summarize thescientific achievements in the 20th century on S Dor variables (orLBVs); (2) to present an inventory of these variables in the Galaxy andthe Magellanic Clouds with a description of their physical state andinstability properties; (3) to emphasize the photometric achievements ofthe various types of instabilities. Generally this seems to be aneglected item resulting in a number of misunderstandings continuouslywandering through literature; (4) to investigate the structure of the SDor-area on the HR-diagram; (5) to estimate the total numbers of S Dorvariables in the three stellar systems. The position of the strongactive S Dor variables in minimum brightness obey the following linearrelation on the HR-diagram:log L/Lsun = 1.37 log T_eff -0.03. The relatively small dispersion of less active and supposed ex-and dormant S Dor variables with respect to this relation is twice aslarge at the blue side than at the red side. This might be caused byevolution to the WR stage and/or to high rotation. S Dor variables canbe subject to five types of instabilities: the very rare genuineeruptive episodes (the ``SD-eruptions''), two different brighteningphases caused by slow pulsations (the ``SD-phases''): one on a timescale of years, the other on a time scale of decades at a more or lessconstant luminosity and two types of microvariations: one on a timescale of weeks, the other on a time scale of about 100 d. So far, noperiodicities of light curve characteristics of any of theseinstabilities have ever been found. The durations of active andnon-active stages are estimated for about half of the sample based onscattered magnitude estimations such as from historical records, and onmodern monitoring campaigns. It would be a misunderstanding to believethat all S Dor variables should be always spectacular. It is estimatedthat most of them will not be spectacular at all for at least 70% oftheir lifetime as an S Dor variable.

Stars with the Largest Hipparcos Photometric Amplitudes
A list of the 2027 stars that have the largest photometric amplitudes inHipparcos Photometry shows that most variable stars are all Miras. Thepercentage of variable types change as a function of amplitude. Thiscompilation should also be of value to photometrists looking forrelatively unstudied, but large amplitude stars.

The Progenitor Masses of Wolf-Rayet Stars and Luminous Blue Variables Determined from Cluster Turnoffs. I. Results from 19 OB Associations in the Magellanic Clouds
We combine new CCD UBV photometry and spectroscopy with those from theliterature to investigate 19 Magellanic Cloud OB associations thatcontain Wolf-Rayet (W-R) and other types of evolved, massive stars. Ourspectroscopy reveals a wealth of newly identified interesting objects,including early O-type supergiants, a high-mass, double-lined binary inthe SMC, and, in the LMC, a newly confirmed luminous blue variable (LBV;R85), a newly discovered W-R star (Sk -69°194), and a newly foundluminous B[e] star (LH 85-10). We use these data to provide precisereddening determinations and construct physical H-R diagrams for theassociations. We find that about half of the associations may be highlycoeval, with the massive stars having formed over a short period(Δτ<1 Myr). The (initial) masses of the highest massunevolved stars in the coeval clusters may be used to estimate themasses of the progenitors of W-R and other evolved stars found in theseclusters. Similarly, the bolometric luminosities of the highest massunevolved stars can be used to determine the bolometric corrections(BCs) for the evolved stars, providing a valuable observational basisfor evaluating recent models of these complicated atmospheres. What wefind is the following: (1) Although their numbers is small, it appearsthat the W-R stars in the SMC come from only the highest mass (greaterthan 70 Msolar) stars. This is in accord with ourexpectations that at low metallicities only the most massive andluminous stars will have sufficient mass loss to become W-R stars. (2)In the LMC, the early-type WN (WNE) stars occur in clusters whoseturnoff masses range from 30 to 100 Msolar or more. Thissuggests that possibly all stars with mass greater than 30Msolar pass through a WNE stage at LMC metallicities. (3) Theone WC star in the SMC is found in a cluster with a turnoff mass of 70Msolar, the same as that for the SMC WN stars. In the LMC,the WC stars are found in clusters with turnoff masses of 45Msolar or higher, similar to what is found for the LMC WNstars. Thus we conclude that WC stars come from essentially the samemass range as do WN stars and indeed are often found in the sameclusters. This has important implications for interpreting therelationship between metallicity and the WC/WN ratio found in LocalGroup galaxies, which we discuss. (4) The LBVs in our sample come fromvery high mass stars (greater than 85 Msolar), similar towhat is known for the Galactic LBV η Car, suggesting that only themost massive stars go through an LBV phase. Recently, Ofpe/WN9 starshave been implicated as LBVs after one such star underwent an LBV-likeoutburst. However, our study includes two Ofpe/WN9 stars, BE 381 and Br18, which we find in clusters with much lower turnoff masses (25-35Msolar). We suggest that Ofpe/WN9 stars are unrelated to``true'' LBVs: not all ``LBV-like outbursts'' may have the same cause.Similarly, the B[e] stars have sometimes been described as LBV-like.Yet, the two stars in our sample appear to come from a large mass range(30-60 Msolar). This is consistent with other studies,suggesting that B[e] stars cover a large range in bolometricluminosities. (5) The bolometric corrections of early WN and WC starsare found to be extreme, with an average BC(WNE) of -6.0 mag and anaverage BC(WC4) of -5.5 mag. These values are considerably more negativethan those of even the hottest O-type stars. However, similar valueshave been found for WNE stars by applying Hillier's ``standard model''for W-R atmospheres. We find more modest BCs for the Ofpe/WN9 stars(BC=-2 to -4 mag), also consistent with recent analysis done with thestandard model. Extension of these studies to the Galactic clusters willprovide insight into how massive stars evolve at differentmetallicities.

UBV photometry of Galactic foreground and LMC member stars - III. LMC member stars - a new data base
New UBV photometry for 878 luminous member stars of the Large MagellanicCloud (LMC) and 13 stars of uncertain membership is presented. The datawill be available at Centre de Données astronomiques deStrasbourg. Including former observations now UBV data are available foraltogether 2470 luminous LMC stars and 2106 foreground stars plus 65stars of uncertain membership. The observations have been used alreadyfor several investigations dealing e.g. with interstellar reddeninglines and intrinsic colours, the dust distribution and the calibrationof charge-coupled device exposures.

HIPPARCOS photometry of 24 variable massive stars (alpha Cygni variables)
The photometric variability of 24 alpha Cyg variables, i.e. variablesuper-and hypergiants, observed by the Hipparcos satellite is described.Three of the selected stars are situated in the SMC, 12 in the LMC andthe remaining 9 in the Galactic plane. Four of them are hot S Dor-typevariables, or LBVs (luminous blue variables) and two are possiblemembers of this class. Light curves are presented for all stars. Forfive stars, among which one LBV, the variability was discovered from theHipparcos photometric data. Results of period searches are presentedand, when relevant, folded light curves are shown. The linear ephemerisof two variables was revised. For most of the program stars theHipparcos magnitude scale (Hp) differs from the V of the UBV system byla 0fm1 . For all variables temperatures and M_bol are given. Galacticforeground reddening for the objects in the Magellanic Clouds are givenbased on IRAS maps.

The HIPPARCOS proper motion of the Magellanic Clouds
The proper motion of the Large (LMC) and Small (SMC) Magellanic Cloudusing data acquired with the Hipparcos satellite is presented. Hipparcosmeasured 36 stars in the LMC and 11 stars in the SMC. A correctlyweighted mean of the data yields the presently available most accuratevalues, mu_alpha cos(delta) = 1.94 +/- 0.29 mas/yr, mu_delta = - 0.14+/- 0.36 mas/yr for the LMC. For the SMC, mu_alpha cos(delta) = 1.23 +/-0.84 mas/yr, mu_delta = - 1.21 +/- 0.75 mas/yr is obtained, whereby careis taken to exclude likely tidal motions induced by the LMC. Bothgalaxies are moving approximately parallel to each other on the sky,with the Magellanic Stream trailing behind. The Hipparcos proper motionsare in agreement with previous measurements using PPM catalogue data byKroupa et al. (1994), and by Jones et al. (1994) using backgroundgalaxies in a far-outlying field of the LMC. For the LMC the Hipparcosdata suggest a weak rotation signal in a clockwise direction on the sky.Comparison of the Hipparcos proper motion with the proper motion of thefield used by Jones et al. (1994), which is about 7.3 kpc distant fromthe center of the LMC, also suggests clockwise rotation. Combining thethree independent measurements of the proper motion of the LMC and thetwo independent measurements of the proper motion of the SMC improvesthe estimate of the proper motion of the LMC and SMC. The correspondinggalactocentric space motion vectors are computed. Within theuncertainties, the LMC and SMC are found to be on parallel trajectories.Recent theoretical work concerning the origin of the Magellanic Systemis briefly reviewed, but a unique model of the Magellanic Stream, forthe origin of the Magellanic Clouds, and for the mass distribution inthe Galaxy cannot yet be decided upon. Future astrometric space missionsare necessary to significantly improve our present knowledge of thespace motion of the two most conspicuous galactic neighbours of theMilky Way.

B[e] phenomenon extending to lower luminosities in the Magellanic Clouds.
An analysis of the four recently discovered B[e] stars HenS35, S59, S93,and S137 in the Large Magellanic Cloud has been carried out usinglow-resolution IUE spectra, ESO 3.6-m CASPEC spectra, and ESO 0.5-m and1-m UBV and JHK photometry, respectively. LTE model atmospheres havebeen fitted to the observed continuum energy distributions in order toderive the stellar parameters. The results are T_eff_=22000K,R=28Rsun_, and logL/Lsun_=5.2 for HenS35,T_eff_=14000K, R=16Rsun_, and logL/Lsun_=4.0 forHenS59, and T_eff_=13000K, R=26Rsun_, andlogL/Lsun_=4.2 for HenS137. The presence of absorption linesin the optical spectrum of the B9[e]Ib star HenS93 allowed an additionalLTE line analysis for this star using Balmer, HeI, SIII, MgII, and FeIIlines to derive T_eff_=10000K, R=73Rsun_,logL/Lsun_=4.7, logg=1.75, ξ=10km/s, vsin i=65km/s, andM>14Msun_. Our investigation shows that the class of B[e]stars in the Magellanic Clouds extends to luminosities of aboutlogL/Lsun_=4, i.e. much lower than those of the previouslystudied B[e] supergiants. This result reinforces the importance of axialsymmetry in large regions of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram.

On the motion of the Magellanic Clouds
We have measured the proper motion of the Large and Small MagellanicClouds using Magellanic Cloud stars in the PPM Catalogue, and obtainμ = 1.7+/-0.9 mas yr^-1^ for the LMC. Systematic uncertainties arediscussed. Bound and unbound orbits of the Magellanic Clouds around theGalaxy are consistent with our result. The various models of theMagellanic Stream and their predictions for the motion of the MagellanicClouds are discussed. The predictions by several authors for the sametype of model differ by up to 0.3 mas yr^-1^. All models proposed todate that assume the Magellanic Clouds to lead the Magellanic Streampredict a proper motion for the LMC of between 1.5 and 2.0 mas yr^-1^,the smallest value being a prediction for a Galaxy with no halo. Otherindependent measurements of the proper motion of the LMC are discussed.These lie between 1 and 1.5 mas yr^-1^. Future astrometry will have toallow measurement of the proper motion of the LMC with an uncertainty nolarger than one-tenth of a milliarcsecond per year in order to help todistinguish significantly between models of the halo of the Galaxy. Theproper motion of the LMC cannot by itself distinguish between models ofthe Magellanic Stream.

Positional reference stars in the Magellanic Clouds
The equatorial coordinates are determined of 926 stars (mainly ofgalactic origin) in the direction of the Magellanic Clouds at the meanepoch T = 1978.4 with an overall accuracy characterized by the meanvalues of the O-C coordinates, Sa = 0.35 arcsec and Sd = 0.38 arcsec,calculated from the coordinates of the Perth reference stars. Thesevalues are larger than the accuracy expected for primary standard stars.They allow the new positions to be considered as those of reliablesecondary standard stars. The published positions correspond to anunquestionable improvement of the quality of the coordinates provided inthe current catalogs. This study represents an 'astrometric step' in thestarting of a 'Durchmusterung' of the Magellanic Clouds organized by deBoer (1988, 1989).

The peculiar UV and optical spectrum of the LMC supergiant HD 269216
Low-resolution IUE UV and optical observations are presented of HD269216, the visually brightest member of the LH 39 association in theLMC. Although the UV and optical line spectra are broadly consistentwith a B 8 Ia spectral type for HD 269216, the classification iscomplicated by several discrepancies. The observed UV continuum-fluxdistribution is much shallower than evident for 'normal' late Bsupergiants, with no pronounced Balmer jump observed in HD 269216. Broademission lines of hydrogen, with for example a FWHM of H-beta of about650 km/s, and possible He-I emission are peculiarities in the opticalspectrum. A stellar luminosity places HD 269216 in the same location inthe H-R diagram as R 71 in minimum state. The two stars are compared,and HD 269216 appears to warrant further monitoring as a possible SDor-type variable.

CO overtone emission from Magellanic Cloud supergiants
A sample of 63 high-luminosity LMC supergiants has been searched forfirst-overtone CO emission at 2.3 microns. Six new CO emission starshave been found, showing that CO first-overtone emission is a commoncharacteristic of luminous stars with dense circumstellar envelopes andhaving a wide range of stellar temperatures. Of the non-CO emissionstars, eight have strong He I emission. Nine stars show CO absorption at2.3 microns from late-type companions. CO emission was not found in anyof the three LMC S Doradus variables, and the stars which do show COemission are not known to be photometrically variable.

Mass loss in A and B supergiants and the extragalactic distance scale
Samples of B5 and A0 stars in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC)demonstrate the existence of tight correlations between luminosity andequivalent widths in the H-alpha and H-beta lines. The H-alpha line isin emission for stars brighter than M(v) = -7, and this easilyidentifiable feature should be detectable at the distances of nearbygroups of galaxies. The correlations imply that mass loss in A and Bsupergiants is strongly dependent on luminosity and therefore on stellarmass. Similar samples of stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) showssystematically smaller H-alpha emission and more scatter in therelationships between luminosity and H-alpha line strengths than werefound for the LMC stars. There is independent evidence that mass-lossrates are smaller in the SMC than in the LMC, and this fact probablyaccounts for the lower emission at H-alpha in the SMC stars. Thedifferences between the samples in the two clouds may be caused bydifferences in stellar chemical composition.
